Penguins of Madagascar Trivia Questions

1. What is the nickname for Mort?

From Quiz The Penguins of Madagascar

Answer: Sad Eyes

Most of the time when Mort encounters the penguins, they call him Sad Eyes because of his large eyes that look as if he is sad.

2. At the very start of the opening we see the clock tower at the zoo. Figures of two animals are striking the bell. What kind of animals are these and how are they making the bell sound out?

From Quiz "The Penguins of Madagascar" Opening Sequence

Answer: Two chimpanzees striking the bell with great hammers

The two chimps are seen whenever the clock tower is shown. They look a great deal like Phil and Mason.

3. What part of Julian does Mort like best?

From Quiz More - Meet "The Penguins of Madagascar"

Answer: His feet

Mort is a little nuts about this. Unfortunately King Julian hates Mort touching his feet. Clearly, this is going to cause trouble between them.

4. Roger the alligator is a very interesting fellow. We meet him in the episode "Haunted Habitat" a very unusual way. Do you remember how?

From Quiz Let's Visit the "The Penguins of Madagascar"

Answer: He is making frightening sounds in the sewer under Marlene's habitat.

Marlene woke the penguins up because of the scary sound she heard. At first, they don't believe her. However, she is their friend and they want to help. Finally, the penguins hear the scary sound too. Marlene and Skipper go down into the sewer to investigate.

5. What is Skipper afraid of?

From Quiz Meet "The Penguins of Madagascar"

Answer: Needles

Skipper is usually incredibly brave, but he will go to great lengths to avoid the doctor's needles.

6. The penguins in the show do not live in Madagascar. They live in a zoo. Which zoo do they live in?

From Quiz Introduction to "The Penguins of Madagascar"

Answer: Central Park Zoo

This is very convenient for the penguins as it gives them the opportunity to have adventures outside the zoo in the park and the city beyond.

7. Who is Skipper talking to when he says, "Suit up men - you too Private."

From Quiz "Penguins of Madagascar": Who said it? Part 2

Answer: Mort

Mort goes through intensive treatment to cure his obsession with King Julien's feet in "Two Feet High and Rising". When Julien's Super Comfy Pamper Time Floaty Throne takes off, it crashes in to the clock and all four penguins and Mort have to rescue him. When Private says that he's the Private, Skipper tells Mort that he can be Private #2. Mort's reply - "I like number two!" There's a joke there, I'm sure of it...

8. This quote from one of the Madagascar Peguins is a catchphrase... and a big clue is that is is from one of the less talkative penguins. The line is "Ka-boom!" Which penguin is most likely to say it?

From Quiz "Penguins of Madagascar": Who Said It? Part 1

Answer: Rico

First heard in "A Christmas Caper" several times, this is Rico's favourite phrase. He thinks it's two words though, as we hear in "What Goes Around" - Skipper asks if there are two sweeter words than "closing time", to which Rico replies "Ka... Boom?"

9. What are the names of the penguins?

From Quiz The Penguins of Madagascar

Answer: Skipper, Kowalski, Rico, Private

Julien, Maurice, Mort are the lemurs (Stevey was the gecko on King Julien's crown). Marlene is the otter, Phil and Mason are the two Chimps, Joey is the Kangaroo seen in a couple of episodes. Do I really need to tell you who John, Paul, George and Ringo are?

10. In the first episode we meet the penguins. How many are there?

From Quiz The Penguins of Madagascar

Answer: 4

The four penguins' names are Skipper, Private, Rico, and Kowalski. The penguins are sort of like secret agents. They do training exercises to improve their techniques. They seem to have something of a rivalry with the lemurs.

11. In the episode, "Otter Gone Wild", who says "The female of the species, any species, who is understanding them?"

From Quiz The Penguins of Madagascar

Answer: King Julien

This is after Marlene gets back to her normal self and King Julien tells her that he has accepted her courtship but Marlene denies that she courted him.

12. Julian considered himself to be king of the Central Park Zoo. Remembering back to the "Madagascar" movie, why might Julian think himself to be a king?

From Quiz "Penguins of Madagascar": King Julian and Mort

Answer: He was actually the king of a tribe lemurs in Madagascar.

When we first see Julian in the movie he is leading his tribe in a swinging disco number.

13. What does Skipper often call Mort?

From Quiz More - Meet "The Penguins of Madagascar"

Answer: Sad Eyes

Compared to his size, Mort's eyes are huge. Skipper also calls him "little lemur."

14. In "Haunted Habitat", what is Roger's big concern?

From Quiz Let's Visit the "The Penguins of Madagascar"

Answer: He thinks he hears a horrible monster.

Roger is a very big animal, at least compared to the penguins or Marlene. However, he has heard a very scary noise coming from above and he thinks it is a monster. He is making his scary noises out of fright.

15. In "Invention Intervention", to test his efforts, Kowalski drives his invention out into Central Park. What happens there?

From Quiz A Visit to "The Penguins of Madagascar"

Answer: Fred the squirrel accidentally fires the invisibility beam.

