Okapi vs Zebra
Tonight's science rumble is set in the empty savanna exhibit after closing time. 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.
Zebra
Equus quagga
Zebra stripes are unique, just like tiger stripes and human fingerprints.
Grass, grass, and more grass. They are built to mow the savanna.
