WHOMP
Giraffe
A living watchtower with a killer kick.
MEET THE FIGHTERS
Giraffe vs King Cobra
Tonight's science rumble is set in a rumble pit drawn in chalk by very excited zookeepers. No snacks were harmed.
Giraffe
Giraffa camelopardalis
A giraffe's tongue can be 45 cm long and is often purple-black.
Giraffes nibble acacia leaves, tongues and all. Thorns? Merely crunchy.
King Cobra
Ophiophagus hannah
It is the world's longest venomous snake, often over 4 meters.
Mostly other snakes. The king in the name is not a joke.
Who do YOU think wins?
HISS-HOOD
King Cobra
The tallest snake, with a hood like a warning sign.
