Question

Which would win in a fight? A full grown male orangutan or a human?

Answer 1

The monkey they are pretty jacked.

Answer 2

orangutan,

unless if the human was HUGE and was pure muscle, maybe they could survive. Orangutangs are brutal ( as with most apes)

Answer 3

I doubt you'd even need to pull from the crowd of MALE orangutans to beat up a human. . . . a FEMALE orangutan, if protecting her young, would quickly convert a human into a small pile of hair, blood, and teeth. . . in a matter of seconds.

Answer 4

Mini me and Shack are both human, you have to be a little more specific.  Either way, I say the ape takes them both.

Answer 5

humans. we hav bigger schlongs.

Answer 6

the orangutan

Answer 7

Human,

Eventhough the orangutan might bite   >.<, were pretty smart

Answer 8

The ape easy. They are as strong as three men.

Answer 9

I say the Orangutan.

Answer 10

Human. We have guns.

Answer 11

The orangutan would win. have you not seen clive in the Clint eastwood movies he's awsome.

Answer 12

Hmm, that depends on the human's strength.  Since an orangutan spends its life throwing itself from tree to tree, I would guess that the only type of human that could beat an orangutan in a hand-to-hand fight would be very athletic.

Answer 13

Im saying orangutan because they are usually bigger than us and are very muscular .

Answer 14

Despite the fact that we (humans) are incredibly "smart" when compared to other beings; we are incredibly weak when compared to other primates. Gorillas, Chimps, and Orangutangs could seriously injure us or kill us if we ever got into a physical brawl.

The fact is, they are naturally much more muscular than us. Although they may not look like it, Gorillas, and Orangutangs are significantly stronger than we are.

Answer 15

Ha, ha!  With boxing gloves or without?  Actually an orqangutan is a very powerful animal and much stronger than a man.  The man is obviously smarter and any really smart man would not be dumb enough to tangle with an orangutan!

Answer 16

Every once in awhile, the biology degree comes in handy.

An adult male would have a very hard time fighting off a 70 lbs baboon.  An orangutan can weigh over 200 lbs and would make quick work of an average adult male.

Keep in mind that these animals may appear docile in captivity, but in the wild can be quite violent when approached in an aggressive manner or to protect territory.

Here is a video of a chimp throwing a man around:

Could you imagine what a larger animal can do?

Answer 17

it would depend if the human had a gun or not!  Seriously though most primates are much stronger than humans - in particular the Gorilla and the chimps. A male orangutan is definitely stronger than a human - however they are gentle animals and chances are it wouldn't fight even if it was attacked - unlike a chimp which would tear your arms off and beat you with the wet ends.
