There once was an old lady who played Animalia Fake!______________________Kingdom: Animalia - A Zoology Podcast for Kids is back with its game show, Animalia Fake! Every episode—with your host, Devon, and announcers, Chet and Cap—there are THREE rounds, each with FOUR outrageous animal facts; ONE of those facts is so outrageous it’s an Animalia Fake (it’s not true), and you have to guess which it is!What’s that buzzing? Aah! Shoo! Why are there so many flies? I guess it’s because this episode’s category is insects. Insects make up the majority of all species (that’s all life on Earth, not just animals!), and they’re found on every continent. So can you figure out which facts about them aren’t true? Play along and find out!
