Instructions
Each day a new animal is revealed.
- Click the map — place a pin where you think the animal lives in the wild
- Pick a conservation status — guess its IUCN Red List category
Then hit Submit. The range is revealed and you see your score.
Scoring — 10,000 points total
- Location (5,000 pts): Click inside the range = 5,000. Further away = fewer points.
- Conservation (5,000 pts): Exact match = 5,000. Each IUCN level off costs 1,000 pts.
Conservation status levels

ENEndangered — high risk of extinction
VUVulnerable — high risk if threats continue
NTNear Threatened — close to qualifying
LCLeast Concern — widespread and stable
DDData Deficient — not enough data to assess. Guess DD = 5,000 pts; any other guess = 4,000 pts. (Guessing DD for an assessed species scores a flat 2,500.)
