#Microblog Monday 592: Metazooa

Not sure what #MicroblogMondays is? Read the inaugural post which explains the idea and how you can participate too.

I can’t believe I haven’t yet written about Metazooa, but it’s one of my favourite evening games. You guess an animal (I always start with a guinea pig), and then it tells you the taxonomic rank to get you closer and closer to the animal of the day.

I was terrible at first, but you start to remember which animals are classified together and start making educated guesses over which two birds would have more in common than other birds, for example.

Enjoy.

Are you also doing #MicroblogMondays? Add your link below. The list will be open until Tuesday morning. Link to the post itself, not your blog URL. (Don’t know what that means? Please read the three rules on this post to understand the difference between a permalink to a post and a blog’s main URL.) Only personal blogs can be added to the list. I will remove any posts connected to businesses or sponsored posts.
