"The Groundhog (Marmota monax), also known as the Woodchuck, or the Whistlepig (particularly in the Southern United States), is a rodent of the family Sciuridae, belonging to the group of large ground squirrels known as marmots"
Still great quiz
1. Google tells me that Nickelback was formed in 1995 but they didn't come to any kind of prominence until the 2000s so weird that Rolling Stone would pick them for that
2. Why did I think woodchuck meant beaver? I feel dumb
3. That's crazy there's that much oil in Venezuela, I didn't know that. Why haven't they exploited it? Last I heard their economy was horrible
