- Most sulfur used today is recovered from oil and natural gas, and most of it ends up as sulfuric acid.
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.
