MEET THE FIGHTERS
Crocodile vs Snow Leopard
Tonight's science rumble is set in a rumble pit drawn in chalk by very excited zookeepers. 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.
Snow Leopard
Panthera uncia
The tail is used for balance and as a wrap-around scarf in sleep.
Blue sheep, ibex, and the occasional livestock snack when wild food is scarce.
Who do YOU think wins?
