SNORT-PRONK
Gazelle
A spring with horns and a stotting hobby.
MEET THE FIGHTERS
Gazelle vs Koala
Tonight's science rumble is set in the empty savanna exhibit after closing time. No snacks were harmed.
Gazelle
Eudorcas thomsonii
Thomson's gazelles can keep a fast pace longer than a cheetah's sprint lasts.
Short grass. They like the lawn freshly mowed by bigger grazers.
Koala
Phascolarctos cinereus
A koala's fingerprint looks a lot like a human's. Weird science.
Almost only eucalyptus. Most of those leaves would upset other animals' stomachs.
Who do YOU think wins?
BELLOW-SNOOZE
Koala
A sleepy specialist with surprising claws.
