Hitler, because human life always takes precedence over animal life in any circumstance (literally normal).

Seriously though, SWE (provided he's not trolling) is absolutely correct.

Unless we're talking about Hitler when he's in power and can still do damage (in which case the moral question is a completely different ones that has nothing to to with gorillas), then saving the human being is the only morally acceptable course of action.

Gorillas are an endangered species

Hitler killed 11 million people

And you save him? That isn't morally acceptable.

What's not morally acceptable is to care more for an "endangered species" than for a fellow human being.

Even when that human is literally Hitler?

So we should let Hitler live and not care about our planet. Got it.

Neither to be honest, considering what the gorrilla's reaction might be when trying to save it.

Yes. It's not like anything bad is going to happen by saving him.  The decision not to would be driven by hate. Even if it seems just, it never is.

What if Hitler had just walked out of a transgender bathroom, and the gorilla had refused to make a  wedding cake for a gay Nazi wedding?

Well, it depends whether Hitler was invited to a gay Nazi wedding, while Gorilla is a licences baker.

Which one is the fiscal conservative and which one is the social conservative? That will play a role.

Regardless, I'm pretty sure it would be happening in Florida. And I would save the gorilla.

Western Hitler is more fiscally conservative, while eastern Hitler is more socially conservative.
