This has been a matter of meaningless debate between my group of friends and I for like 2 years, and I just now decided I'd get NT's take on thesituation.

SAY you're placed in a 10x10 foot room with nothing in it. It's square, in case that matters. All you have is the clothes on your back. For shoes,you're wearing dunks, for our purposes. You must fight one of the following animals to the death. As in, youaren't allowed to leave unless you kill it, or it kills you I guess. Do you choose a jaguar, an anaconda, or a crocodile?

Also assume that each animal is average for it's kind. You aren't allowed to choose whichever one happens to be the biggest fail at predation.



Also for whichever one you choose, what would be your strategy?

Edit: Oops, I meant 10x10.
 
anaconda probably. A crocodile or a jaguar would be too fast, a ananconda would be moving all slow so I could just run around the room and jump on its headwhenever i get a chance.
 
I guess the crocodile since it's probably the slowest and most predictable moving of all of those given we're not in water. I can't kill it but Ican walk around the outter perimeter of the room away from it I guess. Jaguar will just be sleep in the corner then spring on your neck in a matter ofmilliseconds.

I cant think of a realistic plan to kill either. Maybe take each of the dunks of and tease the snake with it and let it eat them, because they are noticablysluggish after digesting a big meal.

When the snake is trying to eat the dunks,

i would stomp on the snakes head.

Anacondas have teeth fam. And dude changed it from 20x20 room to 10x10, that changes everything. I think I'll take the jaguar now. You're bigger thanit so it'll initially be scared of you if you jump around and makle yourself big. You'll have it cornered. It's now an all or nothing for you, diveon it go for the choke, the eye guage, grab it's balls, whatever you're going to do. I still need to know how big an average anaconda is too, I figurean average croc is maybe 8ft. Maybe you can stand between it's front and hind legs best you can and assume it can't swing its mouth or tall to thatexact point very fast and let itself tire out trying, again feed him the shoe, but what's the kill move? Poking his eyes out doesn't kill them. You canalso sit on its mouth shut, the muscles to bite down are like near the strongest bite pressure in nature, but the agonist muscles to open it are so weak youcan literally hold their mouth shut with your hand.

Oh, and you can take your shirt and pants off and even use that to tie its mouth shut, or cover the crocs eyes too since I noticed after watching Irwin captureso many of them that when they can't see, they calm the *!$% down real fast.
 
Definitely Anaconda.

I would take off one of my dunks, undo the laces real quick and tie it off so as to create a makeshift bolas type of weapon. I would swing it around whileintermittedly attempting to strike the snake on its head with the shoe. Hopefully I could bait the anaconda into striking at the shoe instead of at me.Although an anaconda may have the ability for multi strikes in succession, I have to imagine that there is some lag effect in between strikes, leaving it mostvulnerable. I used to own a couple of ball pythons as pets and been bit several times before, but they always just bit once. Even when I was feeding them livemice, if they missed on their strike, it would usually take them a few seconds to get reset before they attempted to strike again.

After a failed strike attempt at my shoe, I would try to pounce on the snake and control its head with both hands clamping its mouth shut. I would then get myMike Tyson on and try to bite out the snakes eyes and/or the snout of the snake since thats where they have their hearing/smelling sensors that they use tohunt. After that I'll just chill in the corner and wait for the blind sucker to die and then walk out the room as a conquering champion.

Average anaconda is 25 feet, and I'm a girl, and I forgot that we had the room as 10x10 because it makes it a harder choice because then the anaconda'snot as obvious, and just FYI for everyone:


  • The jag's chosen method of killing humans is biting through the soft spot in the back of your skull...into your brain.
  • Anacondas can see, they can also 'see' temperature, and 'taste' smell
  • Anacondas are not venomous. They do have 100 teeth though.

<Dorothy Ann> According to my research, </Dorothy Ann> and many Youtube videos, Anacondas bite once, and latch the eff on there andfrom what it looks like, you cant get it to let go without help.
 
as long as there is no water in the room for it to hide I'll take my chances with the Croc. I might be able to subdue it....but I have no idea how I'dkill it.

I guess I would have to try my hardest to stay as close to the head as possible. I am basing all of this off my limited experience as an amateur snake keeper(with a completely different breed of snake no less), but I think that snakes have a harder time twisting their body in tight corners when you are right uparound its head.
 
Jaguar. Distract it with the shoes than bam get it from behind and rear naked choke/break neck. Seems like the only 1 of the 3 that you would be able tochoke/break its neck.
 
I'll go with the croc. Threaten it a little until it opens its mouth, throw one of my shoes in the mouth...it would buy me about 7 seconds, have the shoelaces tied together already and jump on his back (pause) and proceed to tie his jaw shut. If that fails I have one more shoe to use. If both shoes failI'm assuming I'm not naked so I'll keep throwing different articles of clothing. If everything else fails I shall proceed to become savage andgouge its eyes out, bite its underbelly, and save the tail as my trophy when I am finished and ask my mother to make croc tail soup when I get home.
 
pretty sure they would all kill your average human being.

i would probably go for the croc though because with no water they would be out of their element.
