Orangutan vs Snow Leopard
Tonight's science rumble is set in the picnic meadow, sandwiches evacuated. No snacks were harmed.
Orangutan

Orangutan means 'person of the forest' in Malay.
Mostly fruit, plus leaves, bark, and the occasional insect snack.
Snow Leopard

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.
