MEET THE FIGHTERS
Sea Lion vs Walrus
Tonight's science rumble is set in the empty savanna exhibit after closing time. No snacks were harmed.
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.
Walrus
Odobenus rosmarus
A walrus mustache has hundreds of whiskers, each a sensor.
Clams, mostly. Sensitive whiskers find shells in the dark mud.
Who do YOU think wins?
BELLOW-OONG
