Gorillas

[KTT]

Gorillas are our nearest relatives, about 99,5% genetic identically with us humans.
The are big and strong without eating lots of proteins. They eat mostly green leafs. Also chimpanzees, they are much stronger than we humans without whey protein an things like that all day.

Kids with downsyndrom are also wayyy stronger than kids without.

I knew about the Chimpanzee, but I didn't know this about the Gorillas. I knew they were related but not so closely.

and I thought I wasn't going to learn a damn thing today.

Genetic identity
The genetic difference of the gorillas to the primate of the type homo sapiens amounts to 2.3 percent. Within the African apes the family line of the gorillas branched out before about nine million years. The vegetarian living gorillas are the biggest and strongest apes. Adult men become about 170 centimetres and about 200 kilogrammes.The cycle of the female gorillas agrees with 28 days to that of the human one. After a gestation period of nine months a gorilla's baby comes into the world. More seldom twins are also born. An almost human family planning.

we may be 99.5% genetically identical... but our morphology and physiology are different.

small differences in genes can create animals that are worlds apart in many aspects.

Bears and dogs are an excellent example of what you're saying. Although Dogs and Bears are very similar genetically, they are very different in size and strength. Dogs in the wild eat meat. Bears eat herbs, forbs, fruits, berries, nuts, grass, roots, etc, along with meat. Yet bears are bigger and stronger.

You share a good bit of genetic material with lettuce also, some posit as high as 40%.

 

[bigraf]

Key word here is Genetics, no amount of protein intake changes that. But they are currently doing some heavy gene altering research which is so far not even close to being safe on humans but hey maybe someday right?

well here we go. i wish it wasnt so late cause i dont have time to give a lecture in basic biology. where to start.....

this argument is COMPLETELY invalid. did you ever see a gorilla? did you notice they have HUGE stomachs? they arent fat, they have about 5 times the length of small intestines that we do. thats cause they are herbivores, they are biologically desgined to eat plant material. humans are omnivores, we are designed to eat plants and meat. meat is much easier to digest, so we dont need that lengthy small intestine. cats (that includes big cats) are carnivores, they are deigned to eat meat soley. ever see how sleek they are? (dont imagine your fat lazy housecat either) lions and such are sleek cause they have an even shorter small intestine, cause they only eat meat. what all this means is that gorillas are able to assimilate virtually all the nutrients of plant material, whereas we cant. so the same plant food for them is much more nutritious, cause they are able to extact everything from it, we cant. besides this, they eat constantly all day. an adult male is 600lbs average. can you imagine the amount of calories they eat? shit if i ate 10000+ calories per day of carbs, i bet i would be getting more protein than i eat now. not to mention they assimilate it much better than we do.

as far as that 99.5% DNA thing, most people have no concept of how complex DNA is. 99.5% dont mean crap, as far as comparing DNA a 0.001 % difference is VAST.

we share 50% of our DNA with a bananna. yes a bananna. 50% is 1/2 right, so we are 1/2 bananna? it dont work that way, not even close.

** interesting fact, cats eat meat. what major vitamin is lacking from their diet? vitamin C. did you know cats make their own vitamin C? thats pretty cool

We didnt get totally screwed....Gorilla's penises are about 1.25 inches while humans average around 6 inches.

(the only reason I know this is Playboy did an article on penile enchancement...not that i read the articles....SHIT!)

And as long as you are just throwing facts
out there . . .

It is not unusual for a mature, adult male gorilla,
weighing approximately 400 lbs to have to have
wrists that measure 13 inches (8 inch wrists on
a man is considered huge), with a neck that
measures 33 inches. And they can very easily
do a 1 arm pull-up.

Yea but human penises average out to be over 3 times larger than that of full sized grown male gorillas. Score 100000 for humans

Thats' because we have 50% DNA of the banana.

GUYS, you can not compare apes to us inthe regards to protein intake. apes are still capable of producing the needed aminos without them being in their diet.. we are not.. the animal planet channel had a very interesting show on this a while back..

yup there massive, if you shaved one down they would make ronnie coleman look like a little kid,there like 5 foot 5 450 pounds , some are even bigger lol
their ripped to shreds too. even male chimps are massive, someone on here posted a picture of a shaved down one and i remember his arms in particular being huge

plus people misrepresent gorillas as total vegatarians they are not, it has been shown they eat tons of insects on those plants as well,which does give they a large amount of animal protein. chimps are not even close to vegetarians they eat other monkeys and are absolutley brutal about how they kill them, tearing them limb from limb.
gorillas are very peaceful animals not chimps, they have wars amongst themselves and will slaughter whole other goups of chimps if given the chance, there a lot like us in the bad characteristics as well

 

[BOOMSHAKER]

I was wondering why my wife kept calling me a big hairy ape!? Now I know why!

I think I got 70%...
