MEET THE FIGHTERS
Warthog vs Rattlesnake
Tonight's science rumble is set in the picnic meadow, sandwiches evacuated. 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.
Rattlesnake
Crotalus atrox
A new rattle segment is added each time they shed.
Mice, rats, rabbits — small warm snacks of the desert.
Who do YOU think wins?
