MEET THE FIGHTERS
Baboon vs Cheetah
Tonight's science rumble is set in a rumble pit drawn in chalk by very excited zookeepers. No snacks were harmed.
Baboon
Papio anubis
Baboons keep a lookout while others forage. Safety is a job.
Fruit, grass, insects, and the occasional small animal. Flexible and fearless at picnic tables.
Cheetah
Acinonyx jubatus
A cheetah's tail is a rudder. It steers mid-sprint like a boat.
They prefer gazelles and other speedy snacks they can outrun.
