To start, the grizzly’s weight advantage packs quite a punch if the bear lands a clean hit with the force of its weight. Gorilla ≈ opposable thumbs, superior maneuvering abilities (jumping), faster and more efficient climbing skills, far better and more likely to use projectilesĪs you can see, most stats lean heavily either way, but there’s really no conclusion to be drawn from these projections without further analysis into the implications of them. Grizzly ≈ Claws, great swimming skills, incredible sense of smell, faster sprint WEIGHT- Grizzly ≈ 800 lbs., Gorilla ≈ 300-485 lbs.īITE FORCE- Grizzly ≈ 1,160 PSI, Gorilla ≈ 1,300 PSI HEIGHT- Grizzly ≈ 5-8 feet, Gorilla ≈ 4-6 feet TOP SPEED- Grizzly≈ 35mph, Gorilla ≈ 20mph (Statistics on the participants’ strength as a whole both vary and are somewhat lacking due to difficulty of acquiring such data, but virtually all reliable statistics place gorillas much higher as far as physical strength goes.) GENERAL STRENGTH (LIFT)- Grizzly up to ≈ 1100lbs, Gorilla up to ≈ 1,800 lbs. Let’s lay out some numbers for reference: Fight ends when either animal dies or is otherwise incapacitated.No other animals are present to interfere, and no human technology is obtainable to either participant.Both animals have the intention of fighting, and there is no chance of backing down.This is a head to head confrontation, therefore both animals begin within each other’s line of sight.There are trees, some foliage, a bit of open field area, changes in elevation, a river, and a small, still body of water. The fight will take place in an environment in which aspects of both animals’ natural habitat are present.But before we can go any further, let’s lay out the rules, along with some basic numbers. It’s high time that I take it upon myself to put this discussion to bed once and for all, and deliver a well researched, heavily analyzed thesis on who would win: a grizzly bear, or a silverback gorilla. Whenever I engage in this conversation, I am left dumbfounded, saddened, and questioning the educational system of this country. Let’s get one thing straight here: I have had enough of this silly debate.
