Orangutan vs Camel
Tonight's science rumble is set in a rumble pit drawn in chalk by very excited zookeepers. No snacks were harmed.
Orangutan
Pongo pygmaeus
Orangutan means 'person of the forest' in Malay.
Mostly fruit, plus leaves, bark, and the occasional insect snack.
Camel
Camelus dromedarius
The hump stores fat, not water. Fat is backup batteries.
Tough desert plants other animals will not touch. Thorns included.
Who do YOU think wins?
