  2. I missed two. I picked the wrong penguin and the wrong reptile, both of which I wavered between my choice and the correct answer. You should always go with your first thought.

  3. 5/10. I did of course get the Australian ones correct. Oh, the internal shame if I hadn't.

  4. Missed the "dragon" and the fox. Easy points for me for the monotremes.

  5. 8/10; I missed aardvark and picked the wrong penguin.

  6. I'd never come across the name "aardvark" before but guessed it must be that because none of the others was right. With #4, I wasn't sure whether it's a kestrel or eagle.
    Got the others right, though. If only komodo dragons could remain as cute as they are when they are babies!

  9. As a Scottish Dunderhead I did not even attempt the Quiz.
    Your photos enlivened my dull mind. Shetland Pony & Baby Cheetah !

    Did you have to spoil my day with the Komodo Dragon ?
    These evil sons of bitches eat their prey alive ! They eat humans too.

    Paul McClean, a young Financial Times journalist, was seized by a crocodile.
    He was washing his hands in a lake in Sri Lanka when he was snatched.
    Many African women are taken this way when washing clothes.

  10. I didn't even guess on the penguins (but I knew they were penguins, although "hedge sparrows" gave me a laugh), and I missed the bald eagle. I guessed kestrel. But I got the rest!

  11. 9/10. That's pretty unusual for me.

  12. 9/10 - dang! I could've sworn those were hedge sparrows...

  13. I never even heard of many of these animal names... The only ones I felt sure about were the Shetland pony and the Yorkshire terrier!

  14. I got them all! I'm home now from my little jaunt and have resumed daily blogging.
