    I’m going Wolf personally. I might have a chance with a wolf, gorillas are stupid strong. No thanks.

    Wolf 100%. It’s without its pack and I’d have some chance to fight it off. A gorilla would tear me in half.

      You’d probably have some chance of becoming part of its pack if you were careful.

      Or it’d just rip your throat out…

      Gorillas will tear off your face and testicles AFAIK. Just imagine the depraved shit a human would do to you assuming they could get away with it without repercussion.

      They wouldn’t hesitate to fuck you up.

        Gorillas are WAY more chill than chimpanzees. Just dint make eye contact and be respectful to the gorilla and it will leave you alone. They know that they are capable of fucking you up, and they know you know.

    Wolf attacks on humans are rare but common enough to have their own Wikipedia page, but there’s no record of wild gorillas killing anyone.

    Which means they’re either super chill, or really fucking sneaky about it.

      IIRC gorillas are indeed pretty chill if you respect their territorial instincts, as opposed to, say, a chimp that might try to kill you more or less on a whim

        for some reason i find it funny how the animals more related to humans are the more ruthlessly violent ones. apparently bonobos are much more violent than chimps, and orangutans are less violent than gorillas

        it makes me wonder how aggressive early australopithecus was compared. apparently they did a lot of cannibalism so probably at least slightly more than non-australopithecus humans. they probably weren’t even close to as aggressive as chimpanzees considering how significantly weaker they were though

    I am inexperienced with gorillas or any other primate

    Wolf. Wolves are naturally shy of humans, and while gorillas are also, gorillas are also much bigger and stronger. If one decides it’s mad at you it will pull your limbs off. Or worse. A wolf will try to rip you apart and tear your throat out if it’s mad at you, but since it’s in a different weight class you might actually stand a chance if you curl up in the fetal position or whack it in the face with a rock.

    This takes me back to “gorilla, man, gun,” which was basically the baptist youth camp version of rock, paper, scissors. (It probably exists outside of that context, that’s just where I always played it shrug)

      How does that work? Gorilla kills man? Gun kills Gorilla? but what’s the man/gun outcome? Because gun also kills man

          Yeah, but there needs to be an answer, whether grounded in logic or not. Is it man uses gun? Is it gun kills man, and they don’t understand the game?

            Gorilla kills man, because obvious Man wins against gun because it’s an inanimate object Gun shoots gorilla because it doesn’t understand what it is and accidentally shoots itself.

            If you’re the kid that lived behind me in my childhood, you wrap the rocks in paper, light them on fire, then try to them at the BBQ pit in my backyard. If anything, the rock and paper combine into a more powerful weapon.

    Well Todd, it looks like Wolf might be the clear winner in today’s matchup but what I think spectators are really want to know is how the next round will fare.
