Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What is a baby skunk called?

Answer: kitten

Skunks are not aggressive animals. They have sharp teeth, but rarely use them. Spraying the smelly chemical is a better defense mechanism for them. They usually will give a warning before using the spray.
2. What is a baby manatee called?

Answer: calf

Manatees are one of my favorite aquatic animals. I once snorkeled with them at Crystal River in Florida. They are gentle, slow moving, and non-aggressive. They are related to elephants.
3. What is a baby alligator called?

Answer: hatchling

Female alligators lay their eggs in a big pile of decaying vegetation. When baby alligators are hatched, they call to their mother with high pitched sounds. The female is very protective of her babies.
4. A male wombat is called a jack, and a female is a jill. What is the baby called?

Answer: joey

Wombats are related to koalas, and their babies are also called joeys. Wombats live in Australia.
5. What is a sterile female wasp called?

Answer: worker

Wasps, unlike bees, are considered a nuisance in the garden. Be very careful when removing their nests since they are very protective of their colony. Only female wasps can sting. The sting is very painful, and in some cases, life threatening. A drone is a male wasp and a queen is the head-female wasp.

Many of the worker wasps in a colony are sterile females, the fertile female being a queen.
6. Which of the following males is NOT called a bull?

Answer: kangaroo

Whale, seal and giraffe males are called bulls. Kangaroo males are called either bucks or boomers, and they do not have pouches. Kangaroos live in Australia and New Guinea, but can be seen in zoos around the world.
7. Which of the following have the same name as a female pig?

Answer: bear

Female bears and pigs are called sows. Both can be found throughout the world, but they are not related.
8. Which of these has a unique breeding habit?

Answer: Surinam toad

After the eggs are fertilized, the male presses the eggs into the female's back. The skin grows around the eggs keeping them safe. When the babies are hatched, they are already tiny frogs.
9. What is a female donkey called?

Answer: Jenny

Donkeys are related to horses but their ears are much longer. You can put a saddle and harness on a donkey as you would a horse and ride it. A male donkey is called a jack or jackass, and a baby is a colt or a foal.
10. How do female scorpions care for the babies after they are born?

Answer: carry them

Female scorpions carry the babies on their backs. They will leave her back when they are old enough to care for themselves. This is usually after a couple of weeks.
