About this episode

The episode explores the choice between being a black bear or a black mamba, highlighting the unique traits of each animal.

It’s decision time! If you could be any animal, which one would you pick? Would you rather be a Black Bear ? You’d be big, furry, and strong enough to climb trees. You could eat honey, berries, and fish, and you’d get to sleep all winter long! OR... would you rather be a Black Mamba ? You’d be a super-fast, super-venomous snake! You could slither through the grass, scare away predators with your black mouth, and be one of the most feared animals in Africa. Which life sounds better? Being a cuddly (but tough) bear, or a speedy (and scary) snake? Tune in to hear the cool facts about both and make your choice! "This episode is a fan reading based on the book 'Would You Rather be a Black Bear or a Black Mamba?' by Jerry Pallotta and Rob Bolster. We love this book!"
