MEET THE FIGHTERS
Orangutan vs Sea Lion
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.
Sea Lion
Zalophus californianus
Sea lions can hold their breath for about 10 minutes.
Fish, squid, and the occasional unfortunate leftover from the ocean buffet.
Who do YOU think wins?
ARK-ARK-ARK
Sea Lion
A barking torpedo in a wet tuxedo.
