BELLOW-OONG
Walrus
A tusked sofa that rules the ice.
MEET THE FIGHTERS
Walrus vs Hyena
Tonight's science rumble is set in a sunny arena with a splash pool nobody is allowed to hog. No snacks were harmed.
Walrus
Odobenus rosmarus
A walrus mustache has hundreds of whiskers, each a sensor.
Clams, mostly. Sensitive whiskers find shells in the dark mud.
Hyena
Crocuta crocuta
A hyena's whoop can travel 5 kilometers.
They hunt more than they scavenge. Wildebeest, zebra, leftovers — in that order when possible.
Who do YOU think wins?
WHOOP-HAHA
Hyena
The bone-crunching comedian of the savanna.
