Did you know?

  • Its fossils were first found in eastern Greenland in the early 1930s.
  • Each of its back feet had seven toes, not five like most four-legged animals today.

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.
