'Faking My Death Was The Test And You All Passed', Duolingo's Green Pesky Owl Returns From The Dead
Duolingo returned on X on Monday and wrote, "Y’all really think I’d let a Cybertruck take me out? #duolingohasrisen."

Duolingo's brand mascot, the polarising green owl, Duo, recently met an unexpected and mysterious demise, or that's what the viral campaign suggested. Renowned artists like Dua Lipa were also roped in as she mourned Duo's death. Now, the green pesky owl is back from the dead. Duolingo's official X profile earlier said that it was taken out by a Tesla Cybertruck.
The owl returned on Monday and posted, "Y’all really think I’d let a Cybertruck take me out? #duolingohasrisen."
