The black mamba eats a variety of prey including small birds and mammals primarily. It has been known to eat small chickens, bats, and bushbabies (a type of small nocturnal primate native to Africa). They have been known to eat other snakes as well - there are even reports of black mambas eating cobras.
To make this 'TRUTH', replace Black Mamba with King Cobra, and replace Exclusively with Primarily, and you've got the TRUTH !
The king cobra's generic name, Ophiophagus is a Greek-derived word that means "snake-eater". Its diet consists primarily of other snakes, including rat snakes, pythons, and even other venomous snakes such as various members of the true cobras and the krait.
