The diet consists of small mammals and birds, the larger the python the larger the prey which include pigs, dogs, cats and primates, etc., the python ambushes it's prey and suffocates the victim rather then crushing it, after swallowing the prey whole digestion takes many days to several weeks depending on the size of the prey.

Which would win King cobra vs reticulated python vs king snake vs indigo snake?

My opinion is King Cobra will win... Python on average can grow upto 20ft. King cobra on average 15 ft. But before strangling king cobra, python has to survive from the king's bite...It's not easier. Unlike other snakes, King cobra natural habitat is to eat other snakes. So It has a advantage... For proof, see the video in the related link


King cobra vs black mamba vs reticulated python vs anaconda?

It depends on how large both animals are. Reticulated pythons rarely get over 7m, and a tiger could easily kill one of those. But if a python did get over 10m it would be quite a fight. But the Tiger would come out the victor While the tiger may win more often than not, there have been many occasions where the tiger has been killed and ended up in the retic's belly. Retics are much more defensive than other constrictors in the wild. A 7m retic could EASILY kill a tiger. They can generate 100 PSI of constrictive force. It all depends if the retic gets a good bite on the tiger so it can start throwing coils. The tiger's agility is what gives it the upper hand, as they can dodge the strikes and wear down the snake. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Anvp2vfdwPs 6:21 Tiger loses, thanks for playing!

Who would win in a fight a cougar or a king cobra?

It is a true clash of the titans. The Python as with anaconda is one of the largest snakes in the world. while king cobra is not larger than python. But it has venom.If they 2 fight then if there is a 25 foot python and a 16 foot king cobra it is very tough for king cobra to win because pythons are longer than cobra but king cobra has venom while the python is a non-venomous snake. But the python has size.Python uses its size as a weapon while killing a larger prey.But king cobra is smaller.So the one who attacks on the opponent first will be the winner . If the python attacks first on the king cobra and get a good grip on the neck and tail of the king cobra then the king cobra will be dead within 15 minutes. At the other end if the king cobra attacks python it will be a chance for king cobra. But the size of the python will many time to kill the python with venom.In that time the python had already killed the king cobra

Adult pythons are much bigger than adult cobras. Edit: It depends completely upon species. Some species of pythons such as the Australian Antaresia spp. (spotteds, stimsons, childrens and pygmy pythons) average around 1-1.5m!
