Animal quizzes: sort the species

The animal kingdom and its false friends

An animal that looks like a fish can be a mammal; one that flies is not necessarily a bird. Our animal quizzes play with these misleading appearances, which catch out even keen documentary viewers.

Sorting like a scientist

Each sorting rule follows biology: family, way of reproducing or diet. Every species is explained at the end of the game, with a fact to help the right answer stick.
