MEET THE FIGHTERS
Boa vs Tapir
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.
Tapir
Tapirus terrestris
Tapirs have been around for millions of years. Living fossils with a snorkel.
Leaves, fruit, and shoots. They plant forests by pooping seeds. Heroic and weird.
Who do YOU think wins?
WHEE-SQUEAK
Tapir
A forest tank with a mini trunk.
