Questions for a quiz about animals (with answers)
1. Why don’t they kill fur-bearing animals in the spring?
(In the spring, fur-bearing animals shed, lose their thick and warm undercoat, this depreciates the value of the fur. In addition, in the spring the animals have cubs.)
2. Why does a horse start to snort when scared?
(The horse has a very acute sense of smell. By snorting, it clears its nose and can quickly determine what is threatening it and from which side.)
3. Why can moose run relatively easily through swamps where any other animal of the same weight would get stuck?
(An elk has two hooves on each leg, between which a membrane is stretched. When it runs, the hooves move apart, the membrane is stretched, the pressure of the animal’s body is distributed over a relatively large area of support, and the elk does not get stuck.)
4. Why do chickens, turkeys and some other granivorous birds swallow small pebbles?
(The pebbles that a chicken swallows help it digest grains better. Chickens and other granivorous birds have a special organ-muscular stomach with very thick walls and powerful muscles. When the stomach contracts, the grains rub against the pebbles and are crushed. The stomach with pebbles replaces the chicken’s teeth. )
5. Why do chickens pluck their feathers with their beaks before the rain?
(Anticipating rain, chickens lubricate their feathers with fat from the coccygeal gland. This gland is located under their tail.)
6. When is the white hare most noticeable?
(When it fades to gray, before the snow melts, or when the ground is exposed before the white hare fades.)
7. Will bunnies be born blind or sighted?
(The bunnies will be born sighted.)
8. Where is it more convenient for a hare to run, from the mountain or up the mountain?
(Uphill. The hare’s front legs are short and the back legs are long. Therefore, the hare runs uphill easily, but from a steep mountain it flies head over heels.)
9. What terrible predatory animal loves raspberries very much?
(Bear.)
10. Does a bear go to the den skinny or fat?
(Fat. Fat warms and nourishes a sleeping bear.)
11. What does “legs feed the wolf” mean?
(The wolf does not guard its prey in ambush, like cats, but runs after it.)
12. Which cow lives better: the tailed one or the tailless one?
(Tailed, because with its tail the cow drives insects away from itself while nibbling the grass. A tailless cow has nothing to brush off gadflies and flies with. She has to constantly shake her head and move from place to place, so she eats less.)
13. Can elephants swim?
(They can. They also know how to dive into water, exposing the end of their trunk above its surface.)
14. Which animal will give birth to its babies in the fall?
(A hare has three litters during the summer: the first at the end of April and May, the second at the beginning of July, the third at the end of August and beginning of September, when the leaves from the trees begin to fall. These very latest babies are called deciduous ones.)
15. Which forest dweller dries mushrooms on his trees?
(Squirrel. She plants mushrooms on tree branches, and in winter she finds them and eats them.)
16. Are a cat’s eyes the same during the day and at night?
(They are not the same. During the day, in sunlight, the cat’s pupils are small, but by night they dilate greatly.)
17. What animals fly?
(Bats. The flying squirrel, a squirrel living in our forests with leathery membranes between its legs, also flies a distance of several tens of meters.)
18. What animal sleeps upside down all winter?
(Bat.)
19. Which animals can be said to crawl out of their way?
(When snakes molt, they actually crawl out of the old skin, squeezing between roots, stones, etc. By the time they molt, young skin has already formed.)
20. We often use the expression “...where the crayfish spend the winter.” Where do crayfish really spend the winter?
(Crayfish spend the winter underwater, in natural underwater burrows, or dig such burrows themselves. In these burrows they are not always inactive. Often, sticking out a claw, the crayfish grabs a fish swimming by.)
21. Does cancer always move backward?
(Crayfish actually always swim backwards, but they always rush forward towards food.)
22. Which fish takes care of its children until they grow up?
(Stickleback.)
23. Which of our birds flies the fastest?
(Swift.)
24. What birds dig holes for their nests?
(Sand swallow, bee-eater, kingfisher and others.)
25. What bird’s chicks don’t know their mother?
(Cuckoo chicks. She throws eggs and gives her chicks to other birds to feed.)
26. Which birds have all their fingers connected to each other by a membrane?
(Cormorants and pelicans, ducks and seagulls have only three out of four toes.)
27. Do our birds nest in the south?
(No.)
28. Which birds walk most of the way from the south?
(Crake, marsh hen.)
29. What does a grasshopper chirp with?
(There are notches on the grasshopper’s leg and hooks on the wing. The cracking sound comes from the friction of the leg on the wing.)
30. Where is the grasshopper's ear?
(The grasshopper's hearing organ is located in the shins of the front pair of legs.)
31. Which birds have wings covered not with feathers, but with scales?
(In penguins.)
