Gorilla
Gorilla gorilla
Gorillas share about 98% of their DNA with humans.
Mostly leaves, stems, and fruit. Huge herbivores, huge appetites.
Cheetah
Acinonyx jubatus
A cheetah's tail is a rudder. It steers mid-sprint like a boat.
They prefer gazelles and other speedy snacks they can outrun.
Who do YOU think wins?
