MEET THE FIGHTERS
King Cobra vs Warthog
Tonight's science rumble is set in a rumble pit drawn in chalk by very excited zookeepers. No snacks were harmed.
King Cobra
Ophiophagus hannah
It is the world's longest venomous snake, often over 4 meters.
Mostly other snakes. The king in the name is not a joke.
Warthog
Phacochoerus africanus
The tail stands up when they run — a follow-me flag for piglets.
Grass, roots, and leftovers. They kneel on padded wrists to graze.
Who do YOU think wins?
GRUNT-SQUEE
