MEET THE FIGHTERS
Tortoise vs Gazelle
Tonight's science rumble is set in a rumble pit drawn in chalk by very excited zookeepers. No snacks were harmed.
Tortoise
Chelonoidis niger
Giant tortoises can live more than 100 years.
Cactus, grass, and island plants. They are living lawn mowers with a 100-year warranty.
Gazelle
Eudorcas thomsonii
Thomson's gazelles can keep a fast pace longer than a cheetah's sprint lasts.
Short grass. They like the lawn freshly mowed by bigger grazers.
Who do YOU think wins?
SNORT-PRONK
