2. Which animal was most commonly worshipped in ancient Egypt?

5. Are Cuban Tree Frogs the largest species of tree frogs in North America?

6. Approximately how far away can you be and still hear a lion's roar?

Of course, this will depend. Things such as humidity and ground obstructions (mountains, hills, trees, etc.) will make this number vary, but on a flat stretch of land on a clear day, 5 miles would be about correct.
