The King cobra (Ophiophagus hannah) is the longest venomous snake in the world and the Black mamba (Dendroaspis polylepis) is the second longest venomous snake in the world. The King cobra has huge venom yields and the Black mamba is one of the fastest and most venomous snakes on our planet. The King cobra lives in Asia and it is famous for eating other snakes and the Black mamba is the most feared snake of Africa, maybe the whole world. Which one of these two snakes is deadlier? In this video we use 5 categories to find out who would win a hypothetical battle between these deadly snakes! We compare the behavior, size, speed, venom and also how difficult it is to handle these snakes.
Remember that snakes are never aggressive, only defensive if they feel threatened! Calm handler = calm snake.
if u put a black mamba and king cobra in a cage,after a minute black mamba will dis appear and can find out in king cobras stomach
Well, who knows if the King cobra is immune to Black mamba’s venom. Probably not.
@@LivingZoology its already proven and tested, the fact is u also i think dont know much about king cobra,
@@suju7503 Where was it proven and tested? We are waiting for the scientific paper or any other proof from you! Thanks!
@@LivingZoology even if u search in google or youtube u will get too much references, and its shame that u people didnt know the full fact of snakes,
King cobra is a ruthless snake eater,
For a king cobra and black mamba never come across each other, because both lives on differen locations
@@LivingZoology if a bkack mamba if its meets a king cobra, the king will always approach its a a snack meal, even black mamba dights, it will fail miserably and can get rip in king cobras stomach
I love this format. I’d love to see more comparisons of two snakes and see who “wins” based on the categories won.
Great, thanks! You should watch the other episodes! m.th-cam.com/play/PLj80DUXdImxYFSxBgoOhqNn_OoovzxMw_.html
Another fantastic video. Photography is beautiful along with a natural soundtrack. Well worth the wait. Thank you!
Many thanks! We are happy that we delivered a high quality content 🙂
So true. Beautiful video.
I don't much about snakes but austin stevens video face to face with a lance head .. ouch !! i wouldn't want to get bitten by any of them period!!
These attacks are so intense and dramatic! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Brilliant. Visually stunning. Very informative. Thank you.
I thought I said that ;-)
Thank you so much!!! Great that you love the quality of our footage and information provided.
Here in Brazil we'd say: "A King Cobra comeria a Mamba como macarrão". "The King Cobra would eat a Mamba as a pasta ". There's no way guys, no serpent is equivalent to King Cobra
The King cobra is probably not inmune to Black mamba’s venom (as they live on other continents) and it is also slower. Yes, the King is larger and stronger than the Black mamba and if it catches the mamba, it would probably win.
But in terms of deadly to humans, the mamba wins ... super fast and very aggressive... striking multiple times and even multiple targets...
The King Cobra is the most powerful snake in terms of head to head against any cobra. Even Phyton a lot of times gets eaten by King Cobra. Regarding deadly against humans Mamba makes more damage
Not true
Yes. King Cobra, the most dangerous snake in the world 🙏🏼
What an absolute specimen of a snake that King Cobra . Too beautiful ❤
Thanks for watching!
Great vid! You guys did a good job of breaking down the difference between the two species for anyone who was unfamiliar with these snakes.
@@maxteasdale6658 Thank you! Glad that you like this video!
The king cobra in the dried up riverbed looks stunning with its stripes/bands across the whole body.
It was a spectacular King cobra 🙂
Your video format is very complete. I really like it. Thank you.
Great that you like it! Don’t miss other episodes 🙂
Every frame is an idyllic portrait in pose, lighting, and setting. Exquisite :)
Thank you so much, we appreciate your comment!
That is not the reason. The snake is an Ophiophagus, it eats other venomous snakes and cobras.
If an adult king cobra injects at least 300mg of venom, and 20mg is a potentially lethal dose, then the king cobra typically injects at least 15x a lethal dose of venom. If a black mamba injects 120mg and a lethal dose on the low end is 10mg, then a black mamba injects 12x the lethal dose of venom. And this is using your low estimates of the king cobra and upper estimates of black mamba venom. So even though mamba venom is clearly more toxic, wouldn't a king cobra bite, then, be more lethal due to sheer venom amount? Someone let me know what I'm missing.
Black Mamba has 6times larger LD 50 value. Its poison is much more aggressive.
Taipan has a 70times larger value than the King Cobra.
The King has huge volume, the mamba has very high toxicity. In the end, both will kill you without antivenom.
Anything after 1 times the lethal dose is a bad time. When you start to get into the 10x or 15x i dont think it matters to much because you will be dead if you dont have the anti venom handy. In a fight i think whoever gets a good bite off first will win. Most likely they would kill each other in a fight.

