MEET THE FIGHTERS
Okapi vs Ostrich
Tonight's science rumble is set in the visitor lawn, now closed for SCIENCE. No snacks were harmed.
Okapi
Okapia johnstoni
An okapi's tongue can be 45 cm long and is often dark, like a giraffe's.
Leaves, fruit, and fungi. A long tongue steals lunch from thorny branches.
Ostrich
Struthio camelus
An ostrich egg is about 15 cm long and could make breakfast for a whole team.
Plants, seeds, insects, and the occasional lizard. Not picky.
Who do YOU think wins?
BOOM-KICK
Ostrich
The kick that thinks it is a dinosaur.
