MEET THE FIGHTERS
Gorilla vs Sea Lion
Tonight's science rumble is set in the visitor lawn, now closed for SCIENCE. No snacks were harmed.
Gorilla
Gorilla gorilla
Gorillas share about 98% of their DNA with humans.
Mostly leaves, stems, and fruit. Huge herbivores, huge appetites.
Sea Lion
Zalophus californianus
Sea lions can hold their breath for about 10 minutes.
Fish, squid, and the occasional unfortunate leftover from the ocean buffet.
Who do YOU think wins?
ARK-ARK-ARK
Sea Lion
A barking torpedo in a wet tuxedo.
