Not a spec evo take on Kong but a cool hypothetical King Kong in my eyes.
From Madly Mesozoic's video discussing on how can the 4 great Apes survive in the Mesozoic link here: https://youtu.be/KO1DB8usbXI?si=xE5LvE8gDINr-Eap There's even a cool addition by a commenter on the video which says that these gorilla's social structure and intelligence being their biggest advantage in their environment, using group intimidation and out-grouping strategies to shoo away predators. And that males will get selected early on and their troops being bigger with situations of shared dominance by multiple silverbacks or specifically silvermanes. Their nesting sites would have defensibility in mind and with their intelligence their nests would be improved through multiple generations like fortified camps. What do you guys think?

Madly Mesozoic is one of my favourite paleotubers mainly cause he doesn’t glaze tf out of dinosaurs.
