ZooChat Cup S2 Match #14: Smithsonian National vs Sedgwick County

[pachyderm pro]

sorry for the delay on today’s match, but my computer has been glitching out and I am forced to resort to mobile until then. Anyways, the capitol zoo of America against the finale seed in round one with a category either zoo could take ungulates. The National Zoo has the Elephant Trails complex plus a fairly new bison yard. Sedgwick County also has a large very modern elephant complex, plus bison as well as other species.

Tomorrow: Los Angeles vs Phoenix

Sedgwick County seems to be the obvious winner here; much more variety, spacious enclosures and a more varied collection. Even their children's farm has a nice selection of domestic hoofstock. Smithsonian has no giraffe, rhino or hippo which is shocking for a major player.

I really like the Smithsonian National Zoo, but Ungulates are definitely not it's strong suit. Sedgwick has some nice species and nice enclosures, so my vote goes to them.
