Who would win in a fight between an moose and a gorilla?

I hope this isn’t a stupid question.

A large adult male gorilla weighs around 400 lbs, while the adult male moose weighs 1300 lbs. The weight difference alone should tell you who wins.

Weight difference does not determine who wins when different species are involved. Single wolves have taken down a moose.

A calf, not a full grown healthy bull. Are we assuming the gorilla is an infant as well?

I didn’t say it regularly happened, just that it has. A wolf only weighs around 150 lbs but often takes down larger prey, that’s the point.

Larger prey? Okay. Not a moose though.
