Pick two to defend you, the rest attack

I'm guessing if there were pissed off gorillas and lions and brown bears charging at me I would be pissing my pants at too hard of a rate to aim and fire properly.
Part of me says gorillas because they like to injure you and then eat your innards while you are still alive. That’s a nasty way to go. The rats should buy you time as they could team up.
What state are we in? Want to know if it’s a gun friendly state so the hunter has an auto or at least a burst gun or he’s sitting there with a bolt action. If auto have him pop the gorillas first and lions.

While i dont think the hunter could take down enough without a semi auto rifle to be great on defense, a hunter with a gun is definitely enough to kill me on the other team. So i think you definitely need the hunter on your side. Then probably the 10,000 to rats on my side. That is a huge number.
Rats and the hunter, but I dont think survival is likely.
The hunter would need to take out all the large predators the rats cant quickly kill. I can probably dodge buffaloes for a while. Im basically useless since I can only kill hawks with my bare hands, maybe a wolf, if I had some body armor.

The rifle is really unfair. You can’t not pick it because you can’t defend against all the others if you are also defending against the rifle. It would pick apart your team from distance while everything else just tanked your defense.
So I guess the correct answer is the rifle and then whatever group provides the best tank in front of that rifle. Give me the rats. 10,000 is just so many rats.

Is 10,000 rats really that many? There are almost 100 other animals so that's only 100 rats per animal. Feel like for most of those bigger animals that won't be that overwhelming. Hawks would be low-key tough to deal with
We can assume that these are 10,000 large pissed off hungry rabid aggressive rats right? Real nut and eye biters.
Because I think we are also assuming the worst of all the animals right? It’s 5 large silverback gorillas with a hulk smash temperament too right? All the animals are max agro.
So a large rat like this is probably 1-1.5 lbs. that’s 10,000+ lbs of rat. Comparative 4 lions is approx 1600 lbs, 3 grizzlies weigh 2000 lbs, etc. the closest group in weight is probably the crocodiles at nearly 1000 lbs each but I assume we aren’t having this fight underwater?
So ya, 10,000 is a lot of angry psycho agro rats.
How do you deal with the hawks? Rifle won't be effective and rats can't get to them
Dodge Dip Duck Dive and Dodge. Maybe eventually both parties realize that attacking the other is futile.
I could fend off 50 hawks with a large stick. I might not kill any but they wouldn’t be having fun either. It’s not they are big owls or eagles.
I’ll worry about the hawks after the gorillas and bears and lions and wolves are no longer on the field.
The hawks have an inherent advantage that no other party involved except the single rifle has any sort of anti-air capability.
I can't decide what to think on the rats. That's a lot of rats, but at the end of the day, they're still rats. They're likely to not actually do or fight anything and instead just piss around. Gorillas, lions, bears, they're going to happily get involved.

That was my first thought, but with 50 hawks coming down on him, getting an accurate shot off would be difficult. Anything attacking you would be distracted from the air as well as the ground.
I get the sense that they would be tough to deal with, but in defending you, I think the lions, bears and gorillas would likely wade through them and you'd be dead before the rats had much effect.
Are the gorillas super smart like they are in the most recent "Planet of the Apes" movies (great 'effin trilogy, btw)? If so, I think I would have to pick them.
Also the hawks; talons, wings, and sharp beaks. Raptors like that are hunting/killing machines. I like the idea of having a natural air force protecting me.

The rats would just swarm everything, and they’d be hard to kill that many. I’d probably take the rats and the wolfs. The wolfs would be quick to attack the other large animals.
I think if you could have 3 I'd go rats, hawks and hunter. Hawks pester the bears gorillas and lions while the hunter picks them off. Rats could probably overwhelm the rest. Like you said bears, lions, and gorillas would be tough for the rats and I feel like they could do pretty massive damage to them just swinging around their large limbs
It's going to take a high powered rifle to take down a brown bear, buffalo, lion or gorilla. And in the chaos he's not going to have a chance to set up for a high quality shot. You can keep all of them between the both of you. The rifle will also be totally ineffective vs the rats and the hawks because the are small, fast and numerous. A shotgun with bird shot would be better for them but even less effective against everything else including you.
I feel like the buffalo and gorillas give you the best chances. Buffalo are super durable, and they naturally circle around their young in defense. A coordinated stampede would take out a lot of the other animals. Lions don't mess with Cape Buffalo often because they know how dangerous they can be. Gorillas are also durable, immensely strong, and can be vicious. Plus they are the smartest of the bunch. With them on your side I feel like you can survive against the divided attacks of the rats. You'll be exhausted and bloody and chewed to hell, but alive.
