Did you know?
- Each eye swivels independently, so it can look in two directions at once.
- Its colour changes mostly signal mood and temperature rather than simply hiding it.
Could you guess it from clues?
WildGuessr picks a secret animal, plant, fungus, stone, prehistoric creature or space object and you ask yes-or-no questions about it, such as its group or where it grows. The fewer clues you need, the more points you score.
