Answer: Algonquin Provincial Park, Ontario, Canada
Algonquin Provincial Park in Ontario is a huge area of forests, rivers and lakes. American beavers build dams and lodges of sticks and mud here, which turn small streams into ponds. The beaver has been an official symbol of Canada since 1975. Its flat tail slaps the water to warn other beavers of danger.

3. Where does the blue-footed booby live in the wild?
Answer: Galápagos Islands, Ecuador
About 900 kilometres west of Ecuador, the Galápagos Islands sit in the Pacific Ocean. Blue-footed boobies nest on the ground on several of the islands and are not afraid of visitors. They fly out over the sea and plunge into the water to catch fish. The bluer a male's feet, the more likely a female is to pick him.

4. Where does the thorny devil live in the wild?
Answer: Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, Australia
Uluru is a huge red rock in the desert of central Australia, and the red sand around it is home to thorny devils. These slow lizards eat only ants, picking up many of them each day with a sticky tongue. If a thorny devil is scared, it tucks its head down and shows a spiky lump on its neck that looks like a second head.

5. Where does the Chihuahua come from?
Answer: Chihuahua, Mexico
Chihuahua, the largest state in Mexico, gave the little dog its name. Tiny dogs like them were found there in the 1800s, and travellers took them north to the United States. Some people link them to the Techichi, a small dog kept in Mexico long ago. The city of Chihuahua is the state capital.
