How to play
- Don't judge by looks
- Bats are mammals, not birds, and a polar bear's skin is black, not white. Lots of answers aren't what they seem.
- How bodies work
- Questions also cover body structure, like octopus hearts, giraffe neck bones and shark skeletons.
- Review only what you missed
- Under your result you'll find each question you missed, what you picked, the right answer and why.

Frequently asked questions
- An animal's name differs from my textbook.
- We use the common name, and add the other one in brackets when an animal has two.
- Are the numbers exact?
- Animals vary a lot, so we ask with round figures like about or nearly.
- Do I get the same questions every time?
- Each round is picked at random. Only a friend's challenge link gives you the same questions in the same order.
