    Gorilla

    Their power to weight ratio is fucking wild, and they’re smart as hell

      I like to think I’m smarter than at least most gorillas, and I would lose a fight to a bear in the woods. The bear is a car with claws and thick hide trying to kill you. It’s faster and stronger than you. It also flights and kills to survive and eat often, gorillas do not.

      +1 to gorillas and no one else considering the intellect part.

      Like, guys. Humans are weak. We rule the world.

      I think bear can win on brute force, but, as soon as the gorilla sees the attack for what it is and considers a way to counter, the bear is toast.

        And I think most people are discrediting how smart bears are and over stating how smart gorillas are. They are not going to the fight with a spear or anything. And considering bears can be hard to take down quickly even with a gun. Yah gorilla doesn’t stand a chance.

        I don’t think intellect would get you very far.

        Eg. I’m a lot smarter than most bears, but I’m pretty sure that I’d still lose in a fight.