Two potent snakes that require respect and distance.
Yes, for sure!
Excellent video sir.... Need more and more videos like it. From India, Kolkata ❤️❤️
@@rakeshroy9532 Thank you very much! Greetings to India!
何時も本当に良い動画をありがとうございます✨
Thank your video
@@kirmajial-muchichsan7107 Hopefully you enjoyed it!
The Mamba is certainly deadlier, simply through it's disposition, which is nervous. The King seems to have the intelligence to avoid humans to a much greater extent.
Both these snakes are secretive and shy. The Black mamba is more defensive when cornered though.
@@LivingZoology Absolutely. I think people think the Mamba is aggressive because of its speed.
Thanks living biology for sharing this idealisms movement about zoology
Our pleasure!
Is the king cobra immuned to such potent venom?
Edit: They aren't. They have resistances to prey snake they naturally encounter, not even total immunity. A black mamba's venom would probably damage the cobra greatly.
That’s what we think is very probable.
your videos is great, i mean you provide useful informations, hands-on experience of yours
So nice of you! Great that you love our content!
Yes, There's a real fight between King Cobra and Mamba. But the battle ended with a fat stomach king cobra.
Watch the video to see these two snakes compared using different categories.
Thanks!
Thank you very much!
Thanks 👍👍👍
The Beatles of two posiunous Snack is exited
👍👍
A King cobra In general loves other snakes.. however i think a mongoose,secretarybird or honeybadger know both of thems snakes is a feast.
👍👍
Mongoose won't even touch King cobra
There's a reason why the King Cobra is the "King of the snakes." Nevertheless, Black Mamba is a solid 2nd.
The size of the King cobra is majestic for sure!
Frequently in snakes the term king is associate with ophiophagy (snake eater) see king snake from america, Lampropeltis gettula for example.
Inland taipan venomous of all serpents
Venomous of all in Australia,not world@@evansngach8809
Nice post dear ❤. I viewed in other vlogs that the king cobra has anti-venom defence system and is a snake Eater. Am I wrong? Please let me know. With love 💓
The difference between a Mamba and a King Cobra is the when a Mamba bites you you phone your wife and kids and tell them good bye --- you've got 45min , so hopefully you have reception.
The KC is deadly - no arguments but with the right anti venom your chances are almost 100% of surviving. With the mamba your chances are about 50/50 with anti venom
You can survive longer than that with the Black mamba bite, several hours. It is important to get breathing support. You have a good chance of surviving with antivenom. Some places with many Black mambas have antivenom available (Durban, coast of Kenya). With the King cobra bite you will most likely die because the amount of venom is huge so you can die quickly from the overdose. Also, in most Asian countries there is no antivenom so you can call your family in this case.
Hi, both snakes are so beautiful, personally I'm scared of any kind of reptiles and sure I will break me if some day found face to face against one mamba or King cobra hahaha. Very nice video!!!
Thank you! It is the best to start to observe snakes from distance and slowly coming closer 🙂
Great video. I think it was a foregone conclusion which snake would win!
Thank you for watching! Great that you enjoyed it!
My mom and dad watched this video with me a few nights ago. They r now subscribed to ur channel! 🤗
That is awesome, thank you!!! Send greetings to your parents please!
These 2 reptiles are rough & harsh that's why they're ranked the deadliest.
The black mamba is quite nervous sometimes
Two legends ☹️☹️
If I was a mamba, I would flee from the king Cobra and hope to survive. I am amazed at how calmly you both handle these dangerous snakes; I am scared to approach the 1 meter black racer I see in my back yard.
The Black mamba would probably have a good chance of escaping the King cobra. We are calm so snakes we handle are calm too 🙂 Thanks for watching!
Very educational video. Thanks🇿🇦🇿🇦
Glad you enjoyed it!
Have you ever considered making a video on sea snakes? I feel like there's very little coverage about them, which is a bit sad.
Wonderful video.
Thank you very much!
There arent many species, if any at all, that would win a "Most dangerous?" competition vs a Black Mamba. Its nervous and unpredictable behavior alone would put it at the top, even with less potent venom.
We agree that the Black mamba is probably at the very top when it comes to danger while handling.
I knew it, that black mamba would win this.💚💚 amazing video
Thank you!
That banded King cobra is beautiful!
We agree, it was a stunning snake!
Awesome comparison
Black mamba is much more quick and aggressive
Thank you for watching! The Black mamba is definitely more defensive.
New subscriber
Thanks for subbing!
Very amazing.
Many thanks!
