Snakes do not care for you. They will try to get away from you.
So as long as you don’t sit on one, you’re bueno.
Gorillas are so alike us and have social behaviour that it would find you in the mall (as it would definitely smell you at some point) and there’s really nothing you could do to appease it enough.
Looking a silverback in the eyes can be a death sentence, which you won’t be able to run away from.
You can get away from snakes with a brisk walk, and they would never challenge you unless cornered.
Also, you can fight a snake with a stick, whereas even if this mall was American and you had a handgun, you’d have a tough time taking down the gorilla before it ripped you to shreds.
There’s no scenario in which it’d be smarter to pick the gorilla. Not even one where it’s from a zoo.

Black mambas move at like 15mph (much faster than you or I) and are absolutely capable of killing a fully grown human if they feel threatened. Fighting them off with a stick is a great way to get a one way ticket to ground town lol.
My point was that the risk of accidentally meandering into one’s nest is enormous. I guess the answer is just stay in large open areas, but I was thinking more like a post apocalyptic “look for food and survive” kinda angle.
But yeah, I 100% agree that the Silverback is the more dangerous option here by a huge margin. I just think given a situation where you could avoid it long enough to find a hiding place it can’t get into (like a restaurants freezer). I’d rather the hulking gorilla that I can hide from over the deadly snake that might have made it’s home in my rudimentary shelter.
Black Mambas are extremely shy and will do everything they can to avoid people.
And if I had to choose to try and outrun a black mamba or a gorilla, I know which I’d try.

I get it, but that’s exactly my point. Unless you honestly sit on the nest, you’re fine. And even then, probably, because you’ll sound like a giant stomping when you near the nest.
Snakes don’t chase humans. Silverbacks might do it just for fun.

You really couldn’t hide from a silverback if he wanted to find you. And he might. Snakes would never chase you or hunt you or be remotely interested in you, unless you corner them. On top of that, it’s quite a lot easier to make a snakeproof area somewhere than it is to block a gorilla from doing literally anything it choooses to.
But thanks yeah, I was not aware of how fast black Mambas are. The video is interesting though.
Dude.

Oh, well, I am surprised how fast they are.

Ooooh.
But I took my link from NewPipe Sponsorblock app. Isn’t that something to do with piped? Oh well, glad bots like you exist, anyway.
I wanna see how fucking fast you walk. Do you have any idea how fast snakes can be?
