Hypothetical Animal Battles - Who would win???

Question

Hi! I am a high school science teacher, with a zoology-related question. My students are doing an 'animal battles' project where we're hypothetically putting various animal species against one another to see who would win in a battle. The species are: Killer Whale, Nile Croc, Elephant, Rhino, Polar Bear, Human (early human with non-metal tools), Leopard, Komodo Dragon, Honey Badger, and Cheetah. Who do you think would win? We'd love to hear your expert commentary!

Answer 1

The nile croc is a perfect predator. Fierce both on land and in the water. The killer whale would not be found in its habitat. Elephants are not naturally aggressive. A small elephant could be killed, and a larger one would be difficult for the croc to hunt. The rhino and polar bear would probably not be a match in the water for the croc. On land it would be a different story. Early humans would need a team to hunt the croc, and it would be very dangerous especially in the water. The leopard and badger and cheetah would be no match in the water.
