A quiet giant until the chest-thump starts.
MEET THE FIGHTERS
Gorilla vs Snow Leopard
Tonight's science rumble is set in a giant zoo clearing at high noon. 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.
Snow Leopard
Panthera uncia
The tail is used for balance and as a wrap-around scarf in sleep.
Blue sheep, ibex, and the occasional livestock snack when wild food is scarce.
Who do YOU think wins?
CHUFF-YOWL
Snow Leopard
A ghost cat with a tail like a scarf.
