MEET THE FIGHTERS
Warthog vs Flamingo
Tonight's science rumble is set in a sunny arena with a splash pool nobody is allowed to hog. No snacks were harmed.
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.
Flamingo
Phoenicopterus roseus
Chicks hatch gray. The pink comes later, with the shrimp.
Shrimp and algae. The pink color comes from their food. They eat their outfit.
Who do YOU think wins?
HONK-HONK-PINK
