Gorilla vs. Grizzly
- Thread starter Olaf

We need to get a liger involved somehow.
It's a horrible photoshop, lol.
Yeah but you see the gorilla has thumbs and is fast. So it could probably just punch the bear really hard and kill it /sObviously a full grown male grizzly. They're untouchable and terrifying when they actually attack.
The bear would demolish the gorilla. Even the gorilla would know this and would probably rather run than fight. You'd have to put the two in a cage and even then the gorilla would probably resign to its fate after the bear got a good hit in.
Human fights, athletes have very close muscle density so comparing them with each other based on weight is logical, but as I said the muscle density in gorillas and chimpanzees are just ridiculous, a normal chimpanzee weight around 50 KG, and if anyone even weighting 120 KG would be stupid enough to pick a fight with one, they are in for a treat.
Its also because Chimpanzees aren't fighting for sport. They go for your eyes and balls. Even if they were the same muscle density as us, the fact they're wild animals without any of our human quibbles about violence and such means they have the edge.
How do you think a Gorilla could even hurt a pissed off grizzly? Its teeth probably won't do much. And grabbing onto a bear that weighs over 300 pounds more than you probably isn't a good idea.

Yeah, but my point is that weight is a significant factor in strength in a fight, and this isn't even close in terms of weight. That weight is what a gorilla is going to have to deal with when fighting a bear.
Grizzly bears weigh 800 lbs, can toss around 700lb dumpsters like they're beach balls, can run faster than gorillas (max at 40mph vs 25mph) and can bite through cast-iron. And their necks are too thick for a gorilla to choke.
Meanwhile gorillas get punked by 190lb leopards on the regular.
It has a decent bite force in the animal kingdom, if it managed to bite a grizzly in the snout, the grizzly would pay attention.
But yeah, its not winning that fight.
This is it. Gorillas actually do get killed by leopards quite often. Bite or swipe, the grizzly could kill the gorilla without much effort
He could just sit on the grizzly and it would be over.This is the original version of that photo.
He was 922 pounds during that Guinness Book visit.
Why wouldn't you do a black bear versus a gorilla? That might at least be vaguely interesting. A gorilla versus a grizzly isn't even a fight.
Ok since that's cleared up...what about grizzly vs that hippo? We all know how dangerous hippos are but I've never seen one tear shit up if you know what I mean...
Realistically the bear would win more often than not due to the fact they fight and kill shit all day, every day to live. Also, claws would fuck up a gorilla and they are not used to getting shredded and having to deal.
I would vote, the gorilla would run away before the bear could kill it actually.

for the people picking gorilla
what exactly do y'all think the gorilla is going to actually do
punch the bear to death? like, how does that work
(I still wanna know what people think about a top-end estimate gigantopithecus's odds though)

This isn't remotely true.
Grizzly would win by a landslide, no doubt, but for the most part they are chill animals that eat fish and berries and shit.
