This morning on the news here they had a "funny" topic about this. The reporter was in a zoo, asking the animal caretakers which animal should now take the role for predicting events. They asked a camel, a monkey, a rhinoceros and other animals to predict the outcome of a soccer match. Let's see which one is the most accurate...

Which animal do you think would be best suited?
