The game plays one animal sound at a time. Press play, listen, and type the name of the animal that makes the sound. Every correct answer adds one to your streak — and one wrong answer ends the run.
The pool holds around 100 animals with sounds most people can recognise: a lion's roar, a wolf's howl, a kookaburra's laugh, a rattlesnake's rattle. A perfect run is a streak of 30.
How to play
Press the play button to hear the sound. You can replay it as many times as you want.
Type the animal's name in the answer bar.
Select the animal from the list. The list shows only animals in the quiz, so a spelling mistake is never a wrong answer.
A correct answer shows the animal's name and deals the next sound. Your streak climbs by one.
One wrong answer ends the run. Your score is the streak you reached.
Reach a streak of 30 to complete a perfect run.
What counts in this quiz
Around 100 animals, each with one recognisable recording.
Common English names and well-known alternate names count.
Every clip is a freely-licensed recording from Wikimedia Commons, credited on the card as you play.
What's not included — and why
Animals without a well-known sound do not appear — no silent giraffes, no interchangeable songbirds.
An animal appears at most once per run.
Good to know
A lion's roar carries up to 8 kilometres — the loudest call of any big cat.
The "laugh" of a kookaburra is a territorial call, not a reaction to anything funny.
A rattlesnake's rattle is made of loosely interlocking keratin segments — a new one is added at every shed.
