Komodo Dragon vs Red Panda
Tonight's science rumble is set in a sunny arena with a splash pool nobody is allowed to hog. 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.
Red Panda
Ailurus fulgens
Red pandas are mostly crepuscular — dawn and dusk are their prime time.
Mostly bamboo, plus fruit, eggs, and insects when the salad bar is closed.
Who do YOU think wins?
