Answer this Oklahoma trivia question to receive awesome prizes!

Test your Oklahoma knowledge and win prizes by answering our weekly Tuesday Trivia question. Every week, we’ll choose a winner from the correct respondents to receive a prize. This week's special prize is two tickets to the Oklahoma City Zoo's Ostrich Egg Breakfast on May 8, 2021!

It's no secret that the staff of Oklahoma Today is wild for the Oklahoma City Zoo and Botanical Garden. Not only are they great stewards of fascinating animals from around the globe, but the OKC Zoo puts on some of the most entertaining events in the state. The annual Ostrich Egg Breakfast (returning after last year's COVID-19 hiatus) is a personal favorite. Here are a few fun ostrich facts:

  • Ostriches are the world's largest birds and lay the largest eggs of any animal.
  • They're not much for flying, but they sure can run. Thanks to long, powerful legs, ostriches can get up to about 40 miles per hour.
  • We're not saying anything about their intelligence, but ostrich eyeballs are larger than their brains!

If you're eager to learn more about ostriches, you can find a few to study at the Oklahoma City Zoo. For a pair of tickets to the Ostrich Egg Breakfast on May 8, how many ostriches live at the OKC Zoo?