To test the invention Kowalski makes Fred's tree invisible. Fred falls out of the tree and accidentally causes the invisibility gun to shoot into the city where the beam is reflected back to the machine making it invisible. Actually, Fred takes his tree becoming invisible pretty well. Fred never gets too upset about anything. It is really not his fault he accidentally fired the invisibility beam, after all he is just a squirrel.

16. What does Skipper use to stir his coffee?

From Quiz Meet "The Penguins of Madagascar"

Answer: A fish

He is a penguin. What did you expect him to use? :) Skipper is the leader of the group.

17. Who is the leader of the penguins?

From Quiz Introduction to "The Penguins of Madagascar"

Answer: Skipper

He is a tough but fair commander. He is always coming up with drills and exercises to work his team hard and keep them sharp.

18. Who, in one of the earlier episodes, is heard to scream "Aah! My baby!"?

From Quiz "Penguins of Madagascar": Who said it? Part 2

Answer: Private

In the episode "Paternal Egg-stinct", Marlene the otter finds an egg in her enclosure which she gives to the Penguins to look after. King Julien steals the egg, and drops it in the path of zoo visitors, with this cry from a mortified Private. The egg hatches into a duck, who is seen with his relatives at the end of the episode saying "Cute and cuddly boys, cute and cuddly" - maybe the Penguins had a little bit of influence on him...

19. Which character said "Cool cars go faster. That's a scientific fact."?

From Quiz "Penguins of Madagascar": Who Said It? Part 1

Answer: Kowalski

After being challenged to a race by King Julien in "Little Zoo Coupe" the penguins make some serious modifications to their car, including flame decals, and a lemur ejection seat.

20. What type of animal is King Julien?

From Quiz The Penguins of Madagascar

Answer: Lemur

King Julien is a lemur who is a self-proclamed king. He sometimes makes dumb rules like "you can't touch de feet." (He thinks his feet are perfect.) Maurice and Mort (also lemurs) seem to be his slaves.

21. What is the name of the animal who is often referred to by the Penguins as Moon Cat?

From Quiz The Penguins of Madagascar

Answer: Max

The animal is first introduced to the series in the episode "Launch Time".

22. In "Operation: Neighbor Swap" Julian and his lemur team are making a racket and driving the Penguins nuts. What are they doing?

From Quiz "Penguins of Madagascar": King Julian and Mort

Answer: They are jamming as a punk rock band.

Julian has lead guitar, Maurice bass guitar, and Mort does drums. It might be music, but probably not.

23. What does Maurice use the blender for?

From Quiz More - Meet "The Penguins of Madagascar"

Answer: Making smoothies for Julian

Just one of the many things Maurice has to do to keep Julian happy. It isn't easy keeping Julian happy as he is very finicky and often makes impossible demands on poor Maurice.

24. In "Haunted Habitat", it turned out that Roger did not need to be concerned. Why was that?

From Quiz Let's Visit the "The Penguins of Madagascar"

Answer: The scary sound he heard was not a monster. It was just Marlene snoring.

In trying to convince Marlene that it was her own snoring that was waking her up they had made a recording. Skipper had the tape recorder with him. When he played it back it scared Roger all over again. That is how they figured out Roger's problem and convinced him Marlene was not a monster to fear.

25. Kowalski brings his invisibility device back to the zoo. There things go horribly wrong. What happens?

From Quiz A Visit to "The Penguins of Madagascar"

Answer: King Julian sees Kowalski with his invention and can't help but join the fun. His antics result in the machine going crazy and charging off into the city.

Julian is being his usual annoying self and has to be the center of anything interesting. In a short time after seeing Kowalski he is in Kowalski's lap pounding away an the invisible control panel. This makes the machine go crazy. It charges out into the city, shooting off invisibility beams, zapping things right and left.

26. What does Kowalski use for a calculator?

From Quiz Meet "The Penguins of Madagascar"

Answer: An abacus

We will often see him sliding the disks on the abacus back and forth before announcing his answer. He does amazing calculations such as determining when the next solar eclipse will occur.

27. Who is the brainy penguin?

From Quiz Introduction to "The Penguins of Madagascar"

Answer: Kowalski

He is very smart and is always creating amazing inventions, not all of which work out for the better.

28. This line is one of last lines of an episode - which of the Penguins said "I am randomly pushing buttons while we spin out of control."

From Quiz "Penguins of Madagascar": Who said it? Part 2

Answer: Kowalski

On returning from the Moon (or so they think) in the first episode "Launch Time", Skipper asks for a status report. On his reply, Skipper then asks if he can push one to make him feel better. Despite the danger, Rico is asleep.

29. "How would I be explaining this to my mother? ... You're right. Her problem, not ours." This was a line said by one of the supporting characters in "Penguins of Madagascar". Who said it?

From Quiz "Penguins of Madagascar": Who Said It? Part 1

Answer: King Julien

When the penguins head outside the park for snow cones in "Otter Gone Wild", Marlene goes mad becomes attracted to King Julien. This is a side effect of being out in the wild for the first time. When the penguins return her to the zoo, she has no memory of liking Julien, ever.

30. There is also a new human introduced, the zookeeper. What is her name?

From Quiz The Penguins of Madagascar
