• Ultimate Showdown Discussion: Grizzly Bear vs. Silverback Gorilla

Gorilla would throw some barrels at that motherfucker.
Can we get like a size comparison picture? This does sound pretty close to me. I'm leaning towards the bear, but think if the silverback is beefy, and the bears had a bad winter, the silverback would own.
This is going to turn into another spam thing like that badage boys.
[QUOTE=Demode;16441528]You guys are all assuming the gorilla is smart enough to make these tactics...[/QUOTE] Well I really doubt that the gorilla is going to stand there picking its butt while the grizzly tries to slash its face.
Early Californian settlers would stage fights between various animals and record the results. The bears always won. Even against lions, the bears would just crush the skulls of their adversaries.
ITT: People vote for their favourite animal. Grizzly though, it's bigger and more powerful, possibly even faster.
I'll take both, at the same time.

[QUOTE=Uberslug;16446699]Grizzly bears can run up to and I believe a little over 40 miles an hour.[/QUOTE] [b][u]Wikipedia:[/u][/b] In spite of their massive size, these bears can run at speeds of up to 56 kilometres per hour (35 miles per hour). That is a crazy fast / scary speed.
Who ever lands the first good punch is the winner. If the gorilla hits with his first punch and puts his weight + muscle behind it, it can break the bears ribcage. If, on the other hand, the bear charges in as fast as he can and just slashes + bites the gorilla, and possibly even tipping him over, the bear is far ahead.
Gorilla's are quite dumb, they would just stare, confused if there aren't any ladies to impress.
I have to say that the grizzly bear would win, due to the fact that it is practically designed to kill things. Sure, it's an omnivore, but it has long claws and very sharp canines. When a Grizzly fights, its ferocity is genuine, and it knows how to kill and has all of the tools to carry out the act. Gorillas are very strong, but when they do display aggression, it's usually meant to prevent fighting, as they really aren't meant for prolonged aggressive confrontations with predators. In my mind, the fight is sort of like a trained assassin up against a body builder or the like. The body builder may be stronger than the assassin in some respects, but the assassin will prevail due to their training (in the Grizzly's case, instinct), and their ability to use their weapons in an effective manner (claws, fangs, etc.). Also, gorillas aren't that dumb. Female gorillas have been shown to actually use tools in controlled environments, just not with the same prevalence as chimps.
The bear wins, the bear... always wins. [editline]03:22AM[/editline] the gorilla is intelligent enough to use it's own shit as a weapon though so i guess it's a close fight.

Gorilla wins. Why is there a king kong but no giant grizzly bear?

A bear would destroy the chimp. Seriously, I'd rather fight a fucking monkey than a bear any day. Bears are scary shit.
I think it would depend. If the gorilla got the drop on the bear, the gorilla would probably win and might even live for a considerable length of time after the fight. However if it was anything resembling a head on clash, I believe the bear would win. If it were in a tightly forested area however, the gorilla would probably have a better chance because they are more at home running and brawling in the trees. This also depends on the size of the bear- a large, more muscle/fat bound bear would be able to take far more punishment than a lighter one. But assuming the bear is at maximum size, then I think even if the gorilla did get the drop on the bear there is a good chance the bear would win.
I think humans should artificially clone animals (sex dependant on which one is stronger in that species) and make em fight, just for the sake of ranking em in order of danger.... and watching em. but in the name of SCIENCE! I personally believe that in a fight between the gorilla and the bear it would be pretty even, so IMO 50% of the time the bear will get in a pretty devestating blow 50% of the time the gorilla will pull some freaky smart shit like apposable fingers or sticks. Edit: WOAH New thought: What if animals start evolving smartly the way we did however many thousand years ago. So that like fish commercial could be like 2134(or whenever is plausible for this sort of thing to happen) when the bears have evolved to where they can walk for a bit and develop fighting techniques and somewhat understand humans, but not yet being able to talk in a human like language. Primitive societies develop. Also with the gorilla, same thing but with maybe primitive buildings and primitive language.
Neither, they are good friends and would never hurt each other.
