Unlike other battles, this is more than just a one on one fight to the death. It's the ultimate battle of fauna vs. fauna as two of the most lethally exotic creatures from lost worlds and distant lands take to the hunt! Skull Island, the remote land of ruthlessly primordial dinosaurs who have evolved through the millenia to become the ultimate hunters, vs Pandora, the planet-sized moon home to otherworldly aliens that make up a deadly ecosystem of capable predator and cunning prey! It's tooth and claw against bone and jaw as these vastly diverse natural killers go head to head! Both teams are built for battle and both are savagely unafraid of death. But who would win a Death Battle?

Skull Island

Skull Island is a island that is the last refugee prehistoric creatures of ages past, that have evolved into far more terrifying modern-day forms, and perhaps most famously the fifty-foot gorilla Kong. Located at approximately 12 degrees South and 78 degrees East (near Sumatra, Indonesia), Skull Island is named for a distinctive knoll in the center that bears resemblance to a human head. Also inhabited by a savage indigenous population, who have constructed massive gates to hold Kong at bay, Skull Island is a recluse location that has allowed the prehistoric beasts of millions of years ago to develop into frightening fighting machines far evolved from their cousins of the past.

Combatants

King Kong

Kong is the iconic giant gorilla of Skull Island and the last of the Megaprimatus Kong species, reaching 25 feet at his shoulder and weighing in at about 20 tons. Kong is remarkably intelligent for a beast, and is capable of physical feats such as scaling massive cliff faces (or skyscrapers) while simultaneously fighting off flying foes, be they aerial predators of Skull Island or aeroplanes.
 * 25 feet tall
 * 20 tons
 * Omnivorous
 * Intelligent
 * Strong upper-body strength

V. Rex

The V. Rex is a terrifying descendent of the famous T. Rex made deadlier through millennia of evolution. The V-Rex is the apex predator of Skull Island, matched only in strength and ferocity by Kong himself. In fact, the Rexes hunted Kong's species to extinction. Built with thick leather-like padding over their durable bones, the V-Rex is able to shrug off most attacks from any creatures foolish enough to put up a fight. Its enormous biting force and its incredibly heavy weight are its two most lethal weapons, making it the powerhouse of Skull Island.
 * 25 feet tall
 * 30 tons
 * Carnivorous
 * Apex predator
 * Enormous bite force

Venatosaurus

The Venatosaurus is an evolved form of the Velociraptor dinosaur, with its pack mentality and lightweight build allowing it to continue its role as fast ground predator. Their eyes are placed high on their heads, which allow them to peer over cover while remaining hidden, and their forearms are notably stronger, allowing them to grab onto and hold prey in place. They also have incredibly sharp claws on the edges of their limbs, allowing for a raking attack that proves useful both in attacking and defense.
 * 6 feet tall
 * 21 feet long
 * Carnivorous
 * Pack hunter
 * Fast, lightweight, mobile

Brontosaurus

The Brontosaurus baxteri is the largest creature on Skull Island. A more developed form of the Allosaurus "long-necked" dinosaur, the Brontosaurus has a longer neck and heavier weight to allow them to reach the leaves they need to survive. Although they are peaceful herbivores, they become incredibly dangerous when spooked, as they are prone to panicking and stampeding, trampling any smaller creatures unlucky enough to be trapped underneath and bowling over any larger creatures that stand in their way.
 * 15 feet at hip
 * 18 tons
 * Herbivorous
 * Easily spooked
 * Dangerous in stampede

Ferructus

The Ferrucutus is a ceratopsian dinosaur (descended of the triceratops) that follow Brontosaurus herds to feed on the trampled leaves and bushes knocked down by the larger herbivores. They are extremely territorial, however, and challenge all intruders with head-on assaults, relying on their formidable frontal armor and facial horns to gore the opposition into submission. Some Ferrucutus have even proven capable of taking on lone V-Rexes and forcing them to retreat.
 * 10 feet tall
 * 8 tons
 * Herbivorous
 * Aggressive
 * Thick neck armor, facial horns used in defense

Foetodon

The Foetodon is a lizard-like land-dweller that is covered in a hard, scaly surface (similar to a crocodile's). They are mostly scavengers as a result of their slow speed, but are capable of holding their own in a fight, thanks to their lethally toxic bite, a result of the large amount of bacteria that reside within its stinking jaws.
 * 1300 pounds
 * 65 feet long
 * Carnivorous, scavenger
 * Poisonous bite
 * Ambushes prey

Terapusmordax

The Terapusmordax is a huge bat-like flying rat, the hybrid evolution of bats and pterosaurs. Their extreme sense of hearing allows them to locate potential prey from extreme distances, and they swoop in from above for surprise attacks - they have even been known to carry away small dinosaurs like the Venatosaurus in extreme instances. The Terapusmordax is a hairless, cave-dwelling creature and is primarily nocturnal, although if disturbed during the daytime it will still remain aggressive.
 * 3-4 feet long
 * 10-foot wingspan
 * Omnivorous
 * Agile in the air
 * Extreme sense of hearing

