Zac's animal quiz - the ANSWERS

Thank you for having a go everyone.

These are the answers:

1. fastest mammal over a long distance - American Antelope (but I like your answer Babs-Merel)

2. animal with strongest skin - Hippopotamus (most of you very very close)

3. two animals adults bet on - dogs and horse (but you are all right - in other countries they bet on all of these)

4. smallest mammal - bumblebee bat (I gave Hazel's Nana 1/2 a point because she said bat)

5. Most talkative bird - budgie (I didn't mean cartoons so Daffy and Donald Duck are wrong. The other answers were close)

The scores were:
Hazel - 1
Steve - 1
Hazel's Nana - 1.5 (bat is half right it is the Bumble bee bat)
Babs-Merel - 2

Kiwi



I made a kiwi in the holidays. This is me and Ronnie and the kiwi.

The Kiwi's name is 'Kiwi' and his nick-name is 'Kiwifruit.'

I designed this kiwi myself without any help.

I went on holiday to the south island in a camper van. We went to kaikora and hanmer springs. Weplayed in to the snow and went in the hot pools twice.
