      Cool The Animal Game

      In an effort to raise awareness of our fellow creatures with which we share this planet, I thought I would initiate this thread. And thought we could have a little fun along the way.
      I will start by asking a question to which there can only be one answer. The question will be discriptive with regard to a specific animal. The one who answers the quetion with both the english and latin name for the animal then asks the next question, etc. In addition, when the question has been correctly answered, the member posing the question should post an image of that animal.
      On with the game...

      Question What Creature Am I?

      This creature shares the same name of a tasty fruit (kind of looks like the fruit too, actually), apparently they lay the largest egg in relation to their body size (maybe the same size as the fruit?), and this creature is a celebrated as a National symbol.

      It is indeed the Kiwi! Excellent Michael - your turn!

      I suppose I made that one pretty easy saying was it has the same name as a fruit .... I mean really .... how many animals are named after the banana or the strawberry - none!

      Cannibal Cane Toad - Bufo marinus.



      I must say this toad does look tough!

      Thank you very much.
      LOL. It's a good thing they're smaller than we are. Hehehe.

      Question

      This animal is found along the southern and western coast of Australia. It's conservation status is 'Near Threatened'. And it is the only member of it's genus.
      It's name is derived from it's resemblance to a mythical creature. And they grow to approximately 20-24cm (10-12in). It's appearance allows it to camouflage with it's surroundings. And it is capable of changing it's color to blend in.
      Additional clue; Crystallorri is well know to like the mythical creature mentioned above. Hehehe.
      Who am I???

      Hehehe. Cool pic. And good guess, but 'no.'
      Think aquatic. (hint, hint)
      p.s., I liked the pic so much I added it to my "Life" folder so it will be one of the images in my screen saver. Cool.

      Oh good, I am glad you liked it so! Well, to be honest ... I couldn't help myself ... I just had to post that photo when I saw it ... it was so funny!!

      Plus, I had a feeling your choice of animal was aquatic .... (*hsigh* ... remind me, to never second guess my intuition!)

      And here I thought second guessing the intuition was a male thing. Lol.
      Next clue, same animal;
      It's common name indicates a dragon, yet it's latin name indicates a horse.
