Ever wondered where you rank in the animal kingdom’s hierarchy of intelligence? Fire off some miscellaneous trivia and you can find out! Careful, though; a shady trivia performance = a shady animal result! (There are 30 questions...get going!)

What Animal Are You Based On Your Success At Random Trivia?

I hate to break it to you, but we're not in the Star Wars universe...

The Milky Way Galaxy!

What galaxy is our solar system located in?

Balinese!

Penny earned 1 gold, 1 silver and 2 bronze medals for swimming quickly through a pool; not for jumping off a high platform, paddling around in a boat, or riding a horse. :)

Swimming!

In what summer Olympic sport did Penny Oleksiak win 4 medals for Team Canada in 2016?

That would be Picasso. You know, one of the most iconic painters in history and a definitive founder of the cubist movement. That one.

Pablo Picasso!

Nunavut's the newbie. Its name means "Our Land", which is cool. Meanwhile Northwest Territories has been around for 147 years...so hopefully you didn't pick that one. :p

Nunavut!

Which of Canada’s territories was the last to join in 1999?

Hadrian's wall used to mark the divide between the 'barbaric' north and the 'civilized' south when the Romans lived here. (Sound familiar, GoT fans?)

The United Kingdom!

Where would one go to find Hadrian’s Wall?

An ophthalmologist is definitely more concerned about eyes than opioids...

Eyes!

But I mean if there was going to be another right answer it would definitely be Marcos. He's the new Kencos.

Ken!

I think 6 would be an awfully short game...

1917

What year did the Battle of Passchendaele take place?

Down in the same neighbourhood as the Philippines. :p

Pacific!

What ocean is the Marianas Trench found in?

Chlorophyll!

Parliaments are for owls. Batteries are for barracudas. Quivers are for cobras. Which means kaleidoscopes are for butterflies!

A Kaleidoscope!

Yes, Miroslav Satan is a real person. ;) But he didn't score the goal in question.

Paul Henderson!

Who scored the winning goal for Team Canada in the 1972 ice hockey Summit Series?

MARTY!!! We've got to go _back_ to the future!

1985!

What year does the movie Back To The Future take place?

A long time ago there were Moorish people in Spain. They built a nice fortress called the Alhambra and ruled their Kingdom from there. You should go- it's very nice.

Spain!

What present-day country once contained the Moorish Kingdom Of Granada?

Hopefully you didn't select Air Canada, even if you had no idea what Airbus was.

Airbus!

What manufacturer makes the world’s largest passenger aircraft, the A380?

Every county in the entire world has at least one of the rings' colours on their flag. :)

Unfortunately, Santa is not a scientist. (Yes, this is a picture of Darwin, not St. Nick)

Darwin!

Maleficent?

Who is the antagonist in Disney’s Sleeping Beauty?

The others are in Denmark, Sweden, and Iceland, so...

Oslo!

"A Mumbai teen reflects on his upbringing in the slums when he is accused of cheating on the Indian Version of "Who Wants to be a Millionaire?"" (Says IMDb)
A very good movie, in truth. Do not be scared away by teenage reflection.

A very important historical read for animal welfare enthusiasts everywhere...

When it comes to visible light, red light is the lowest frequency but has the longest wavelength.
Life Hack: Always remember your EM spectrum.

Red!

What colour of visible light has the longest electromagnetic wavelength?

Well, I’ll just say it. You must have been too busy following your friends off a cliff to give this trivia full effort. I know you can do better. Don’t be a small, furry, potato-like follower; be a leader. Tread your own path. Stay away from cliffs.

Lemming

I hate to break it to you, but in addition to your lack of a gift for doing trivia, you also sometimes mistake your own arm for a tree branch and fall out of your own tree. On the bright side, your life is chill and you get to be upside down all the time. You’d think all that blood rushing to your head might help your trivia scores a bit…but nevertheless, you tried. At least a little bit.

Sloth

The good news is…you’re a turkey! The bad news is…you’re a turkey…so you have some snazzy feathers, but that’s about it. Not sure what’s up with the dangly thing on your face, or your obsession with gobbling, but at least you contain tryptophan for humans to enjoy! That’s something, I suppose. The world needs turkeys, too.

Turkey

Surprise! Pandas are not all that good at trivia…or anything else, really. You might want to go brush up on your miscellaneous facts, since you risk comparison to an animal that, though adorable and cuddly, eats nothing but bamboo and has the brains one would expect off such a bland diet. I mean, if you’re a panda you eat bamboo even though your digestive system was designed for meat. You tend to not know you’re pregnant until you give birth. You spend all your time sleeping and eating. But I mean, you do you, of course. At least you’re fuzzy.

Panda

Well, you’re a goat. You often eat grass. Sometimes you eat other things too. You might not be the smartest in the animal kingdom, but you’re not the dumbest, either, so there’s that. At least you’re famous for your screaming, if for nothing else.

Goat

Congrats. You are equal parts annoying, adorable, and clever. Sure, you love waking people up with your weird noises and stealing birdseed from bird feeders, but you also have some smarts. Enough to achieve a passing grade in this trivia, at least. Points for being adorable and cunning. Deductions for carrying literally anything in your mouth, since I’m not sure that’s a trait that suggests intelligence.

Squirrel

I mean, at least you’re the smartest invertebrate in the animal kingdom! You may not have a spine but you have a decent brain, so that’s good. That must be how you managed this trivia, since I don’t think you used your ability to change colour to match your surroundings. I mean…maybe you just re-coded your DNA, since apparently you can do that. I really have no idea. Well done, I suppose.

Squid

You must have many talents, because you’re an otter! Not only did you achieve a respectable score at these random trivia questions, but you also know how to play basketball, stack cups, use a vending machine and open clams using rocks! You also have an otter cousin at the Seattle aquarium who knows how to use an inhaler, which is cool. Bonus: You’re insanely fun and like to give hugs and float in the water whenever you’re not doing trivia! Good job!

Otter

Wow! You’re a large grey fishmammal with a big brain! Your ratio of brain to body size is beaten only by humans, and your ability to recognize yourself in a mirror means that you are self-aware (so you’re basically ocean Socrates). Your trivia ability is practically perfect- perhaps your social nature just interfered with a couple key questions. Or maybe you were just busy using your echolocation. Who knows and who cares? Dolphins are cool.

Dolphin

Congratulations! Your DNA is 99% identical to that of any human and you’ve got the trivia skills to prove it! Due to your ability to make and use tools and to learn sign language you’re widely considered to be the “smartest” member of the animal kingdom (or at least the best at trivia!) You’re also hairy and spend a lot of time grooming your peers, but don’t worry- it’s your brain that matters!
