2012 World's Hardest Creature Competition, Semi Final Croc vs Hippo vs Mamba

[Mellotron]

Which reminds me, I doubt an orca would be that impressed with a black mamba.

Still using the WRONG criteria after what, 4 years now?

Four years and you still can't accept the honey badger is not the hardest animal.


You WEASELites are like Sue Pollard HARPING on about being a yellow coat. You make me SICK.

Be interested to see what happens here - I reckon there should be some more THREEWAY MELEES in the next competition.

Come on CROCODILE! Is the croc going to fall short again, or is it finally his year, now that the only animals in the competition to have beaten him-the all time champion polar bear and the honeybadger are out. Is the path clear to finlly take home the crown? Or will this season's surprise package-the black mamba-who has really grown into the tournament deny him?

It's SO exciting!

 

[New Carpet?]

People talk about the Honey Badger always going so close but never winning, but if ever a creature ever deserved to win after consistently hitting the woodwork, it the CROCODILE.

Really hope 2012 can be the CROC's year and if he can get through this tough semi-final, that he can turn Free Willy over in the Animal Bowl


EDIT: Oh well, not to be - Black Mamba vs Orca makes for a bit of a David vs Goliath, though. Could be a cracker.

 

[Simster]

Oh my goodness, snake fans dancing in the streets!

Croc beaten into 3rd. Incredible scenes!

 

[Trufflehound]

Well done Mamba. I wouldn't have put money on that - I thought the croc would take it.

Could this finally be the Year of the Snake?

Does anyone know what its previous best showing was, as I for one can't be arsed to look it up...?

 

[MattBackHome]

This is INCREDIBLE

 

[Silent Bob]

45% of the vote in a three way contest. IMPRESSIVE.

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

Ah!

Disappointed to see the croc score so poorly. I'm not sure how it managed to finish behind the hippo. Still, well done to the black mamba, WHAT a tournament it's having. It'd be story book if it goes all the way and denies the orca a place in the all time hall of fame alongside the Polar Bear.

All Hail the new African King - surely the Worlds Hardest Continent by numbers of creatures in this Tournament?

Go team Mamba!! I would appeal to all badgerites to get aboard the snake bus - a true mentalist compared to the slightly dopey whale.

A pretty impressive showing then from something that's never made it beyond the group stages before.

There clearly is hope for the Whelk next year then.
