LA.lv launches new animal facts vs myths trivia quiz
Latvian news portal LA.lv has published a ten-question quiz letting readers test how well they can distinguish real animal facts from popular myths. The quiz was created by Annika Niedrīte.

The Latvian news portal LA.lv, run by Latvijas Avīze, has introduced a new trivia quiz aimed at testing readers' knowledge of the animal kingdom. The quiz consists of ten questions designed to reveal how well people can tell scientifically accurate facts about animals apart from widely believed myths that have persisted across generations.

First question tackles cats and the Bible
As an example of the quiz's content, the first of the ten questions addresses the claim that the cat is the only domestic animal not mentioned in the Bible. Readers are given three possible answers: that the claim is false because cats are in fact mentioned in the Bible multiple times; that the claim is true because the domestic cat is indeed absent from the Bible; or that cats are mentioned only in the New Testament.
Such quizzes form part of the lighter, entertainment-oriented content that LA.lv offers its audience, giving readers a chance to have fun while also testing and expanding their general knowledge. The animal world is frequently cited as an area where popular culture has spread numerous misconceptions, ranging from animal behavior to biological traits, which is why quizzes of this kind can help readers gauge how accurate their assumptions really are.
The full quiz, including all ten questions and their answers, is available on the LA.lv portal, where readers can test their knowledge and discover how many commonly held beliefs about animals actually turn out to be myths.
