I agree with the male gorilla thing. I think it's a term used to describe a physical characteristic of some male gorillas, namely white silver hair on their back. It's not something that all male gorillas have.
Also rhebok antelope are South African, not South American.

Having said that, I knew what you meant.

I missed #3 and #8 (I should have had that one but had brain lock). Guessed truth or crap.

Keep 'em coming.

A silverback is an adult male gorilla, typically more than 12 years of age and named for the distinctive patch of silver hair on his back. A silverback gorilla has large canine teeth that come with maturity. Blackbacks are sexually mature males of up to 11 years of age.
Silverbacks are the strong, dominant troop leaders. Each typically leads a troop (group size ranges from 5 to 30) and is in the center of the troop's attention, making all the decisions, mediating conflicts, determining the movements of the group, leading the others to feeding sites and taking responsibility for the safety and well-being of the troop. Blackbacks may serve as backup protection.

Hope this helps.......
