Bears have knife-like claws. Gorillas have arms like bats. Discuss...

I was out shopping with the family and I just so happened to stumble upon this very scenario.    I think you guys might be surprised at the answer.       That s

OK, the bear is going to weigh about 100 pounds or so more and be taller (~25% overall size advantage).  Not a huge disparity in size unless you go with one of the giants of either species.

 

And who cares about the females.  We are obviously talking about two good size males.

Anything is possible if we look at all the size combinations when adding in the females.  Like a grizzly female protecting her cubs form a male gorilla or visa versa.

 

I say set it up.  Go get the combatants.   I'll pay to see it.

 

And if your taking about good sized males you’re talking about twice as big for the grizzly

True but now we aren't talking typical or average.  So if the discussion is the biggest grizzle in the world against the biggest gorilla maybe the grizzly has the better chance.  I didn't see that in the thread title. 

You’re still way off. 

 

Average gorilla .. 142 kg

average grizzly... 273kg.. 

 

almost a 300lb difference

 

...and that’s for the MUCH smaller inland grizzly. Coastal averages another 100+ kg.

I was actually wondering if a gorilla could even hurt or injure a bear.

 

I also saw multiple stories where a bear basically decapitated moose or deer.

 

I also read where leopards have been known to kill  full grown gorillas who aren't with the pack. Leopard isn't even close to a Grizzly 

Wait so leopards can beat gorillas??? But a gorillas so big and strong! No way the smaller more agile animal could actually have advantages right

How about a bigger, more agile animal?

This thread is of course stupid cause both bears and gorillas are smart enough to ignore each other and eat the squishy idiots trying to make them fight.

the only way grizzlys lose is if they are in the jungle and run into a pack of gorillas. gorillas will stick together and there will be 100 beating up on the bear. 

 

if you reversed it, its possible the gorilla can get away. if he clumbs a tree and waits out the grizzleys. 

 

1 on 1 the gorilla is fucked
