MEET THE FIGHTERS
Eagle vs Hippo
Tonight's science rumble is set in the visitor lawn, now closed for SCIENCE. No snacks were harmed.
Eagle
Haliaeetus leucocephalus
The famous movie scream is often a red-tailed hawk. Eagles sound squeakier.
Fish first, plus water birds and carrion. They are not too proud for leftovers.
Hippo
Hippopotamus amphibius
Hippo sweat looks reddish. People called it blood-sweat. It is really a natural sunscreen.
Hippos graze grass at night. By day they soak and... argue.
Who do YOU think wins?

A floating boulder with kitchen-knife tusks.
