MEET THE FIGHTERS
Boa vs Cheetah
Tonight's science rumble is set in the visitor lawn, now closed for SCIENCE. No snacks were harmed.
Boa
Boa constrictor
Boas give birth to live young, like anacondas.
Rodents, birds, lizards — medium meals, no need to be famous about it.
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.
