I understand, it seems to me a name change for remembering the indigenous people. Not that I know that, but it seems like a name like that, or it looks like a name from India too. Denali. But the nickname "McKinley" was not accepted before I commented on that. But the last part of your comment I didn't understand

Please consider rewording the "largest lake" question. While Superior is the largest lake at least partially within the US, Lake Michigan is the largest lake entirely in the US. Perhaps more importantly, Lake Michigan's area is larger than the US portion of Lake Superior - though not by much.

But not all eagles are our national bird, I know golden eagles are in the US but they are not our national bird. But the animal is confusing because the Bison is our national mammal and was not accepted. I also put eagle at first then bison before i realized that bald eagle is our national bird not just eagle.

The national animal is actually the buffalo or bison. Congress passed the National Bison Legacy Act, and President Obama signed it into law, in 2016.
ageekinkuwait

The bison didn't replace the bald eagle. They just extended the bison a symbolic title in addition to the bald eagle in hopes it would help with the conservation efforts.

I like the implication that the bald eagle's title is something other than symbolic. Like it has to show up for work on Monday or something.

Specifically, the act makes the Bison the national *mammal* of the USA. I guess we really needed one? Bison aren't exactly endangered any longer.

What does endangered have to do with it? The bald eagle is not either.

The bald eagle has been the national animal since 1782. No one would consider anything only four years old to be its replacement.
Xenops

Level 69
May 14, 2020
Technically the bald eagle is the national bird and the American Bison is the national animal. I got it right because I realize the eagle is more commonly known but it might help to clarify the question?

Not really, if you consider all the non-Americans taking the quiz. Do you know the names of the national anthems of, say, Italy, Spain or Russia? How about the name of the 'constitution' of Germany? Should be easy, but turn out to be surprisingly hard.

Over 600,000 Americans were killed in the Civil War when you include Confederate losses. While they might not have wanted to be a part of the US, their secession was never recognized and southern residents remained American citizens after the Union won.
