BOOM-RUMBLE
Cassowary
The rainforest's dinosaur that never left.
MEET THE FIGHTERS
Cassowary vs King Cobra
Tonight's science rumble is set in a rumble pit drawn in chalk by very excited zookeepers. No snacks were harmed.
Cassowary
Casuarius casuarius
Dads sit on the eggs and raise the striped chicks.
Mostly fruit. They are forest gardeners who accidentally plant trees with leftovers.
King Cobra
Ophiophagus hannah
It is the world's longest venomous snake, often over 4 meters.
Mostly other snakes. The king in the name is not a joke.
Who do YOU think wins?
HISS-HOOD
King Cobra
The tallest snake, with a hood like a warning sign.
