I am not sure but it would be cool if you found a you tube video showing such a contest. All we have is rattlesnakes, eleven species and the deadly but tiny coral snake.

My understanding is that Kingcobra will win and finally eat the mamba.
Kingcobra is known to prey on other venomous snakes like Cobras.It is immune to snake venom where as blackmamba is not.So King will come out victorius

Which would win if one were to put a bunch of wild, or even family Hogs, into the fray against all of the snakes you could put in place?

All I would see is a bunch of fatter hogs!

To most all Pigs, snakes are merely Appitizers/Appetizers !

Dear Deathless here are some photos of my "little piggies!"

Cute aren't they? At maybe 300 lbs, perhaps they might be able to take care of a big snake!

The king cobra is the largest of all poisonous terrestrial snakes. Just 1/5th of a fluid oz. of king cobra venom can kill an elephant, king cobra is shy by nature, although it will defend itself when it must. The king cobra exists in southeast Asia and feeds mostly upon other snakes, leading to its scientific name of Ophiophagus hannah--Ophiophagus is Latin for "snake-eater."

i am glad pakistan doesnt have these dangerous snakes or any other dangerous animals, but i know you indians have a lot of these, i dont know how you guys live. 80% of pakistan is a desert country, while 80% of india is forest or green country, that makes a huge difference in the types of animals there are in the two countries

Wow, I didn't even know they grew to that size. One that size can probably move really fast too. We went to see some tourist attractions last year and they had an exhibit on snakes. The King Cobra was definitely the most impressive or maybe it just seems that way since I'm such a big fan of Indiana Jones.

Black or green, mambas  are more dangerous to man, not to king cobra.Mamba can be more agile than king but not stronger.Once over powered, mamba is a meal.

King Cobra is a notorious snake hunter.

But the Black Mamba can reach 14 feet in length with more drop-for-drop lethal venom (at least to humans). Before it's antivenom was introduced the Black Mamba had a mortality rate of nearly 100% in humans. Usually  killing it's victim in 20 minutes or less.

Now, the question remains, are King Cobras immune to other snake venoms? If yes? Does it matter?

The King Cobra and Black Mamba do not share natural geography therefore they aren't natural enemies.

Otherwise, we are probably looking at a draw in which both snakes lose their lives. Because it don't matter if the King Cobra is the aggressor, the Black Mamba is still 99.9% (my guestimate) sure to get in it's own bite before it expires.
