Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What is this large, plant eating, aquatic mammal sometimes known as a sea cow?

Answer: Manatee

The manatee lives in the shallow water of the Everglades where they subsist on the sea grass that grows there. Despite their small eyes and lack of outer ears, manatees are thought to see and hear quite well.
2. Which of these birds is the name this beautiful bird of the Everglades shown in the photo?

Answer: Roseate spoonbill

This lovely bird is a roseate spoonbill. They are pink because of the shrimp and other crustaceans that make up their diet.
3. The Lagoon frog is known by which porcine name?

Answer: Pig frog

The pig frog is a smaller frog that feeds on crayfish, insects, fish, and other frogs. They are an aquatic species which live all over the Everglades.
4. Which large feline is found in the Everglades?

Answer: Florida Panther

Florida panthers are strictly carnivores and eat only meat. About 90 percent of their diet is feral hog, white-tailed deer, raccoon, and armadillo. These wild cats are very endangered because of habitat destruction and fragmentation.
5. What does the great egret feed upon?

Answer: Fish and small animals

The great egret is a large white heron that has yellow eyes, and black legs and feet. It feeds on fish, frogs, rats and birds. Males are slightly larger than females.
6. Bartram's scrub-hairstreak is a butterfly that can be seen in the Everglades.

Answer: True

Bartram's scrub-hairstreak is found only in south Florida. This butterfly
doesn't wander far from its host plant, the pineland croton; in fact, the butterfly is usually spotted no farther than 17 feet away from it.
7. Which of these animals is considered to be an apex predator in the Everglades?

Answer: American alligator

The American alligator is the top predator in the Everglades. They eat larger animals such as turtles, snakes, and deer. It is illegal to feed or provoke alligators as well as all other wildlife in the Everglades.
8. Which of these usually ocean-dwelling animals is often seen in the Everglades?

Answer: Bottlenose dolphins

The Atlantic bottlenose dolphin is commonly found in the estuarine and marine habitats of the Everglades. They eat fish and small crustaceans. They live in small groups of five to fifteen.
9. Which endangered turtle is found in the Everglades?

Answer: Atlantic Hawksbill

The Hawksbill is found in the Everglades. It can live in saltwater or freshwater. They live on small fish and algae.
10. The grizzly bear is found in the Everglades.

Answer: False

The bear that is found in the Everglades is the black bear (as shown in the picture) not the grizzly bear. The black bear is an omnivore and eats berries, small animals, and nuts. Florida black bears seek solace here because it's a protected wilderness where it is devoid of most human interference.
