Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Your grandmother might scream if she found this baby animal, known as a nymph, in her kitchen. What will this nymph grow up to be?

Answer: Cockroach

Not everybody will think that this baby is cute. Called a nymph, it will grow up to be that wonderful animal known as a cockroach. No matter what you might think of the cockroach, remember that it has been around, practically unchanged, since the days of the dinosaurs.
2. Simply put, what do you call the babies of whales?

Answer: Calves

All whale babies are known as calves. Some of them are the largest babies ever born on the planet. Baby whales are very dependent upon on their mothers for over a year.
3. What is the name for a baby deer? (Think of Bambi.)

Answer: Fawn

Any baby deer, especially one that has retained the distinctive spotted baby coat, are called fawns. Fawns spend a large part of their day in hiding while the mother is out feeding. Most fawns are able to stand by themselves and nurse within half an hour of birth.
4. What is the term used for any type of baby bear?

Answer: Cub

Baby bears of all kinds are called cubs. Cubs usually stay with their mothers for 1-2 years, at which time they learn the life skills they will need. When the mother decides to mate again, the cubs are sent off on their own.
5. The babies of what kind of animal, other than human beings, are referred to as kids?

Answer: Goats

Baby goats are referred to as kids, just like you. They come in many different colors and are known for being very playful. Father goats are called billy goats while mother goats are referred to as nanny goats.
6. Sometimes called a tadpole or a pollywog, what will this tiny animal grow up to be?

Answer: Frog

The tadpole/pollywog is the larval form of a frog or a toad. Because it is an amphibian, the tadpole goes through a growth cycle called metamorphosis. This means that it starts out with no limbs and progressively changes by growing arms and legs, while losing its tail.
7. This cute little face belongs to a baby mule, which is known by which of the following words?

Answer: Foal

All equine babies, such as horses, mules, donkeys and zebras are known as foals. Male foals are referred to as colts, while female foals are referred to as fillies.
8. What is the term for a baby sheep?

Answer: Lamb

The babies of sheep are known as lambs until they get teeth or celebrate their first birthday. Known for their gentle sweetness, the term has come to refer to anyone with these same traits.
9. Which one of these male names is used as a name for many different types of marsupial babies?

Answer: Joey

The babies of kangaroos, as well as many other types of marsupials, are known as joeys. These babies live almost all of their infancy inside their mother's pouch, where they are able to nurse and remain safe.
10. The adorable baby in this photo is known as a cria, and will grow up to be which of these animals as an adult?

Answer: Alpaca

When a mother alpaca is about to give birth, her whole herd will gather around in a protective circle. The resulting baby is known as a cria. These cute babies will nurse for around six months before starting a herbivorous diet.
