Orangutans stronger than Gorillas?

It probably is pound for pound, as every animal is different. As in one of the comments, ants are pretty strong. They can carry much more than what they way on their own. =D The orangutan is pretty strong, mostly because it's arboreal, and hangs from trees, and lives in the tree's, causing it to have some pretty good upper body strength. The orangutan is smaller than the silver-back gorilla, however, meaning it would weigh less. The silver-back gorilla is much larger, and weighs a bit more. They are pretty strong as well, because they are bigger, and weigh more. It would pretty unfair to say whom is stronger just because they can do something better. If an ant, a gorilla, and an orangutan would be the same size, the ant would win, because of it's amazing ability to carry much more than what it weighs. =D You do learn something new everyday.
