MEET THE FIGHTERS
Okapi vs Snow Leopard
Tonight's science rumble is set in a giant zoo clearing at high noon. 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.
Snow Leopard
Panthera uncia
The tail is used for balance and as a wrap-around scarf in sleep.
Blue sheep, ibex, and the occasional livestock snack when wild food is scarce.
Who do YOU think wins?
CHUFF-YOWL
