MEET THE FIGHTERS
Cassowary vs Meerkat
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.
Meerkat
Suricata suricatta
Meerkats have dark eye patches that work like built-in sunglasses.
Insects, scorpions, eggs, and the occasional lizard. They even eat venomous scorpions.
Who do YOU think wins?
CHK-CHK-ALARM
