On the platform “Active Citizen — For Children” An educational quiz about dolphins has appeared. Young Muscovites can test how well they know these animals. Participants will have to answer questions about the life of bottlenose dolphins — one of the most common and intelligent marine mammals, whose subspecies is listed in the Red Book of Russia.
The quiz is adapted for different age categories. For the youngest participants from six to seven years We prepared simple but interesting questions. For example, about what sounds bottlenose dolphins use for communication, what the breathing organ on a dolphin’s head is called, and what is special about their sleep.
Schoolchildren from eight to 10 years they will be invited to answer questions that will help them better understand the anatomy and habits of bottlenose dolphins. The kids will learn how high dolphins can jump, how many teeth they have, and thanks to what ability these animals freely navigate underwater.
Participants from 11 to 13 years old they will have to answer more serious questions: about the diet of the bottlenose dolphins, when a dolphin develops its unique “name,” and what speed the fastest individuals are capable of reaching. In addition, the schoolchildren will become acquainted with other members of the cetacean order.
Children aged six to thirteen inclusive with a “Standard” level account on mos.ru can take the quiz. Correct answers earn children’s points in the city loyalty program. “Million Prize”. They can be used to obtain goods and services from program partners or directed to charity — to funds supporting animals. All options for using points are available in the section “Treasure Shop” children’s version of the program’s website.
You can meet bottlenose dolphins at “Moskvarium” at VDNH. There you can also see a baby Flippy, whose name was chosen last year by the “active citizens.” In the “Moskvarium,” guests can visit the exhibition aquarium, as well as an educational and play space “Capybaraboom”, dedicated to capybaras. Entrance tickets can be purchased using the service “Mosbilet”.
