It is hard to guess what a Drill (animal) weights. But we have the answer:
An adult Drill (animal) (Mandrillus leucophaeus) on average weights 14.23 kg (31.37 lbs).
The Drill (animal) is from the family Cercopithecidae (genus: Mandrillus). It is usually born with about 720 grams (1.59 lbs). They can live for up to 33.33 years. When reaching adult age, they grow up to 70 cm (2′ 4″). Usually, Drill (animal)s have 1 babies per litter.
As a reference: An average human weights in at 62 kg (137 lbs) and reaches an average size of 1.65m (5′ 5″). Humans spend 280 days (40 weeks) in the womb of their mother and reach around 75 years of age.
The drill (Mandrillus leucophaeus) is a primate of the family Cercopithecidae (Old World monkeys), related to baboons and even more closely to mandrills.