Both these snakes have massive capabilities and can kill an adult human in 20 minutes. Yes the mamba wins more categories but on a one on one battle the king would have it for lunch as it appears immune to it's venom and there have been several reports of this by various herpetologists
Who reported that the King is immune to the. Black mamba’s venom and where? We expect you to send us proper evidence (studies, not stories).
@@LivingZoology I am surprised who would send a comment like this especially as you are in the industry. Do you not talk to other zoologists because several have seen such an event occur before their very eyes and have shared the information on you tube. I will correct myself about the KC being totally immune but it certainly is more tolerable to BM venom than the other way around. There are people who have witnessed this so before you come back with trigger fast replies I suggest you look into the matter yourselves because the evidence is out there
@@gre812u Yeah, you see - you are correcting yourself. The King cobra is not fully immune to snake venoms, that we know. We cannot monitor all studies and research around the globe all the time, we could miss something. So asking again, where it was tested and proven that the King cobra is immune to Black mamba’s venom???
@@LivingZoology This argument is not about a KC being immune to BM venom or even more tolerant to its venom than the other way around etc as you have pointed out. This is about the KC (specialist snake eater) devouring a BM and the information submitted by other zoologists support this claim because it has actually happened on several occasions and they have shared this information on you tube. If you get the time go see for yourselves. Just simply enter it into the search bar and you will get your answer
The black mamba fast stricking speed wech at like lighting speed
Black MAMBA speed attack 50 Times faster than our recoil reflex
What???
@@LivingZoology yes the attack speed of the BLACK MAMBA IS 50 Times faster than our recoil reflex.
This equals 1004,40 KL/H.
It's normal that you didn't know a Snake Specialist Said this on nat Geo wild on march 10, 2021.
@@ALEXNOMBRES Can you send us any link or study about this?
@@LivingZoologyI hope this isn't asking too much; but I'd love to see a "3 largest snakes in the world" informative video: Burmese Python vs Reticulated Python vs Anaconda Boa! I know I wouldn't be the only one stoked. 🤞😁
@@LivingZoology yes I Can send you an extract of what the specialist Said he speaks in french.
It's good ?
Ain't this people having death wishes

Hi. Dingo Dinkleman just lost his Mangshang Viper ( her name was Marshmallow ). I feel for him. Was wondering if you guys could do a piece on Mangshang Vipers. Thanks.
Hello! It is always sad when a beloved animal dies 😥 We hope that one day we will have time and some funds to do a trip to China.
It's not even close! The King Cobra wins almost every time!
The Black mamba is faster and the King is probably not immune to its venom.
Kind Cobras eat Black Mambas for breakfast literally
If they could catch them and would manage to avoid being bitten.
@@LivingZoology mamba venom won't work on a king cobra
@@vkjfv And this statement is based on what, exactly? I could expect the King cobra being immune or resistant to venoms of phylogenetically relative snakes in its area but that's not the case of mambas.
No, they do not because they live in different regions of world.
@@Michal.B007 ? i know that but they live closely together in captivity and accidents do happen and king cobra always wins brute force alone never mind venom. When it comes to venom the mamba cant take the dosage a king delivers no animal can , if possible to meet a king cobra can bring down a blue whale easily, in Asia they bring down elephants all the time if cornered
I wonder who was the first person to learn the trick of handling snakes😂
No idea! 😀
This video is just a comparison. Cause KC and black mamba are separated by two continental. They naturally never met each other. I live in Indonesia and have a few of kc and black mamba are in africa.
Dish channel is amazing and I've Loved snakes by whole life! How true is the church that covers come out and eat the eggs?
Thank you for watching! Sorry, but we don’t understand your question 🤔
Where is battle fight??😂
King is king,they grow till 20 feet which is very huge.
And imagine they will be able to stand more than 5 feet.
The record length of a King is about 5.5 meters (about 18 ft).
Black mamba for the win!!
Yes, the Black mamba is the winner!
how you track these snakes by any equipments or something
We simply walk in nature, road cruise or cooperate with local snake rescuers.
There are king cobra 🐍 in some parts in Africa specially in Egypt and Sudan
The King cobra only lives in Asia.
If one lives in Asia and the other Africa, why do the birds all sound the same?
About the first half of the soundscape is from India, then you can hear sounds from Africa.
MAMBA NOIR 🥇
KING COBRA 🥈
It's the other way around buddy. 😂
As a human being, I would fear the Mamba more than Cobras because Mambas are way more defensive than Cobras but when it comes to King vs Mamba. The King wins.
Thanks for watching!
