BRAIN TRIVIA

Logic Puzzle: Four Arctic animals are in a snowy talent show. Each animal has a different snack and talent. ❄️

  • Animals: Snowy owl, Walrus, Arctic fox, Polar bear

  • Snacks: Lemmings, Clams, Berries, Fish

  • Talents: Singing, Juggling, Ice skating, Snow sculpting

Find out which animal goes with which snack and which talent.

Clues:

  1. The walrus loves clams.

  2. The snowy owl doesn’t juggle or ice skate.

  3. The polar bear doesn’t eat berries or lemmings.

  4. The snow sculptor eats fish.

  5. The arctic fox isn’t the juggler.

  6. The singer doesn’t eat berries.

Hint:

Start with the snacks. Once you know who eats fish, clue 4 tells you who the snow sculptor is!

Solution:

Snack

Talent

Snowy owl

Lemmings

(The walrus eats clams and the polar bear eats fish, so the owl eats berries or lemmings. The owl is the singer, and clue 6 says the singer doesn’t eat berries.)

Singing

(Clue 2 says the owl doesn’t juggle or skate. The polar bear is the snow sculptor, so the owl must sing.)

Walrus

Clams

(Clue 1)

Juggling

(The owl sings, the polar bear sculpts, and clue 5 says the fox doesn’t juggle, so the walrus is the juggler.)

Arctic fox

Berries

(Process of elimination)

Ice skating

(Clue 5)

Polar bear

Fish

(Clue 3 says the polar bear doesn’t eat berries or lemmings, and Clue 1 says the walrus eats the clams)

Snow sculpting

(Clue 4)

Fun fact: These are what these animals really eat! Snowy owls are lemming-hunting pros, walruses eat clams off the seafloor, polar bears eat fish (though seals are their favorite), and arctic foxes eat berries in the summer. 🦉
