The silverback gorilla is the tank of nature, all power, anger, and sheer instinct. But, apparently, he is far from invincible.In the wild, there are animals who would not only emerge victorious, but would finish the battle before it even began.While the silverback gorilla is a symbol of brute power, it is not the last boss of the animal kingdom. There are a number of beasts, such as crocodiles and elephants, and poisonous snakes, that surpass it in terms of strength, strategy, and deadliness.ALSO READ: Amid rumors of a rift with Taylor Swift, Blake Lively may be feuding with another A-list celebrity, and it could be due to her legal battle with Justin BaldoniThese five creatures wouldn't merely pummel a gorilla; they'd annihilate it before it had any idea what was happening. The gorilla isn't the ultimate boss, though, which is the twist in this Netflix nature special.The apex predator is not him. Here are five animals that would do more than simply beat a silverback; they would bury him, body him, and then make fun of him on social media.1. Saltwater CrocodileWith an average of death rolls, ambush tackles, and bites of the damned, the saltwater crocodile is a prehistoric murder lizard with a kill total of 100. It is a heartless executioner who patiently and silently waits for the water to burst and something to vanish forever. It's like being clamped by the gates of hell, breaking physics and bringing everything to an end with a bite force of 3,700 PSI. The gorilla wouldn't realise it's a fight until it's halfway digested if they ever met in the wild.2. African Bush ElephantDespite its reputation for wisdom and grandeur, the African bush elephant has the capacity to do serious damage. It is a four-legged, feeling continent rather than a predator. Elephants can uproot trees, flip trucks, and kill lions when they're feeling good. African elephants and gorillas fight like trumpets at a funeral, with the elephants crying as they crush the gorilla.3. Inland TaipanThe Inland Taipan, sometimes referred to as The Silent Extinction, is an Australian taipan that can cause 100 human funerals' worth of neurotoxins in a single bite. It can take down a whole rugby team, including a gorilla, and it doesn't growl, charge, or wrestle. After giving Kong a few milligrammes of death and tapping him on the ankle, the taipan leaves the arena wearing sunglasses.4. Grizzly BearWith claws longer than your WiFi password and a maximum weight of 680 kg, the Grizzly Bear is a fierce and angry gymrat. They can rip bone and bark with their claws and are difficult to eradicate. They mostly eat salmon and are surprisingly healthy for their size. The WWE cage match ends when the Grizzly Bear goes full Yellowstone, leaving only fur, blood, and Joe Rogan whispering, Bro... did you see that? The bear may take some jabs during the match.5.LeopardLeopards are silent killers, ambushes, and unsolved mysteries rather than fair fighters. They have been known to snatch baby gorillas in the wild. A silverback becomes a NatGeo crime scene if it becomes distracted. Unlike gorillas, who may throw punches, leopards rewrite the ending and throw surprises rather than rumbles. FAQsCan a silverback gorilla defeat these five animals in a fight?No chance. Each of these animals either outperforms the gorilla in terms of strength, stealth, or sheer determination.Is the gorilla the most powerful animal in the wild?It's powerful, yes, but these five examples show that it's not at the top of the food chain.
