Every year, scientists discover strange new things about the animal world — and 2024 was no exception.

But there’s so much more.
We’ve put together a quiz of some of the weirdest animal news stories of the year to test yourself on. Make sure you login to add your name to the leaderboard, and if you need a hint, tap the yellow button.
