Didn't realize silverbacks had to do a written portion of the fight
They don't have to be the smartest or even necessarily the strongest. But imagine a troop of gorillas following a gorilla without, seemingly, a single useful trait. He needs them to even survive, takes advantage of all of them, pretends like he's tough, takes all of the resources, isn't remotely physically fit and won't release the Epstein files because he's in them. You would not see that in the wild.
Yeah, but you would see one lead the pack who knows how to socially manipulate them and play off others weaknesses.
Don't elephant seals basically do this?
The largest silverback takes a look at the written question.
“If hooman come with small bunch of banana from east and other hooman come with large banana bunch from west, who get the banana?”
He will not lead the pack today. He will need to come back better prepared if he wants to stand a chance to challenge again.
Technically speaking their slam poetry duels are written portions. You didn't think they're making it up on the spot, right?
