Online broadcast projects from the Moscow Zoo and Active Citizen have released their second joint project quiz A program about animals you can watch live on mos.ru. It's dedicated to Pallas's cats—the world's most secretive cats and legendary residents of the Moscow Zoo.
The quiz consists of eight questions in which you must choose the correct answer from five options. It is available to everyone on the page with online broadcasts from the outdoor enclosure of the Pallas's cat at the Moscow Zoo, as well as website and in mobile application The Active Citizen project. Thanks to the quiz, anyone can test their knowledge of the daily show's furry hero and perhaps learn something new about wild cats—for example, about their natural behavior or the origin of their name.
The Pallas's cat, or manul, is a special animal for the zoo, which is under the jurisdiction of the capital Department of CultureOne reason is that the Moscow Zoo pioneered the regular breeding of Pallas's cats in captivity. Since 1975, the institution has bred over 140 Pallas's cats. Many of them have been relocated to zoos around the world.
In addition to the male Pallas's cat living in the city, the Moscow Zoo cares for several more individuals at the Rare Species Reproduction Center in the Volokolamsk District.
In the lead-up to winter, before the snowpack sets in, observing the Pallas's cat is especially fascinating. It becomes fluffier than usual, actively wanders around the enclosure in search of prey, gains weight, almost doubling, and seems to strive to achieve its ideal shape—a ball. Participants in the quiz will answer questions about this important period for the Pallas's cat, as well as test their knowledge of certain Pallas's cat traits.
Watching online broadcasts will help you choose the correct answers. It's also helpful to read facts about the animal on the same page, on the official website, and on the Moscow Zoo's social media pages.
