C Correct answer
Explanation

Mountain gorillas are identified by their unique noseprints, which are as distinctive as human fingerprints. Each gorilla has a distinct pattern of wrinkles and ridges on their nose that remains unchanged throughout life. Researchers use these noseprints for long-term monitoring and identification. Pawprints and footprints are not distinctive enough, and toothprints cannot be safely observed.
