Wanted to type "Ukraine", but got a whammy after "UK".

While I didn’t get a whammy while typing Nigeria for the gorilla question.

Resplendant Quetzal can be found in El Salvador

I saw my first capybara in Hamburg Germany on a river side

how it isn't on the list :((

Not native to the country. Otherwise species such as tigers would be everywhere because of zoos.

Seems infinitely more likely that you saw a beaver, nutria, or muskrat instead.

I thought penguins were in Madagascar too, aren't they?

That's just a myth spread by the movies :D

Damn the US! Home to none of the big cats but use all their names for Mac OS versions.

16/18, only knew quetzal because it's on Guatemala's flag.

Hmm... there are pinguins in Groenland I am pretty sure of that.

Consequently Denmark should work as a response

Sorry but no. All penguin species are confined to the southern hemisphere, so none in Greenland. Similarly Polar Bears are found only in the Arctic so a Polar Bear will never have the chance to snack on a penguin.

"Penguin" means different things in different languages. It can be deceiving.

In french for example, pingouins are a small arctic bird, while manchots empereurs, called "penguins" in english, are the big antarctic ones.

There’s something wrong with the gorilla one. Every time I type in Central African Republic for that one it doesn’t accept it. But I guarantee you they’re found there as I went and saw them in the wild at Dzanga Sangha reserve in Central African Republic.

Both you and the quiz should really name a source for the animal ranges. Wikpedia isn't a bad place to start, and reading superficially, it seems to me like you're correct.

So glad I was reading about sturgeon populations in Georgia yesterday
