Did you know?

  • Roughly half of all people in the world eat rice as a main food.
  • It has air channels in its stems and roots, so it can grow with its feet in flooded fields.

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.
