![]() ![]() I don't think the gorilla would be able to either, so I don't think the gorilla's intelligence would be much of an advantage here. Bear keepers say that it is very difficult to read a bear's mind, because of the lack of facial expression. The gorilla is more intelligent than the bear, but the gorilla has more facial expressions. Once again, the bear has the advantage to the bear. The bear has the advantage here.īoth have powerful upper limbs, but the bear has long claws, whereas the gorilla has nails. The bear is more likely to use the canines to bite and kill prey, while gorillas are practically herbivorous. The bear is being genuinely ferocious and has the advantage here, as it is less likely to back down.īoth have powerful canine teeth and use these mainly in threat displays. The gorilla's ferocity is a bluff to deter potential adversaries. The gorilla is mainly vegetarian and rarely feeds on animal matter, whereas a grizzly can kill a moose with one swipe of its paw. This will benefit the gorilla more than if there were two full-grown animals fighting, as the bear would be heavier. If the gorilla and grizzly are the same size, it would involve a full-grown male gorilla fighting a rather small grizzly bear. I think a fight would be very unlikely, but if they were to fight, I believe that the bear holds most of the trump cards. I can't really see the grizzly turning tail. It will back down if the aggressor stays where it is. A gorilla will usually only attack if an aggressor runs away. If anything, I think the gorilla would back down if the bear did not move away and I can't really imagine a bear being put off by a gorilla chest-beating or hooting. A male gorilla will go through various threat displays and will avoid fighting if he can. Grizzly bears rarely attack people and prefer to avoid confrontation. I think that if they ever came into contact, they would avoid one another. This means that a gorilla would not adapt well to the bear's habitat and the bear would not adapt well to the gorilla's habitat. ![]() The grizzly bear prefers open habitats, such as tundra, alpine meadows and coastlines. ![]() Most gorillas inhabit lowland tropical rainforest, but some live in bamboo forest and montane rainforest. Gorillas live in Africa, while grizzly bears live in North America, so there is no likelihood of them coming into contact with one another in the wild, unless one of them were introduced into the habitat of the other. In fact, chimpanzees are far more dangerous and will kill each other, as well as hunting in groups and tearing monkeys and antelopes apart. This is especially true for gorillas, which are far more peaceful than the ‘King Kong' image suggests. Please note that grizzly bears and gorillas have reputations for ferocity, but these are probably exaggerated. ![]()
