    No offense here but the mortal enemy are from South east asia and from Africa

    That's a hell of a ride for either one of them

    Interestingly enough you made the same mistake twice regarding king cobras

    But back to pred/prey ball pythons mortal enemies in africa are king cobras and the giant african rat (the latter also a food source)
    I am surprised you did not notice you made a mistake twice before someone pointed it out to you especially given that
