Komodo Dragon vs Armadillo
Tonight's science rumble is set in the empty savanna exhibit after closing time. No snacks were harmed.
Komodo Dragon
Varanus komodoensis
Komodo dragons can smell a meal from several kilometers away.
Deer, pigs, water buffalo, even other dragons. Growing teens will try anything.
Armadillo
Dasypus novemcinctus
Nine-banded armadillos usually have identical quadruplets.
Insects, grubs, and the occasional small snack. A sticky tongue helps.
Who do YOU think wins?
