I mean the full on ones like the Chimps



Ok, chimps are actually in the same taxonomic family as humans.

But addressing the question you are trying to ask, no one is beating a full grown, male chimp. You'll find a lot of ridiculous notions about a chimpanzee's strength online, but the reality is it's about 150% that of a human. What chimps also have is sharp and elongated canine teeth with very strong jaw muscles, and the way they fight is to go for the opponents eyes, testicles, and hands with those teeth. If a human fights a chimpanzee (more so if it's a male), the human won't want to survive the encounter.

Humans are smarter than Chimps. That's why they live in trees and eat twigs while we live in homes and eat bulls.

Besides how would one get hold of Daicos anyway, he'd just bork 'em.

Humans being smarter than chimps is why we don't fight them. A chimp will always win, absent of a technological advantage to the human (i.e. a gun). And they don't eat twigs, they use them as tools to get the food they want.

Humans being smarter than chimps incidentally is due to early hominids (still after the most recent common ancestor with chimps) learning to swim, having a greater variation in diet, and learning to use fire to cook meat. All factors in the cognitive revolution.

Doesn't matter how powerful they are, he would outsmart them.

BTW, they do eat twigs, and insects and each others shit.

Chimps use twigs as tools to obtain termites, more than as a food source itself (my mistake earlier, as they do so on occasion). They also use twigs to clean detritus from out of their teeth. Chimpanzees are omnivorous, though most of their diet consists of vegetable matter and insects; when they eat from a tree, it tends to be fruit and roots.

The only way to outsmart a chimpanzee in your ludicrous scenario is to avoid them. They will not spend all day fighting each other like you seem to think they do. While chimpanzees are one of the few species that kill their own kind for pleasure (humans topping that list), if they are all from the same troop with an established hierarchy they will not do so, and will focus upon the interloper, i.e. Nick Daicos.

is this where we find out you have a PhD in Zoology or something? A pleasant detour from the usual drivel produced by the Bay!

Just a BSc in it (it was my third degree).
