MEET THE FIGHTERS
Chimpanzee vs Cassowary
Tonight's science rumble is set in the picnic meadow, sandwiches evacuated. No snacks were harmed.
Chimpanzee
Pan troglodytes
Chimps share about 98% of their DNA with humans.
Fruit first, plus insects, leaves, and sometimes meat. Flexible eaters.
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.
Who do YOU think wins?
BOOM-RUMBLE
