Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. The animal represented in the photograph is a relative of the horse that can be found primarily in the savannas of Africa. The pattern of each individual animal's stripes is as unique as the pattern of each human being's fingerprints. What animal is this?

Answer: a zebra

Many scientists believe that the zebra's stripes developed as a means of camouflage, giving it a means of blending in with its environment so that predators found it difficult to see the zebra clearly. There are three species of zebra: the plains zebra (which is the most populous and most observed), the mountain zebra, and the Grevy's zebra.

The plains zebra can be found mostly in the northern countries of Africa from Sudan to Zimbabwe while the Grevy's zebra is mostly found in Kenya. Mountain zebras, which prefer the sloped environments of mountains, can be found in the southwestern countries of Africa, such as Angola, Namibia, and South Africa.

The Grevy's zebra and the mountain zebra are endangered species. Zebras have never been domesticated as horses and donkeys have been.
2. The animal shown in the photograph represents a kind of bird found in tropical and subtropical regions all over the planet earth. What kind of very intelligent bird is this, seen often in zoos and even in some people's homes as pets?

Answer: a parrot

The specific parrot depicted in the photograph is a blue-fronted Amazon or blue-fronted parrot. Obviously, from its name, one can tell that this bird is found in South America, primarily in Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay, and Boilivia. The blue-fronted Amazon is one of the most popular parrots kept as pets.

It is called the blue-fronted Amazon because its face is marked with turquoise feathers above its hooked beak and between its eyes.
3. Different species of the animal in the photograph can be found in Asia and Africa, and it is easily recognized because of the long appendage it has for a nose, which it uses for breathing, smelling, making noise, touching, grasping, and spraying water. What is this animal?

Answer: an elephant

There are two primary species of elephants: the Asian elephant and the African elephant. However, some scientists believe the African elephant may actually be two separate species: the bush elephant and the forest elephant. The Asian and African species are recognizably different because of their sizes and the shapes of their heads and ears.

The elephant's trunk is truly a remarkable feature. The trunk is strong enough to lift up to 350 kg or 770 lbs, yet the elephant can control the trunk's 150,000 muscle fibers to pick something out of its eye or crush a peanut shell without crushing the peanut inside.
4. The animals in the photograph are a kind of animal that has been domesticated for at least 10,000 years. Some use them for their meat, their milk, and their hair, and some keep them as pets. What is this relative of the sheep?

Answer: a goat

There are over 300 species of domesticated goats, but they are all descendants of wild goats from areas of Asia and Europe. Early human beings used goat manure for fuel, goat bones for tools, and goat skins for clothing. As is the case with many domesticated animals, the parents and offspring have specific names. Males are referred to as billies or bucks, females are referred to as nannies or does, and offspring are referred to as kids.

A male goat that has been castrated is referred to as a wether.
5. The animal hiding in the foliage in the photograph is a popular pet found all over the world, usually in people's houses. This particular one has the markings of a tabby. Which animal is this?

Answer: a cat

Cats were thought to have been domesticated in ancient Egypt, where they were considered sacred, around four thousand years ago. However, recent evidence suggests that the cat may have been domesticated as long as 9,500 years ago. A grave found on the island of Cyprus has the remains of both a human and a cat buried together. Now, some believe the cat may have been domesticated in the Middle East and then brought to Cyprus and Egypt. Other evidence points to a divergence of cats that were domesticated in China around 5,300 years ago when wild cats were drawn to the mice that were attracted to the recent practice of the storage of large amounts of grain.

A tabby cat is a cat with primarily two colors in a striped, lined, or spotted pattern. A calico cat usually has three colors, one being a white background and the other two colors marking various large splotches or patches.
6. Many of these animals represented by the one in the picture rely on echolocation to determine size, distance, and velocity of objects before them. What animal would this be?

Answer: a bat

Some species of bats emit high-pitched sounds that bounce off objects ahead of them and then return to the bats. From these echoed sound waves, these bats can determine not only size, distance, and velocity but even textures in some cases. This is how a bat hunts for food or avoids potential threats. Bats are also the only mammals that truly fly; all others, like flying squirrels, do not fly but make short glides. Their "wings" consist of their extremely long fingers and a web of skin between them.

The particular bat being held in the photograph is a Mexican free-tailed bat. It is one of the most abundant mammals in North America.
7. The animal in the photograph can grow as long as three meters or ten feet and can weigh as much as 70 kg or 150 lbs, measurements that make it the largest of its family of reptiles. What is this creature with a venomous bite?

Answer: a Komodo dragon

The Komodo dragon or Komodo monitor is the world's largest living lizard and is found on the Indonesian islands of Komodo, Flores, Gili Motang, Padar, and Rinca. The Komodo dragon can run at speeds of up to 20 km/h or 12 mph, can climb trees, and hunts its prey, which is primarily deer.

It has also occasionally attacked humans. As a result of recent studies, scientists have determined that the Komodo dragon's bite contains a venom that lowers its prey's blood pressure, prevents blood clotting, and causes swelling and pain.
8. There are many different families of this kind of fish whose tail is visible in the photograph, but they are all easily recognizable. Most have slippery, scaleless skin and barbels that resemble whiskers extending from their faces. What kind of a fish is this?

Answer: a catfish

Catfish are a very prevalent fish found on every continent in the world except Antarctica although the majority of them live in the Americas. They are typically fished and even farmed for a source of food for human beings. There are many, many species of the fish. The largest, the Mekong Giant Catfish, can reportedly grow up to three meters or 9.8 feet in length and 350 kg or 770 lbs in weight. One of the smallest is the candiru of the Amazon basin; it is a parisitic fish that attaches itself to the gills of other fish to feed on their blood. Some of the catfish species have "stings" behind their gills, some of which are venomous.

The tail of the catfish in the photograph has red, bloody spots because of parasites that are beneath its skin.
9. The tails of these particular crustaceans, like the one pictured, are often eaten; some people will even pay a great amount of money for these tails. Of course, the chef must first break through this animal's tough exoskeleton. What kind of animal is this?

Answer: a lobster

Lobsters have ten legs, more than insects or arachnids, and the front three all have claws. Because the very front ones are so large, most viewers fail to notice the other claws. Lobsters can also, remarkably, live up to seventy years of age. However, lobsters are vulnerable at different stages of their lives because they must molt, meaning they must shed their outer skeleton and regrow another in order to increase in size. Lobster meat can be a very expensive commodity; some are willing to pay over $100 for a lobster.
10. These furry creatures, like the one in the photograph, can be seen in the trees and yards surrounding many people's homes. Some love to watch their playfulness and ingenuity; some find them to be pests. What kind of animal is this with a long bushy tail?

Answer: a squirrel

Squirrels are of the rodent order, and they are unique because they are one of the few mammals that can descend from an object (such as a tree) headfirst. They accomplish this feat by rotating their ankles so that their paws are facing backwards (try turning your OWN feet completely backwards).

This technique allows them to grasp from an upward position the object they are descending while they are facing downwards.
