About the animals game
Guess how big animals really are with a size comparison of animals you can play. Each round pairs a familiar reference — a car, a person, a bus or another animal — with an animal to resize, from a capybara to an Antarctic blue whale.
Animals vary, so the game uses published maximums or ranges from sources such as NOAA Fisheries, the San Diego Zoo and the Australian Museum. A guess inside a published range scores full marks, and every answer links to its source.

Common questions
How does the animal game work?
Resize the animal until it looks right beside the fixed reference, then lock in. The actual size grows into place and you see how far off you were. Today’s animal set is the same for everyone; after it, keep playing animal rounds without a limit.
Why do some answers show a range?
Adult animals differ in size, so many sources publish a range. Any guess inside it earns 100 points; outside it, the nearer boundary is used.
Which measurement is used for each animal?
The question names it: length for whales and sharks, standing or shoulder height for land animals, wingspan for birds and rays. The source panel explains exactly what is measured.
