  1. 1. Where do wild California condors live?

    California condor

    Answer: Grand Canyon National Park, USA

    Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona is a vast canyon cut by the Colorado River. California condors soar on warm air rising from its cliffs, looking for dead animals to eat. In the 1980s fewer than 30 condors were left, so scientists raised young birds in care and began releasing them near the canyon in 1996.

    Koala

    Answer: Kennett River, Great Ocean Road, Australia

    Kennett River is a small spot on the Great Ocean Road in Victoria, Australia. Wild koalas sit in the eucalyptus trees along the roadside here, often fast asleep. Koalas eat almost nothing but eucalyptus leaves, which give them little energy, so they rest for much of the day. Walkers can often spot them high in the branches.

    In 1993 an amateur fossil hunter spotted a large bone in the badlands near Villa El Chocon in Patagonia, Argentina. The dig turned up a giant meat eater, later named Giganotosaurus. It lived nearly 100 million years ago and was one of the biggest meat-eating dinosaurs known.

  5. 5. Where does the Labrador retriever come from?

    Labrador retriever

    Answer: St. John's, Canada

    Labrador retrievers are usually traced to the island of Newfoundland in Canada. Fishermen there used strong swimming dogs to haul nets and fetch fish. Saint John's is the island's biggest city and gave its name to the small water dogs that were the Labrador's ancestors. Visitors took some to England in the 1800s, and breeders there shaped the modern Labrador.
