Answer: Komodo National Park, Indonesia
Blue tangs, the bright blue fish with a yellow tail, live on coral reefs around Komodo National Park in Indonesia.

Blue tangs swim in small groups and dart into gaps in the coral when they feel threatened.

2. Where do wild luna moths live?
Answer: Shenandoah National Park, United States
Luna moths live in hardwood forests across the eastern United States and southern Canada. Shenandoah National Park in Virginia has hickory, walnut and birch trees, whose leaves their caterpillars eat. The pale green adults fly at night and have no working mouth, so they live for only about a week.

3. Where was the Jersey cow first bred?
Answer: St Helier, Jersey
Jersey cows come from the island of Jersey, a small island in the English Channel close to the coast of France. St Helier is its main town. The islanders have kept the breed pure by not allowing other cattle to be brought in, a rule that dates from 1789. Jersey milk is rich and creamy, which is why the breed is loved for butter and cream.

4. Where do wild clownfish live?
Answer: Great Barrier Reef, Australia
Clownfish live among the stinging tentacles of sea anemones on coral reefs, including the Great Barrier Reef off the coast of Queensland, Australia. A coating of slimy mucus on their skin helps protect them from the stings. In return, the clownfish chase away small fish that nibble the anemone.

5. Where do wild mantis shrimp live?
Answer: Lembeh Strait, Indonesia
Lembeh Strait is a narrow channel of black volcanic sand between Lembeh Island and northern Sulawesi in Indonesia. Divers come here to find strange small animals, including mantis shrimp. These shrimp dig burrows in the sand and watch from the doorway. A mantis shrimp strikes with a club on its arm so fast that it breaks open the shells of crabs and snails.
