It’s a battle of stretchiness in the animal kingdom!  The battle begins Thursday, May 14th at 11 am ET.

Will you be…

Team Elephant

With the power of extreme noses, elephants know how to work their trunks!  With 40,000 muscles, the elephant’s trunk is basically its Swiss army knife.  It uses it to sniff, pick up objects, and to give awesome hugs!!!  Awwww.

Elephants are friendly and social creatures, who have been known to show a range of emotions such as compassion, grief, altruism and playfulness.  They literally have big hearts, which weigh between 27 and and 46 pounds!

Team Giraffe

With the power of extreme height, even a giraffe’s legs tower above most humans at approximately 6 feet in length! Giraffes also wield not one, not two, but four stomachs! With feet the size of dinner plates, they will give a swift kick to any predator trying to attack their young.

They also have adorable horns called ossicones, and unique black tongues whose color is thought to protect them from getting sunburned! Pretty cool!

So would you rather be able to smell through your hand, or never have to move when the guy in the Abe Lincoln hat sits in front of you in the movie theater?  (On second thought, you might want to move anyway).

Make your choice and let the battle begin!
