Can a man kill a gorilla bare handed?

Answer 1

Yes, if provoked enough that he feels he has to defend his family with his life. Gorillas, being social animals, rely on the dominant male gorilla for protection against threats from predators and humans. Gorillas are very powerful animals, with the strength of ten men, and that in itself is justification enough for a gorilla to kill a man.

Answer 2

Barehanded, not even a slight chance because a gorilla is stronger than a man, but a man with a rifle can beat a gorilla easily. A man would also be able to kill a gorilla with a sharp knife as long as the gorilla does not attack him.

Answer 3

Absolutely not. Animals are much stronger than humans for their relative body weight. So, there is no way that any human, of any capacity, could kill a wild animal like a male silverback gorilla that weighs 400lbs with their bare hands. Animals are much stronger than humans by strength to body weight ratio. So a 400 lb gorilla that is more than twice as large as the average human male is about ten times stronger. The chances that a human could win a fight against a gorilla bare handed is virtually unthinkable.

Answer 4

A man can only kill a gorilla if he is shooting it with a gun or attacked with a sharp enough knife. A man with a knife would be easy to kill a gorilla if the gorilla is not moving that much or is in a lazy mode.

Answer 5

It was customary in some african tribes for the leader to have to kill a lion with his bare hands. This was done by submerging one's arm into the throat of the lion and suffocating it.

Answer 6

Probably.