32. What beetles are named after the month in which they appear?
(May and June.)
33. Who will be born three times before becoming an adult?
(Many insects, for example butterflies: an egg, a caterpillar from whose pupa a butterfly emerges.)
34. Where do butterflies go in the fall?
(Most of them die with the first cold weather. Some climb into the cracks of trees, fences, houses, and overwinter there.)
35. What happens to the bee after it stings?
(He will die.)
36. What animal makes a nest on the grass and in the bushes?
(Little mouse.)
37. Which monkey is the biggest?
(Gorilla.)
38. What animals sleep with their eyes open?
(Fishes have no eyelids, snakes have fused eyelids.)
39. Is a whale a fish? Is a dolphin a fish?
(No, whales and dolphins are mammals.)
40. They say that some birds have special “nurseries”. Is this true or not?
(“Nurseries” are owned by penguins. When the babies are a month old, they gather in a tight circle and sit there, keeping each other warm while their parents get food. In such “nurseries” there are up to a thousand penguins, and it is very difficult for the “educators” to keep track of not a single one ran away. After a month, the chicks exchange their “nursery” downy outfit for feathers and, together with the adult birds, go to sea.)
41. Why do swallows fly low before the rain?
(They fly after insects, which the cold air nails to the ground.)

Today you will go on a journey around planet Earth. You will observe animals and birds, answer my questions and complete tasks.
You are divided into groups, you must choose a team name so that it is the name of an animal, and describe it (what it does, what it eats, what color it is, where it lives) everyone from the team must tell
1 participant - 10 points
The journey has begun.
1 station “Earth”.
Leading: Name the wild animals based on their descriptions.
“I am very big, about two meters tall, and my weight is 350 kg. I have brown fur, small ears and a tail. I can walk on my hind legs and climb trees in search of food. And I eat fish, berries, I can feast on ants, worms and beetle larvae. I spend the whole winter hibernating, and in the spring I come out of the den thin, hungry and angry.” (Bear.)
“I have a sharp muzzle, erect ears, and a very finely developed sense of smell. I'm very gluttonous. I eat meat, attacking deer, elk, rodents, but sometimes, when I can’t find anything, I subsist on plant foods - berries. I like to hunt at night, alone. Sometimes I chase prey for hours, running not even a single kilometer. But in winter, to feed ourselves, we gather in flocks.” (Wolf.)
“My sense of smell is very acute. The biggest delicacy for me is field mice. A mouse squeaks a little and I can hear it a hundred meters away, even in winter, when it hides under the snow. I can eat up to 20 of them a day. I hunt at night, and during the day I like to rest. They often call me a red-haired cheat.” (Fox.)
“I live with my family in a hole, which I dug with my front paws and covered with soft grass and fluff. I'm very careful. Before approaching the hole, I will make several jumps to the side, then several jumps to the other side, and only then I jump into my house. In winter, in order to be invisible in the snow, I change my fur coat.” (Hare.)
“I, a kind, fussy animal, live everywhere. I have a long bushy tail and beady eyes. The tail, almost equal to the length of my body (about 20 cm), serves as a pole and umbrella, allowing me to maintain balance and jump along branches. There are small tassels on the ears that protect my ears from frost. On very frosty days I sit in a hollow tree and eat acorns, dry mushrooms, and nuts.” Squirrel.
You can call me a forest giant. My ears are large and mobile. My hearing is well developed. I love to eat herbs, leaves of bushes and trees, mosses and mushrooms. I even love fly agarics, but I don’t advise you to eat them. I have very beautiful horns, but once a year I have to shed them. (Elk)

Do you know?
When washing, a polar bear can pick up snow in its paws and wipe its eyes and ears with it.
The mouse goes to sleep on its babies, covering them with itself like a blanket so that they do not freeze.
The wolf pulls a splinter out of its paw with its teeth, and if it gets sick, it is treated with hunger and medicinal herbs.
The hare does not sweat, and in hot weather it releases excess heat through its long, thin ears, which contain many blood vessels.
A camel can go for a long time without water, but then it drinks several buckets at once.
An Indian rhinoceros, plunging into water, escapes from horseflies and gadflies, which lay eggs in the folds of its skin.
The Indian elephant is smaller than the African elephant, and its ears are not so large, but it is less aggressive, very smart and laid down
A beaver chews through a 12 cm thick willow trunk in 5 minutes. And if the tree is thicker, the beavers work together: while one is gnawing, the other is resting, and then they change.
One of the dams in the USA, built by beavers, reached a length of 700 m. And the hut, which the beavers completed every year, rose by 13 m.
There were no horses in America until the Spaniards brought them there. These animals, unseen by the natives, helped Europeans conquer new lands.
