The fauna of Siberia is diverse, rich, and mysterious. I am a resident of this territory, so I am interested in what secrets Mother Nature keeps, everything that happens around me. There is a huge amount of literature to gain information about the animal world. Nature is full of mysteries; it keeps many secrets within itself. The animals themselves are interesting and mysterious. There are many mysteries around them. They help to learn more about their lives.

There are different collections of riddles, but I have never come across a generalized collection of riddles about the animals of Siberia. I had an idea - to create such a collection.

For this collection of riddles to be interesting and educational, it is necessary to make it bright and fill it with content. I propose to include brief information about representatives of the animal world and illustrations. This collection may be updated. It may include riddles written by the children themselves. This collection of riddles can be used on such subjects as: the world around us, literature of the Krasnoyarsk region, nature and ecology of the Krasnoyarsk region, and can be useful for the development of children’s mental activity and their creativity.
