MEET THE FIGHTERS
Red Panda vs Warthog
Tonight's science rumble is set in the empty savanna exhibit after closing time. No snacks were harmed.
Red Panda
Ailurus fulgens
Red pandas are mostly crepuscular — dawn and dusk are their prime time.
Mostly bamboo, plus fruit, eggs, and insects when the salad bar is closed.
Warthog
Phacochoerus africanus
The tail stands up when they run — a follow-me flag for piglets.
Grass, roots, and leftovers. They kneel on padded wrists to graze.
Who do YOU think wins?
GRUNT-SQUEE
Warthog
A tusked sprinter who reverse-parks into burrows.
