MEET THE FIGHTERS
Crocodile vs Armadillo
Tonight's science rumble is set in a giant zoo clearing at high noon. No snacks were harmed.
Crocodile
Crocodylus niloticus
Crocodiles have been around since the time of dinosaurs.
Fish, mammals, birds — if it comes to the water's edge, it is on the menu.
Armadillo
Dasypus novemcinctus
Nine-banded armadillos usually have identical quadruplets.
Insects, grubs, and the occasional small snack. A sticky tongue helps.
Who do YOU think wins?
