It’s the battle of the apex predators! In one corner, we have the Killer Whale (or Orca), the smartest hunter in the ocean that travels in packs like wolves. In the other corner, the Great White Shark, a torpedo-shaped eating machine with rows and rows of razor-sharp teeth!
Who rules the deep blue sea? We compare the Great White's terrifying bite to the Killer Whale's super-secret weapon: Echolocation! Will the shark's underwater speed be enough to escape a pod of hungry Orcas? Tune in to hear the splash, the crash, and the winner of this underwater war!

It’s a battle of strength versus... smell! In this episode of Who Would Win, we have the Jaguar, the third-largest cat in the world with jaws strong enough to bite through a turtle shell! In the other corner, we have the Skunk, a small black-and-white mammal with a secret weapon that can clear a whole room!
What happens when the Jaguar meets the Skunk in the rainforest? Will the Jaguar’s speed (50 miles per hour!) be enough to catch the Skunk? Or will the Skunk’s smelly spray send the big cat running away? We’ll learn about "warning colors," super-strong bites, and who is brave enough to win this stinky showdown!

Key Facts included from the audio:
Jaguar Stats: 3rd largest cat, excellent swimmer, strongest jaws (bites turtle shells!), runs 50 mph.

Who is the real king of the cat family? Is it the Lion, who fights with his whole family pride? Or is it the Tiger, the massive solo hunter who is bigger and sneakier? We check their super-skills, look at their fighting styles, and decide who wins the gold medal.
