World's Hardest Creature: Second round, Match two; Chinstrap Penguin Vs Jaguar

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

Intriguing match up between two WHC debutantes. We have a hardy as **** battler against a highly calibrated skull crushing killing machine. It should throw up a fascinating debate around what constitutes hard. And as a bonus, we get a first timer in the quarter finals.

The Combatants:

Group A: 3rd (18 votes)

Intriguing combatant is the Chinstrap Penguin. He's making his debut this season in the WHC and is bringing an unusual skill set to the competition. He doesn't possess much in the way of fighting/killing pedigree but what he does possess is the hardiest of bodies and souls braving incredibly harsh conditions to trek up to 200km to feed its young.

Jaguar

Another debutante the Jaguar possesses more of the traditional WHC traits. He is an apex predator who can hunt his prey using his pace, or by crawling, swimming or climbing trees so it doesn't matter how you try to escape, he can hunt you down and kill you. And you kill you he will. Death comes from one bite from his incredibly powerful jaws (so powerful they can pierce the armour plating of reptilian shells) aimed at the base of your skull, smashing the skull and crushing the brain underneath.

hmmm

I backed the penguin in the last round as I really admire it's dedication to the cause but the Jaguar regularly takes on other big name predators and wins. It's fairly unique for the larger animals in this contest in that respect

JAG

The penguin is admirable and cute to boot, but can we really call it hard?

Now if it was world's hardiest creature we could have a winner.

The jaguar has a real shot at the title thanks to David Attenborough

I know which one would keep longer in the fridge so its the chin all the way

I like the perseverance of the penguin in trying to raise its young, but as a traditional feline backer, will vote for the Jag

Mismatch of epic proportions. This should see the "Killer of Killers" safely through to round 3.

Game over!

Congratulations to the Jaguar who didn't break sweat as he walked into the quarter finals. Much tougher tasks lie ahead.
