Name That Mammal Quiz

So 'that's' what a shrew looks like. Cute little guy. ^^

19/20 with 2 mins to go. But I had no idea about the shrew.

You have never seen a shrew, they are everywhere in the Pacific Northwest

ez

I'm pretty sure that both the koala and Tasmanian devil are marsupials, not mammals.

marsupials are mammals.

@Gigano Marsupials are still mammals. Koalas are an order of mammals known as marsupialia, or marsupials.

So that's what a TD looks like!

I live in Tasmania and I havn't seen a devil yet. Not in the wild anyway.

I only knew the opossum from watching Over The Hedge with my nephew too many times :)

19/20. I missed badger :(

Are they, @420anaitor? C: I didn't know that, I'm an East Coast girl.

And yeah, gotta agree with Greg here. Mammals are classified as having live births, which marsupials do. Basically everything is a mammal except for birds and reptiles and amphibians, unless I'm mistaken. ^^;;

Well, and insects/arachnids >w>

20/20 with 2 mins left :)

Aww. I spelt Meercat, not Meerkat XD Well that failed. My name is related to it!

darkseraphim21: mammals are animals with mammary glands, or glands that give milk. Some fish and reptiles have "live births" and that wouldnt necessarily make them a mammal, would it?

Meercat should be accepted. It's an easy and common mispelling. If you see the word meercat, you would surely know I was talking about meerkats, right?

I have heard of a shrew but i never saw one in my life... they're really cuttee <3 :)

almost missed the shrew.....

I don't know the english words for most of those. damn.

Got them all. Phew!

"Meercat" should be accepted too :(

100% :)

If you click on the picture of the badger, it credits the photo to "badgerhero." Kinda spoils the fun.

I never knew sloths were so... awkward....

Got all of them had trouble with the meerkat though- i kept wanting to type Alexander!!!

It might not be a bad idea to find a better picture of a shrew. From that angle it could be any rodent.

I spelled it "meercat", also. :( Only one I missed.

@darkseraphim21 - You forgot the platypus, which is still a mamal, but lays eggs - which is a monotreme.

100%

Didn't recognise the shrew - got all the rest though

2:56 20/20 easy quiz

argh I missed the shrew, got the rest with 2-3 min left.

You should let opossum be spelled with two p's. I realize misspelling are probably not the best to accept, but I could swear that when I was a kid we were spelling it with two p's. Was it ever changed from two to one I wonder?

Aussie animals jhust like being difficult! We have the only 2 egg-laying mammals/marsupials/whatever! feel sorry for us in primary (elementary) school!

"No, no, no! It's compare de market dot com, not compare de meerkat dot com." lol I got 19/20, missed the devil "Simples."

I spelled it meercat so got that one wrong. Otherwise got them all.

all of them with 2:15 to go HELL YEAH :)

20/20 with 2:53 left! :D

Apparently neither "timon" or "great majestic beast from The Lion King" are acceptable answers for Meerkat... I don't know how I feel about this.

I couldn't spell raccoon... fail xP

100% with 3:07 left. Honey badger don't care :)

tasmanian devil looks kind of like a cross between a bear and a rat.

i cant spell racccoooon???

Got 'em all 3:12. The shrew looks kind of like a mix between a bug and a mouse..

Got All of them. SOOOOOOOOO Easy!

Guess I misspelled opossom.....had no idea about the Tasmanian Devil....

Marsupials are still mammals.

meercat should be an answer. how many people know meerkat is spelled with a "K".

19/20...forgot shrew!!!

Please accept kamel and coala. NOT!

20/20 :)

I totally just guessed on shrew.
