    Relatable. You know how it is when your sleeves get wet and they kinda stick to your wrists or flop around getting other stuff stuck to them… ugh.

      They have different muscles than we do, good for fast strong reactions but not endurance.

          He only has energy to rip you to pieces and smash them repeatedly until there’s just a large red stain on the ground for like 5-10 minutes. Then he’ll be out of breath and that’s when you scoop yourself up somehow and strike.

        Yes but that doesn’t answer the question. How do they have such big muscles without having a high protein intake?

          “Gorillas don’t need to eat protein, because they grow their own protein in the bacteria that thrive inside of them. The gorilla consumes the vegetation to feed the bacterial colonies of their microbiome, and then absorbs the protein formed by the bacteria as they feast on the cellulose fibers of the vegetation”

          https://medium.com/@westwise/how-does-a-gorilla-get-so-strong-75c68edd3c26#:~:text=Gorillas don’t need to,cellulose fibers of the vegetation .

          Tldr Gorillas apparently have better probiotics than we do. Also they eat so much more than us, even relative to bodymass, 18kg per day of biomass, which is equivalent to a human eating 9kg of biomass a day. I can eat a lot, but I don’t think I could put away over 15+ pounds of any kind of food in a day.

            So what your telling me is if I get a fecal transplant from a gorilla, then eat leaves all day, I’ll be jacked as shit?

              No, first you must wrestle the gorilla to the ground so the bacteria recognize you as their true master. Then the fecal transplant.

              Good luck.
