MEET THE FIGHTERS
Eagle vs Okapi
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.
Okapi
Okapia johnstoni
An okapi's tongue can be 45 cm long and is often dark, like a giraffe's.
Leaves, fruit, and fungi. A long tongue steals lunch from thorny branches.
Who do YOU think wins?
