Very hard indeed.

I typed in Everglades for Florida, could that be counted as a type-in? Both animals coexist there, and almost nowhere else in Florida.

I guess so. I would be a bit more general, but that will work now.

Tough quiz. I've two observations. Firstly there are no quadripoints in the World (other than those separating subdivisions of countries). The one you refer to misses by about 800 metres or so as there is a border of that length between Botswana and Zambia. Therefore, Zimbabwe and Namibia do not quite meet. Secondly, isn't the answer to the final question "name"!? The name of a place is the name in its own language - a special word for that is not needed. All other names are faintly pointless obfuscations in my view.

I went off by what Google, Britannica, and Wikipedia said. Yes, you are right about such problem, but I went off by those sources, which is my weak argument.

Secondly, a "name" is a bit too broad. The reason why I disagree is because of adjectives. For example, Deutschland is the German "name" for Germany; Alemania is the Spanish "name" for Germany. To be more specific, the German name is the native name, therefore it is called an "endonym." The Spanish name is NOT native, but it is the word in which they use to refer to the place, therefore it is called an "exonym."
