You could probably argue the case that for Norway, Sweden, Finland and Russia that Polar Bears are the same If not larger than moose by weight. They both have average weight ranges of roughly about 800-1600 lbs according to google and Female moose are on average a lot lighter than female polar bears as there’s big weight differences in male and Female moose but not nearly as much between polar bears. Great quiz tho. I enjoyed it!

You might get some griping about not accepting "wisent" for bison. But anyone who knows "wisent" should know that they're bison....

Source? I'm curious about fox sightings in Vatican City? Does it have to be proven to live within the border or is being spotted enough to count?

Vatican City was quite difficult to find information on, but heres what I found:

https://www.iucnredlist.org/species/23062/193903628

The IUCN Red List has the red fox's range the entirety of Italy

And all these websites mention the red fox:

https://www.inaturalist.org/check_lists/9999-Vatican-City-Check-List?iconic_taxon=40151

https://animalia.bio/vatican-animals

https://www.listofcountriesoftheworld.com/vt-animals.html

From what I have found, I assume they are seen in the gardens and parks in the Vatican.

If you count walrus as not fully aquatic would monk seal count for Malta?

According to the IUCN Red List, the Mediterranean monk seal is extinct in Malta, which is why I didn't count it.
