A survey of 1,000 parents and children reveals kids know more about animals than their parents. Seventy-seven percent of adults admit being stumped by their children’s animal questions, while 82% turn to the internet for answers. Children learn animal facts primarily at school (73%), TV (65%), and books (62%), while 59% learn from parents and 16% from TikTok. Nearly all children (98%) like animals, with 71% drawn to their cuteness. Forty-five percent of parents acknowledge their animal knowledge is inferior to their children’s. Despite often not knowing the answers to their children’s questions, 45% of parents said animals are often a talking point between them and their children. Many kids have a good understanding of how to care for animals, as 83% knew it was important they should have enough food and water and 75% that they have a safe and comfortable place to rest.
