Kangaroo vs Orangutan
Tonight's science rumble is set in a sunny arena with a splash pool nobody is allowed to hog. No snacks were harmed.
Kangaroo
Macropus rufus
Kangaroos cannot hop backward. The contract with physics is one-way.
Grasses and shrubs. They are hoppy lawn mowers.
Orangutan
Pongo pygmaeus
Orangutan means 'person of the forest' in Malay.
Mostly fruit, plus leaves, bark, and the occasional insect snack.
Who do YOU think wins?
