Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What star of the Animal Planet channel had various shows, scads of merchandise, and a movie based on his own show?

Answer: Steve Irwin

He's none other than the "Croc Hunter" himself. I'm a fan of him and his show. Some think he's crazy but I think he knows what he's doing since he's had years of experience working with animals. His shows include "Croc Files," "The Crocodile Hunter," and "The Croc Hunter Diaries." Unfortunately Steve died a few years ago from a stingray accident.
2. This biologist has his own show, has been on "Entertainment Weekly"'s "It List" and named one of "People Magazine"'s "Most Beautiful People." Who is he?

Answer: Jeff Corwin

He's the really cute, funny, and interesting personality of the nature world. His show is called "The Jeff Corwin Experience." He's been to several places around the world, including Madagascar, India, Alaska, etc. He used to have a show a few years back on the Disney Channel called "Going Wild with Jeff Corwin."
3. Sonja Fitzpatrick is somewhat of a real-life Dr. Doolittle, talking to animals who are either troubled or just want to chat. What is the name of her show?

Answer: The Pet Psychic

I don't know how she does it. In fact, I don't know if she's for real or not.

"The Animal Police," "Inside the S.P.C.A," and "Animal Cruelty 911" are made up. The show, "Animal Precinct," is a reality series that is the animal equivalent of "Cops." Officers employed by the A.S.P.C.A drive around the streets of New York investigating cases of animal cruelty.

Unfortunately, the matriarch of the family, Flower, was killed.
6. The funny or sometimes unfunny show featuring animals doing stupid, funny, or cute things is featured on Animal Planet. Name the show.

Answer: "The Planet's Funniest Animals"

This is an animal version of "America's Funniest Home Videos" without the $10,000 prize. Instead, a prize of $100 and a t-shirt is awarded to everyone whose video is featured on television. The host, Matt Gallant, is a cute guy with a sense of humor :)
7. They're the animal doctors who come to the rescue of the sick and injured in the animal kingdom. What is the name of this show?

The show features the lives, personalities, and quirks of several vets working at Alameda East, a veterinary hospital in Colorado. One of them, Kevin Fitzgerald, is not only a vet but he's a stand-up comedian as well.
8. They're the pets of the rich and famous. This show, sans Robin Leech, features the animal friends of actors, singers, etc. What is this show called?

Answer: Hollywood Unleashed

Edie Falco, k.d. lang, and Frankie Muniz (just to name a few) have been on the show with their pets.

Answer: Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom

"Gentle Ben" was a TV show some years ago (aired between 1967 and '69) about a friendship between a boy and a bear. The Animal Planet featured a remake of the show in a made-for-TV movie. The "National Geographic" shows are sometimes shown on various TV channels (i.e. PBS) but not on Animal Planet. "Mutual of Omaha" is now on the Animal Planet, showcasing what else? Animals, of course.
11. This program showcases a top ten list of the weirdest, most dangerous, and most fascinating animals ever. What is the name of this show?

Answer: "The Most Extreme"

Topics from the show include extreme jumpers, the strongest animals, etc. The show compares the biology of these interesting and magnificent animals to that of humans.
12. This program features a story about animals and their babies. What is the name of the show?

Answer: "That's My Baby"

The show often features a pet owner and the pregnant pet, either a domestic housepet, an animal at the zoo, or a domestic farm animal. The pregnancy of the pet is tracked along with a follow up of the animal and her baby.
13. This program showcases the life of a pet owner and the pet with interesting facts and details about the particular animal. What is it?

Answer: "A Pet's Story"

The most unusual (and interesting) was the story of a couple who raised llamas and even brought one to a senior rest home as therapy for those who lived there.
14. Tired of working like a dog? Sit back, relax, and watch this program about dogs who work, from morning to evening. What is this show?

Answer: "K-9 to 5"

It even has a catchy, but corny theme song. The show is about dogs in the workplace. Some work as guide dogs, others work as dogs who sniff out drugs, bombs, and even bullets from guns.
15. Interested in buying a dog or want to know more about a specific breed? What is the name of the show?

Answer: "Breed All About It"

The show features owners of specific breeds of dogs and sometimes input from celebrities who own dogs of a specific breed. At the end of each show, there is a synopsis of the breed's qualities, traits, and downsides that are graded by treats (4 treats being the best and 1 treat for being the worst). In other words, if you want a guard dog, a Bichon Frise really won't do the job.
