doh meant to vote for the bear,
Bears are the biggest terrestrial animal,
have 6 inch claws, gorillas have finger nails and run faster
That and a fully matured grizzly can take a magnum shot to the head a few times before penetration

Bear wins

wd chronic now the poll is totally fuxed.
i voted bear too but the gorilla is apparently very strong. some sources saying 8 times stronger than an olympic weight lifter and could lift a tonne over its head.

you can see a display of strength here YouTube - Gorilla Strength

i think bears are quite intelligent. i watched a docu last night of some crazy old bastard that started living with bears 6 months a year.

By the way, on topic(i know), i don't think there could be a definate winner here.

Bear has the brute force, but gorillas do too, claws vs opposable thumbs...meh...too hard to call.

I don't think they'd fight anyway, they'd probably just sit down and have a nice conversation about the climate change, and where there going for holiday this year.

gorialls dont use tools to fight in general :p
so the opposable thumb argument doesnt really hold water
It's like saying someone will beat someone with knifes in each hand in hand to hand combat

A gorrila grows up to about 6 ft tall and weights about 500 lbs
A bear grows to 10ft tall, and 1500 lbs

Bears are quicker, have bigger teeth (and jaws designed to crush bone), and stronger bite power

They can climb and run on all terrain so removes the gorillas advantage in that respect

Short of picking up a tree and swinging (which isnt exactly likely :p) they dont have a chance on paper at least

Gorilla would win. All day long. No contest. A bear has claws. Big deal. If the gorilla doesn't die from the bear's first attack gorilla will just rip the bear's head off.

apparently a bear has been witnessed killing a 1000lb animal with a single swipe to the back of the head. not sure which animal it was though.

cubs can also flip over a rock with the back of its hand that even 3 men could not pick up.

we will have to train the bear to use lazers tho, or maybe teach it kung fu

No, better
Teach the bear Mu-Tai and the gorilla kung fu
Make it a species and style battle!

No sure fire way to tell regardless of how much both weigh or how tall they are... you simply cannot say a gorilla would lose to a bear or a gorilla would beat a bear :p its true bears are very strong animals but gorillas are not exactly weak... gorillas can easily tear limbs from animals or break bones effortlessly in that respect... as for the bear razor sharp claws and strong jaws indeed the only problem with the claws and jaws is they have to be able to actually use them first otherwise they're both void.

There was an unfortunate story awhile back about a man that came across a silver back gorilla out in the wild... the guy died from massive injuries, his arm was ripped off and most of his bones were broken in his body.

both very powerful animals so i'm not going to vote on either.. situational which would win.

Yeah, you don´t simply mess with gorillas. Ive seen many people survive bears, but i don´t recon you survive one of those gorillas if they decide they want you dead. Some really buff people with a knife can take down a bear. But a gorilla, they´d destroy the bear.

After reading this, have to go with the bear.

Even if gorillas have the grabbing ability.

I love gorillas, and in many fights, a gorilla could pull out a win. But in this case, the bear would win.

First, you can't look at a bear vs something else, compared to a gorilla vs something else. It makes no sense, as you have to look at the strenght and weaknesses of the animals in question and how they pair up.

A large silverback would be around 6 ft, 500 lb lets even say 600 lb. (abnormally large)
A full sized Kodiak bear is 10.5 feet long and can weigh over 1,500 lbs. It dwarfs the gorilla.
A gorilla is very strong, but it's blows simply wont win it for him, and if the bear manage to grab him, it's over.
(I realize a grizzly is alittle smaller. But the outcome would most likely be the same.)

For a smaller scale "Who would win"; Japanese Bug Fights .com

Why before?

I'd assume that having someone eat your cock would be the perfect thing to put you in a good frame of mind for ripping the nearest things head off.. In this case our carefully planted russian bear!

That article's a pile of shite. He relates facial expressions with combat intelligence. What a dork.

:p he relates it to identifying a threat you monkey (puns galore :D)

Thats crap. Gorilla's are stronger than Chuck Norris, and everyone knows Chuck Norris can kill bears blindfolded with one arm behind his back

Neil Patrick harris disagree's, therefore i cant be true
