Black Mamba fight for a female mate: Why the snakes don't bite in the deadly battle for mating
In the wilds of Africa, witnessing two black mambas, among the world's deadliest snakes, locked in combat is both thrilling and eerie. These battles, often lasting over 30 minutes, are not about killing but about mating rights. Surprisingly, the snakes do not bite each other in these fights despite their lethal venom, which can kill a human in under 20 minutes. Instead, male black mambas wrestle in a non-lethal show of strength. They rise, twist, and press against each other, trying to push the rival's head down in a ritual known as 'plaiting combat.' The loser backs off while the winner earns the chance to mate with a nearby female. This restrained, physical contest has fascinated scientists for years and reveals a complex, strategic side of these feared reptiles. Black Mamba's combat ritual: A test of strength, not venom Male black mambas engage in what is called "plaiting combat." This is a non-lethal form of wrestling where the snakes twist, wrap, and tangle around each other in a bid to establish dominance. The snakes rise off the ground, pressing against each other in a vertical battle, trying to force their rival's head downward in a show of strength. The goal of the contest is to physically dominate the opponent rather than injure or kill. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Memperdagangkan CFD Emas dengan salah satu spread terendah? IC Markets Mendaftar Undo Rather than using their venomous bite, which could end the fight swiftly but with potentially fatal consequences, the snakes follow a ritualised form of combat. The first to submit or retreat loses, and the winner gains access to the nearby female. This physical trial, based on stamina and control, allows both rivals to walk away alive, even if only one walks away victorious. What is at stake for Black Mambas in the battle of strength For male black mambas, these ritualistic wrestling matches are about more than just physical dominance. They are in a fight for the right to mate. With a receptive female nearby, only the strongest and most persistent male earns the opportunity to reproduce. The stakes are high, but so is the risk of fatal injury if venom were used. That is why these snakes engage in controlled combat, where endurance, technique and sheer strength decide the victor. The loser typically retreats without injury, preserving his life for future chances. For the winner, the reward is not just mating rights but also the passing of one of his genes, which in nature is the ultimate success. Venom is too valuable to waste Venom is not something snakes produce endlessly or effortlessly. For the black mamba, venom is a carefully conserved and biologically expensive resource. It is primarily reserved for capturing prey and for self-defence in life-threatening situations. Using venom in a mating battle would be wasteful and risky, particularly when there is no prey to consume and the goal is to impress a potential mate, not to kill a rival. This strategic conservation of venom demonstrates how evolution has shaped their behaviour. By relying on physical strength and avoiding venom use in these contests, black mambas reduce the risk of death and conserve their venom for when it is truly needed. This increases their chances of surviving future threats and securing food. Immunity within the species Another fascinating factor is that black mambas have developed a mild resistance to their own species' venom. Scientists have observed that snakes, particularly those that live in close proximity to others of their kind, often have partial immunity to each other's toxins. This is thought to be a result of evolved antibodies that can neutralise venom components to some degree. However, this immunity is not foolproof. A high enough dose of venom could still cause severe harm or death. This partial resistance likely reduces the danger of accidental bites during social interactions such as mating or feeding, but it does not offer complete protection. That is one more reason why the snakes avoid biting during combat—the risk still outweighs the reward. A bruised ego, not a broken body In contrast to many other species where mating fights can lead to serious injuries or death, black mamba confrontations tend to end with little physical damage. The loser may retreat exhausted and humbled, but he typically escapes without wounds. The winner earns the right to court the female, while the loser retains the chance to fight another day. This approach not only preserves the species' population by reducing needless fatalities but also ensures a sustainable form of sexual competition. The avoidance of fatal conflict suggests a remarkable evolutionary strategy where survival and reproduction are balanced with minimal risk.

For the children: Russian gains spark exodus from east Ukraine
Natalia Golovanyk would probably have stayed in her village in east Ukraine , even with Russian forces closing in, but authorities issued an order for children to be taken to safety. That meant the 30-year-old had little choice but to urgently pack up her home and seven children -- all under the age of 13 -- and leave their lives behind. "It's already noisy there and very scary for the children. If we didn't have children, we would have stayed," she told AFP at a centre for evacuees in the Dnipropetrovsk region.

