Answer: Brush

These tiny bunnies sometimes have burrows.

The Eclectus, from New Guinea, is an unusual bird because the females are more brightly colored than the males. The males are primarily green.

Answer: Mask

The cacomistle and raccoon are both in the raccoon family (Procyonidae.) The cacomistle is found in the western US and South America.

4. What is the only ocean in which the bowhead whale is found?

Both are members of the genus Cissus, part of the grape family.

"The Fox and the Grapes" is the most famous fox fable by Aesop.
