Ophiophagy, the practice of snakes eating other snakes, serves as a survival strategy for certain species like the King Cobra and Eastern Kingsnake. These snakes reduce competition and ensure a steady food supply by preying on other snakes, including venomous ones. Cannibalism, driven by food scarcity or stress, also occurs among snakes, particularly in captivity. This behavior has significant ecological and evolutionary implications, reflecting the adaptability and specialized survival strategies of these fascinating reptiles.
