What the 20 questions cover
This is the sampler round. Rather than staying with one group of animals, it draws 20 questions from across the kingdom: records, collective nouns, and the odd ones out that refuse to match the pattern their relatives set. One question may ask what a group of a certain animal is called, the next which animal holds a particular record, the next which creature in a lineup does not belong.
- Records from across the animal kingdom
- Collective nouns — the names that groups of animals go by
- Odd ones out, where one animal breaks the family rule
Because the set ranges this wide, it doubles as a fair preview of the narrower quizzes elsewhere on the site.
Where the answers come from
Every answer on Fauna passed the same check. Two authors filled in the same fixed set of keys independently — a question catalog plus structured tables covering animal classes, baby-animal names, collective nouns, breed origins, and animal sounds — and the two versions were compared value by value. Of 196 keys, 194 agreed. The two facts the authors genuinely disputed were dropped rather than scored, because a contested fact makes a rotten multiple-choice question. The site also leaves out facts that rot on their own: conservation statuses that get revised yearly, and records that keep being rewritten.
How the quiz plays
Each question gives you four options. Pick one and the marking is instant — right or wrong, with the correct answer shown either way. When the last question is done you get a full review of the round, and your best score is saved in your browser for next time. There is no signup and nothing to download; the whole quiz runs in the page.
