MEET THE FIGHTERS
Hippo vs Cougar
Tonight's science rumble is set in a sunny arena with a splash pool nobody is allowed to hog. No snacks were harmed.
Hippo
Hippopotamus amphibius
Hippo sweat looks reddish. People called it blood-sweat. It is really a natural sunscreen.
Hippos graze grass at night. By day they soak and... argue.
Cougar
Puma concolor
Also called puma, panther, and mountain lion. Same cat, many nametags.
Deer are favorite. Also raccoons, hares, and whatever the neighborhood offers.
Who do YOU think wins?
