Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Badger

Answer: Cub

A baby badger is referred to as a cub, a term also used for baby bears, tigers, lions, aardvarks, hyenas, raccoons, walruses, and woodchucks. Badgers belong to the family Mustelidae, which also includes weasels, wolverines, and otters. Eleven species of badgers are found throughout the world, on all continents except South America, Antarctica, and Australia.
2. Reindeer

Answer: Calf

A baby reindeer is called a calf though other deer-like animals may have fawns for their young. In North American, the reindeer is known as the caribou. For the most part, reindeer are found in areas of Russia, the United States, Canada, Greenland, Norway, Finland, and Iceland. And the North Pole of course.
3. Eel

Answer: Elver

An eel is an elongated fish that can resemble a snake; a baby eel is an elver. Many eels live in the seas, but some are freshwater breeds that must make arduous journeys upstream.
4. Elephant

Answer: Calf

An elephant's gestation period is about two years, and, according to elephant specialists, when the calf is born, it is the center of attention in the herd. If a predator approaches, the herd will circle around the calf to protect it. Other animals that have calves as their young include the addax, antelope, beluga, camel, cow, dolphin, giraffe, and many others.
5. Fish

Answer: Fry

Though parts of the United States a "fish fry" refers to a seafood meal such as fish and chips, a fry is simply a juvenile fish. Fish start as eggs and then hatch into the larval stage before becoming official fries.
6. Goat

Answer: Kid

A goat is a member of the Bovidae family, and its young are referred to as kids. If you'd like to be more specific, female goats are "nannies," males that have not been fixed are called "bucks" or "billies," and fixed males are "wethers."
7. Hare

Answer: Leveret

Hares and rabbits are often confused, but they are different species. Baby rabbits are kits, and baby hares are leverets. Hares are generally bigger all around, with longer hind legs and longer, floppier ears. Rabbits live with other rabbits, while hares are more solitary. A group of rabbits is a warren, a nest, or a colony, while a group of hares is a drove.
8. Wallaby

Answer: Joey

A wallaby is a macropod -- think bouncing marsupial -- and its baby is a joey. Wallabies live in Australia and in parts of New Guinea. Some wallabies have broken free of zoos and established feral groups in places as varied as Hawaii and the Isle of Man.
9. Jellyfish

Answer: Ephyrae

A jellyfish isn't actually a fish but a soft-bodied aquatic animal with a mushroom-like shape on one end and tentacles on the other. The stage they're in before they become adults is ephyrae, which is pronounced "eff-fire-ree."
10. Swan

Answer: Cygnet

A cygnet is a baby swan, which is in the family Anatidae along with ducks and geese. Swans generally mate for life and can be very territorial over their young.