Skull Islanders

The sole human inhabitants of Skull Islands, these people of an unknown origin, live in a world where humanity is reduced to insects. And yet, they persist on what little they have. However, they are hostile to anything they can take down... including eachother should food be scarce.
 * Five feet tall in average
 * Omnivorous
 * Are master fishermen, and travel via pole vaulting
 * Use weapons made of bone, stone, and shell

Pandora

Pandora is an enormous moon that orbits the planet Polyphemus, and is home to a wide host of unique natural creatures that have evolved to inhabit specific biological niches necessary to the continued survival of Pandora's ecosystem. Pandora is notable for its dense jungles and steep mountains, as well as floating land masses that house individual, smaller ecosystems. The native intelligent species of Pandora are known as the Na'vi, who have developed their own culture centered around the ritualized worship of nature. Although isolated in space, humans from Earth were able to make contact with the natives of Pandora and embarked on an ultimately unsuccessful attempt at conquest, leaving the moon to itself.

Great Leonopteryx

The Great Leonopteryx is an airborne predator that dominates the skies on Pandora, thanks to its enormous widespan and twin tails for flight control. Their eyes possess a remarkable quality of vision, but they cannot see directly above themselves - although they need not worry as the apex aerial predator. The Great Leonopteryx excels in vast, open areas for hunting like open skies as its large size requires ample space for movement.
 * 6 feet long
 * 82-foot wingspan
 * Carnivorous
 * Intelligent
 * Agile in air

Thanator

The Thanator is the apex land predator on Pandora, and most closely resembles a panther when compared to terrestrial creatures. The Thanator is incredibly fast and agile, and can subdue prey not only with its incredibly powerful jaws but with strikes from its armored tail. It has sensory quills that function similarly to a cat's whiskers, granting it a better sense of its surroundings. Its speed and striking force are usually enough to subdue even the most resistant of prey.
 * 8 feet tall
 * 2 tons
 * Carnivorous
 * Apex predator
 * Armored tail club

Viperwolf

The Viperwolf is a six-legged pack hunter with opposable thumbs on each paw that allow it to climb trees for greater mobility. It is armored around the neck, with a sleek, hairless body for rapid mobility. Its jaws can dislocate for a wider and more powerful bite, similar those of a snake's, and its dark skin makes it especially effective at night hunting. Because it is a pack animal, the Viperwolf will take turns striking a distressed animal with its packmates to bring the injured prey down.
 * 3 feet tall
 * 6 feet long
 * Carnivorous
 * Pack hunter
 * Fast, lightweight, mobile

Hammerhead Titanothere

The Hammerhead Titanothere is a relatively peaceful plant-eater, but it is easily angered when confronted with a wide range of perceived threats. The Hammerhead Titanothere's hammerhead structure is composed of cartilage but solidifies into bone as it matures. Its poor vision is balanced with acute senses of hearing and smell. When provoked, it will attempt a frontal charge, with its massive bulk usually enough to send most animals fleeing.
 * 20 feet tall
 * 45 tons
 * Herbivorous
 * Ill-tempered
 * Armored body plates

Sturmbeest

Sturmbeest are herd animals. They are extremely social and highly protective of their young. They are also territorial and will mass for attack against any would be predator. When the predator is too large or in too great a number, they will stampede, often breaking off into smaller packs for evasion.
 * 4.5 meters tall
 * 8.5 tons
 * Herbivorous
 * Agressive
 * Six-legged

Slinger

The Slinger is a highly deadly carnivore that hunts its prey with an intricate self-decapitating system. It snaps its neck forward, dislodging the head, which embeds itself into the victim's body. The head then emits a series of high-pitched signals that guide the headless body back to the head. Once the head has had its fill, it reattaches to the body and continues hunting as before.
 * English link here. You're welcome.
 * 450 pounds
 * 7 feet tall
 * Carnivorous
 * Detachable head flies into prey and attracts body with high-pitched squeals
 * Highly venomous

Forest Banshee

The Forest Banshee is a smaller, slower variant of the Great Leonopteryx. Its four wings allow for mobility in the air, and its obsidian teeth tear through smaller prey and weakened predators alike. They also have specialized flight muscles and a stiffened torso to support their large wings. They have been known to travel in packs, but generally prefer to hunt alone.
 * 3-4 feet long
 * 7-foot wingspan
 * Carnivorous
 * Agile in the air
 * Obsidian-like teeth

Na'vi

A sentient race native to Pandora, the Na'vi are a deeply spiritual race who believe that every living thing in their world is part of a Goddess called Eywa. Despite this, they do hunt for survival, and occessinally war against eachother, and against human invaders. So, which fauna group do you think would take home the gold trophy? 
 * 3.9 meters tall
 * Unknown Weight
 * Omnivorous
 * Weapons are made of bone, wood, and obsedion
 * Bones have natural carbon fiber
 * Ride Direhorses and Banshees