Mongoose can kill black mamba whereas mongoose avoid king cobra due to kings size and strength 😅
@@kscreations5937 A very large Black mamba is also out of reach for the mongoose 🙂
Well, I guess the Black Mamba is the king of snakes now.
We think that it is the most difficult venomous snake to handle and probably the most dangerous if you corner it.
This 2 ladies what are they fighting for ?😢😅
It is a hypothetical battle 😜
I believe a King Cobra would take a Mamba as breakfast .
If it can catch it and survive being bitten by a mamba.
@@LivingZoology Agree
The mamba is definitely meaner, but the king would definitely eat the mamba. The only question is, would the king survive the counter strike, or has he not evolved enough resistance?
Yes, the questionable thing is the venom resistance and the ability to chase the mamba (which is faster).
If the king doesn't have enough venom resistance then he would be in serious trouble!!! The Mamba is much faster and aggressive and would bite the king a few times before he even knew what hit him, and slowly but surely it's game over!!!!!
Mamba venom is super lethal!!!!
Where is the battle between two ? Just comparison !!!
It is a hypothetical battle.
excellent
Many many thanks!
If they meet mamba will be a delicious food for King cobra for sure 😂
If the King can catch the mamba. Also, the King is not fully inmune to other snake’s venom.
I wonder if it's more dangerous to be stung by two snakes or one coastal taipan. Is the venom of these two snakes combined equal to the venom of the taipan? By the way, I'm a taipan fan.
I believe it's a foregone conclusion that the venom of any species of taipan is, drop for drop, more potent than that of the black mamba. On Wiki's list of dangerous snakes, the only two that make its 'extremely dangerous' short list are the black mamba and the coastal taipan. I know that when it comes to dry bites, they are all but unheard of where these two species are concerned.
Both are known to deliver multiple strikes in a single attack. Obviously, neither one is a snake to fool around with. If I had to have an encounter with one of them, I'd probably take my chances with the taipan because the speed and agility of the black mamba is simply unmatched.
You should watch our comparisons with taipans! 🙂m.th-cam.com/video/5nsfqrlr3pk/w-d-xo.html&pp=ygUPTWFtYmEgdnMgdGFpcGFu
king cobra is not actually a true cobra ,it is more closely related ro mamba than other cobras
We have a full video about that: th-cam.com/video/nDicziC6Uag/w-d-xo.html
Cobra Rei e linda e a minha favorita
Even though they are from different regions. If they came in contact. Who would kill the other 🤔
The King would probably win if it would catch the mamba and survive the bite of the mamba.
@LivingZoology This brought up a lot of speculation 💯. This fight I would want to 👀. To have it recorded in the books.
black mamba is very fast to attack so black mamba is very dangerous is bites you you will die within fewe minutes you can't get recovered
Every bite is different, in most cases you have up to several hours after a bite from a mamba.
Ulah cet kepanasan mele geloyo ndek gemes
What if the Black mamba hits first? Do you know if the king can withstand it's venomous bit?
There is not study about that. The King is probably not immune to Black mamba’s venom.
@@LivingZoology Thank you
Esa es una cobra, más no es la cobra real!!!
No figth why??? 😢😢
Uhm... I can understand black mamba has deadlier venom and faster movement... But theoretically, if their habitat overlapped, would black mamba ended up as king cobra's meal?
Yes. King Cobra will eat it as regular prey.
Maybe yes, but the Black mamba is faster and has a very potent venom, to which the King cobra might not be resistant.
У мамбы морда злее!
Itu mahluk juga sebagai obah segerah tali begetak
Honey badger eat both of these snakes as breakfast

Black mamba is extremely agile and quick , so king cobra can't catch , but mamba can bite and escape quickly , 2 plus point to mamba.
Check the video and see how we compare these two snakes.
King cobra for the win
Right
Thanks for watching!
Mambas eat cobras Tastes like chicken 🐔 LOL 😅
???
in reality its rather irrelevant statistics wise. each has potent enough venom and enough of it to kill each other assuming no immunity to venom from a species they've evolved separately from. essentially unless the comparison is between something like a mangrove snake and a mamba or something this is probably going the always be the result for geographically distanced snakes. its getting to the point that the only categories that will actually matter is how each snake sees the other and intelligence, like whats this weird looking snake is going to be a different response to hmm i wonder if i can eat this. King cobra and some of the kraits might be interesting if there was a caveat that the individuals were similar size
Many people are interested in comparisons like this and they want to learn more. We provide the info and great snake content.
مضيعه للوكت لاكثر😂

But king cobra can eat black mamba
Yet, it can.
Fuck I don’t like snakes!
Why? Do you have any negative experiences with them?
