Demonic gorillas are powerful creatures found in the Crash Site Cavern. Two of them are fought during Monkey Madness II, in the penultimate stage of the fight. After the quest is completed, more demonic gorillas can be found in the caverns alongside their tortured brethren. They are primarily killed for their zenyte shard and ballista component drops.

Demonic gorillas count as monkeys and black demons for the progression of Slayer tasks. As they are demons, they are susceptible to the effects of demonbane weapons, excluding holy water. Demonic gorillas cannot be damaged with a Dwarf multicannon.

Players can check their kill count by reading Nieve's gravestone next to Lumo at the opening in the fence.

Demonic gorillas use all three combat styles to attack, and will change combat styles after missing three hits in that attack style. They are also capable of using protection prayers, and will switch to the player's last used combat style against them when they have been dealt damage at least four times, and been dealt 70 or more damage. Therefore, players must bring at least two different combat styles to kill them. Though they have a 35% elemental weakness to water spells, they are most often killed with melee and ranged.

The gorillas also have a special attack where they send a rock crashing down at the player's position, which can be easily avoided by moving one tile away from the current spot when the attack was initiated. If struck by this rock, the player will take 33% of their current health as damage; a single rock cannot kill the player by itself as a result.

(Warning: The player can be hit by other players' rocks.)

Note that the gorilla's prayers can be bypassed through the use of Verac's set but cannot be bypassed with special attacks. In addition, the healing effects of equipment like Guthan the Infested's equipment or Saradomin Godsword will still take place even through prayer, as well as the defence reduction from the Elder Maul and Dragon Warhammer. Ironman accounts will not lose kill credit if another account applies the defence reduction if the gorilla is praying protect from melee.

The following money making guide is available for demonic gorillas:

Drop rates are estimated based on 14,768,867 samples from the Drop Rate Project, unless otherwise cited.

The average demonic gorilla kill is worth 67,661.00, including zenyte shard drops.

Excluding zenyte shards, the average kill is worth 19,667.00.

Excluding zenyte shards, the average high alch value per kill is 15,021.00.

There are 2 Combat Achievement tasks (totalling 8 points) available for demonic gorillas.

• Demonic gorilla concept art in RuneFest 2015 reveals.
• The login screen upon the release of Monkey Madness II, featuring a demonic gorilla.
• The 3D printed demonic gorilla given to the login screen competition winner.

• Demonic gorillas are similar to the tormented demons; both use all three forms of combat, protection prayers and drop items that are used to create more powerful equipment.
• Demonic gorillas' prayers were slightly changed several days after release due to several glitches happening with specific weapons, notably the Saradomin godsword.
