The Emu War and the Dingo Fence have no relevance to each other whatsoever. If I remember correctly, which I probably don't, they didn't even co-exist together.
It actually is partially due to climate change, massive chunks of Koala habitats were burnt down during the 2020 bushfires, which were escalated by climate change.
The company I work for has a small office in Berkeley, CA, but the main offices are elsewhere. On April 1st one year, the CA office sent an all staff email congratulating one of its employees for swimming from Berkeley to Sacramento on a regular basis for meetings. They claimed he did it weekly to help us meet our sustainability goals. Many, many others outside of CA fell for it, and sent their kudos. The distance between the two cities is about 90 miles. I thought their April Fool's joke was brilliant.
Your comment has actually made me think that I didn't know the actual distance between Australia and New Zealand, so I made the measurement on Gologle Earth. Turns out the Tasman Sea is 1.488 km wide! That, and the fact that the waters are very deep, are probably the reasons why Australia was colonized by Homo Sapiens before Europe, while New Zealand remained uninhabited until the late Middle Ages. I LOVE these quiz.
I thought it may have been possible with a support team, that would perhaps allow someone to swim for a few hours a day and rest and sleep on a boat. Of course, come to think of it, that wouldn't really be a verifiable record, as the supporting boat would inevitably drift somewhat while the swimmer is on it, but someone has apparently crossed the Atlantic Ocean that way.
For the first question I chose false (which is the correct answer), but it said I was incorrect, despite the quiz saying that false is the correct answer. Some kind of glitch maybe....
It's a bit pedantic, I'll admit, but I think the snakebite question is too vague. It should refer to "documented" snake bite deaths. There are undoubtedly people in remote regions that die of snakebite, whose deaths are unrecorded on official rolls.
They may not add up to the hundreds, but they are unquestionably there.
The statement was false anyway. So it didn't really matter if it said brand or company, because it's neither chocolate, nor a company.
It would have been more interesting if the statement was: "Shapes is a popular biscuit company" and the answer was false because it's technically not a company...
Then the Emu War started
BTW, why more than 9 minutes to complete it? 3 - 4 would be enough I'd imagine.
I just assumed that some people are absolute freaks of nature and somebody managed it.
