MEET THE FIGHTERS
Warthog vs Jaguar
Tonight's science rumble is set in the empty savanna exhibit after closing time. 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.
Jaguar
Panthera onca
Jaguars often kill with one bite to the skull. Efficient. Intense. Not a hug.
Capybara, deer, fish, caimans — the menu is the whole forest.
Who do YOU think wins?
UH-UH-GRUNT
Jaguar
The skull-cracker of the rainforest.
