Here's why these 10 animals hate each other

Not everything about nature is all good vibes, love and peace.

Let’s look at the animal kingdom and you will realize it can get pretty wild out here. Just like humans, animals have their own unique personalities. When you pair two different species together it can be harmonious - or the clash of the titans.

Yup! I’m not talking about your typical dog and cat fight. I’m talking about some of the craziest showdowns caught on camera.

So here’s why these 10 animals hate each other.

10. Elephants and Rhinos


The world’s heftiest land animals live side by side but when aggression strikes, the results are often fatal.

Weighing 8 tonnes and standing 13 feet tall, male elephants make mean sparring partners as they fight for dominance or to defend their young.

Battles are fought with tusks and trunks. Packed with over 100000 muscles, their trunks - both a tool and weapon, can bring down a grown lion with a single blow. While its tusks, 7 feet tall, used to dig up water holes and strip trees off bark, can deliver a deadly goring.

However, their great intelligence sets the great giant apart from its rival the rhino. But do brains and brawn prove a winning combination?

Of the several rhino species, the white male rhino is deemed to be the most dangerous.

Weighing 2.5 tonnes, standing 6 feet tall, he will fight for mates, territory or just for the sake of it. Crazy right?

In the rhino world, the size of the horn is a status symbol. The bigger the horn, the easier it is to find mates. He sharpens his horns against rocks and trees. With a solid base and sharp edges, the horn can be lethal.

Agile and angry, the rhino can counter the size and strength of an elephant. So don't underestimate the herbivores. They can be quite aggressive even when there’s no evidence of conflict.

9. Ants and Termites



This has to be one of the most unfair wars in the insects kingdom.

On the surface, you would probably think that termites would be the easy victors. After all, termites are substantially larger than ants – usually by 2-3x, if not even bigger. Termites also often have heads that would appear built for combat.
But that’s not necessarily the case in the termites vs ants war.

When ants go up against termites, it’s usually not even close to a fair fight. Termites get annihilated. Despite their average size and weight, ants are much more aggressive and almost always have numerical superiority as well.

They’ll invade the termite nest, make short work of the termite warriors, then kill the termite queen and drag her from the nest. This virtually always ensures the death of a termite colony.

In fact, some species of ants have been known to specifically prey upon termites for food. Do termites ever win against ants?

Not usually...

8. Sperm whales and giant squids



Oceans are all about mysteries and so is the case of sperm whales and giant squids. Due to their vast habitat, there’s not much explored about them.

The largest squid ever recorded by scientists was almost 43 feet long and weighed just about one tonne. Squids live deep underwater and therefore pretty elusive and rarely seen.

On the other hand, the sperm whale is very distinct and unique compared to other whales. It is the largest of the toothed whales and is identified as so because of the presence of a huge bulbous organ containing a liquid wax called spermaceti.

Giant squids are a rare sighting until recently when one swam past an oil tanker’s underwater camera. It was determined a giant squid in the photo as compared to the sperm whale, an average squid would have been eaten easier and its mass wouldn’t have been so large in its mouth. The giant squid is actually enormous. It's just dwarfed by the size of the sperm whale.

Evidence of suction marks on a sperm whale's skin is evidence of these fights ensuing in the deepest depths of the ocean.

The number of colossal squid beaks found in the stomach of sperm whales indicates that the latter often wins.

So in my opinion the giant squid is only a meal for the sperm whale!
Tell me, what do you think?

7. Cobras and Mongooses



It takes thick skin and agility to fight and kill venomous snakes like the Cobra.

Spectacled cobras can grow to more than 7 feet in length. Their venom attacks the nerves and can kill a human in as little as 30 minutes.

Cobras are pretty shy and uninterested in tangling with anybody but when threatened they can be pretty aggressive.
