MEET THE FIGHTERS
Lemur vs Gorilla
Tonight's science rumble is set in a rumble pit drawn in chalk by very excited zookeepers. No snacks were harmed.
Lemur
Lemur catta
A lemur's tail has 13 or so black-and-white rings. It is a flag and a balancing pole.
Fruit, leaves, bark, and the occasional insect snack.
Gorilla
Gorilla gorilla
Gorillas share about 98% of their DNA with humans.
Mostly leaves, stems, and fruit. Huge herbivores, huge appetites.
Who do YOU think wins?
HOOT-HOOT-BAM
Gorilla
A quiet giant until the chest-thump starts.
