King Cobra vs Anaconda vs Black Mamba: Who’ll win?

Shivani Tiwari

King Cobra: As the longest venomous snake in the world, it can reach lengths of up to 18 feet, though they typically range between 10 and 13 feet. 

Anaconda: It can reach lengths of up to 30 feet and can weigh more than 227 kilograms. 

Black Mamba: Renowned for being the fastest snake on land, capable of reaching speeds of up to 12 mph (19 km/h). 

King Cobra is extremely potent and can paralyze its prey, making it an effective weapon in a battle. 

The black mamba’s venom is also deadly, acting more quickly than the King Cobra’s venom and causing death by paralysis much faster. 

The anaconda, on the other hand, doesn’t rely on venom at all. Its attack is purely physical, constricting its prey to death.

The King Cobra is known to prey on other venomous snakes, including Black Mambas, and is immune to their venom. 

The Black Mamba's venom is potent, but the Anaconda's size and constriction ability would likely give it the upper hand. 

Ultimately, the Anaconda’s size, strength, and constriction abilities would likely provide it a major advantage in this battle.