Our car is there. Everything is left there. I am very sad. We worked so hard for 10 years, and now everything is gone," she added. Russian tanks and infantry swooped over the Ukrainian border more than three years ago. Moscow failed to capture the Ukrainian capital Kyiv in its full-scale invasion and was then pushed back in a rout that embarrased the Kremlin. Live Events But Russian forces have been clawing forward across the sprawling front line in eastern Ukraine since late 2022, advancing even as the United States pushes for Moscow and Kyiv to end the war. The fighting is now nearing Golovanyk's home of town of Slovianka, as Russian forces threaten to gain a foothold for the first time in the industrial Dnipropetrovsk region. Golovanyk hopes to move with her family to western Ukraine, find housing, work, and enrol her children in school. 'Why risk their lives?' "Every evacuation is improvised. Every person requires a different approach," said Oleksiy Prima, the regional coordinator of the Proliska humanitarian organisation coordinating the evacuations. "The most important and painful systemic problem that we face every day is still the security situation. These are drones that strike civilians and evacuation mission vehicles," the 29-year-old told AFP. The orders to flee Dnipropetrovsk -- issued over the last several months -- follow a painful precedent: Ukrainian authorities say that more than 634 children have been killed and 1987 wounded since Russia invaded. Like most tolls of verified civilian casualties from the war, those numbers are likely to be an underestimate. Nadiia Gavrylova was among those leaving with her four young children from the town of Mezhova near the eastern border of the Dnipropetrovsk region that Russian forces are advancing towards. "We really don't want to leave, but we have to. We have to do it for the children," the 33-year-old told AFP outside her home scarred by fighting. Staying was not an option, she said, and not only because of the mandatory orders from authorities to evacuate. "We've all seen it on television, and those who haven't seen it on television have seen it with their own eyes, how houses are destroyed," she said. "And if there are children there, why hide them and risk their lives in the first place?"

Video: Bird Rips Israeli Flag Off Pole. Internet Calls It "Sign From God"
New Delhi: A video of a raven pulling out an Israeli flag from what looks like a pipe atop a terrace has gone viral on social media, with people seeing it as a "sign of God" for things to come. The short clip was shared on social media platform X with the caption: "Even the birds have had enough." In the clip, the bird flies to the pole, sits on it and starts pulling out the flag with its beak. At one point, it struggles, takes a mild flight and clutches the flag before dropping it to the floor. NDTV could not independently authenticate the video. "Even the birds have had enough" — Peacemaker (@peacemaket71) June 19, 2025 The short clip was shared widely on X and sparked emotional responses amid what's been an immensely tense time in West Asia. Israeli journalist Nir Hasson jumped in to share her thoughts on the video, saying: 'God is undoubtedly hinting something to us, just not sure exactly what.' אלוהים בלי ספק רומז לנו משהו רק לא בטוח בדיוק מה. — نير حسون Nir Hasson ניר חסון (@nirhasson) April 29, 2023 Another user tweeted: "Even the bird does not recognize what you call Israel. A crow pulls the flag from the mast and throws it to the ground." Even the bird does not recognize what you call Israel ????

Iran retaliated with missile strikes in parts of Tel Aviv and Jerusalem in what was a marked escalation between two arch-foes in decades. An Iranian missile hit the southern Israeli city of Beersheba on Thursday, according to Al Jazeera. Local officials said it was a 'direct hit.' Huge plumes of smoke were seen rising from the site. Fires broke out, and emergency services reported at least five people were injured. This was also confirmed by Israel's Channel 12. The Israeli military said it intercepted three Iranian drones over the Dead Sea Thursday night. On whether or not America would get directly involved in the war, the White House said on Thursday that US President Donald Trump would take a call in the next two weeks. Trump also said that negotiations and talks weren't off-table. Meanwhile, Russia has warned Israel against striking Iran's Bushehr nuclear power plant. Maria Zakharova, the spokesperson for the Russian foreign ministry, said the Kremlin was "particularly concerned about the safety of the Bushehr nuclear power plant, which employs Russian specialists." Iran's foreign minister, Abbas Araghchi, will meet European representatives from three countries for talks in Geneva, Switzerland, on Friday, according to state-run news agency IRNA. The meeting will allow "continued engagement with our greatest ally", CNN reported.
