	@jack depends on the size of the turtle.

	SowCrates:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 18:44 GMT	56 points
	@ Jack, a box turtle is about the size of an x-box controller, and really can't make its way across a tank very fast. Unless there are crickets or worms or leftover steak that we couldn't eat, then it becomes a turtle possessed with unfathomable speeds of up to .7 mph.

	Missed gerbil and horse : One bonus answer, got it when I typed it monkey lol

	ever since harry potter, I've always wanted an owl.

	Funguy2:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 18:51 GMT	-3 points
	11 out of 14, plus I got "other" as a bonus

	Offtheheazy6:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 18:51 GMT	15 points
	I typed in monkey and the secret "other" category popped up, lol, that was random (thank you chimp lady)

	brenlo:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 18:51 GMT	30 points
	"bunny" should be accepted for rabbit.

	PoisonSumac:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 18:54 GMT	28 points
	I find it had to believe that there are 2,087,000 HOUSEHOLDS with PET HORSES, thats almost as many the last 5 combined! Even if it were counting each horse individually (not households as is stated) I think that is pretty high if it is only supposed to include pet horses and not working, racing, etc. Or maybe I'm just mad because I never got a pony... ;)

	do you have tortoises in america?

	Gordo:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 19:05 GMT	9 points
	@Jack - yes, we've got some tortoises in the deserts of Southern California and Nevada. Not sure where else.

	I like the picture of Christian the Lion, but he was in England

	Leeny:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 19:07 GMT	18 points
	I'm surprised to see that more people have turtles than hamsters or gerbils...I thought those would be way higher up!

	ShepherdBook:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 19:10 GMT	5 points
	The AVMA certainly has no consistency in their catergories - mammals are listed by species (expect for livestock). Meanwhile, ALL birds are listed together? I'd like to see a distinction made between canaries, parakeets, cockatiels and other birds. Same thing with fish.

	jessicahope85:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 19:11 GMT	9 points
	:/ missed horses and livestock. i didn't think livestock would be included in "household" pets. oh well, still proud of myself for getting the rest plus the bonus. :)

	cmkeller:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 19:14 GMT	66 points
	I was kind of hoping that "child" would be a bonus answer.

	jd1z:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 19:18 GMT	2 points
	helps to be in ANSC. I wonder what all is accepted under "other" .. i typed lion- hah

	bean:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 19:20 GMT	33 points
	Norwegian blue parrots are the best. When they're not dead.

	@ bean - or stunned.

	chambers:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 19:28 GMT	1 point
	hence my confusion

	mungar:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 19:31 GMT	14 points
	Boo, no chinchillas... not even for other.

	kvoss9:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 19:32 GMT	35 points
	Where is the Chia Pet?!

	Onno:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 19:35 GMT	3 points
	Could have used some more time... otherwise great quiz, I'd like more animal quizzes (preferably mixed with geography or language maybe)

	imprettygood:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 19:36 GMT	3 points
	A horse,seriously i had no idea

	jc88:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 19:40 GMT	9 points
	I got the bonus "other" by typing alligator.

	HollywoodLeo:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 19:42 GMT	18 points
	You know, there are people in this world that don't have to put up with all this ****. Like that guy that invented the pet rock. You see, that's what you have to do. You have to use your mind and come up with some really great idea like that and you can make millions, never have to work again!

	geowiz85:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 19:50 GMT	6 points
	@ imprettygood, horse was the only one i didnt get, after i got livestock by typing pig, i figured horse was included in that

	beren:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 19:56 GMT	16 points

	i got everything but quinea pig. i feel bad. my sister had a guinea pig.

	Kitnaz:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 20:19 GMT	2 points
	I put "bear" for a joke and got a bonus - I don't see someone keeping a Bear in their backyard. How are Livestock (aka Pigs, Cows) more common than Guinea Pigs? :S

	Gordo:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 20:23 GMT	9 points
	@btroup1 - there are varieties or breeds of horses, dogs, and cats. Not different species of horses, dogs, and cats. A dove is an entirely different species from a cockatiel, which is an entirely different species from a macaw parrot.

	red_dragon:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 20:24 GMT	9 points
	managed the bonus answer when I typed in "lion." That kinda scares me, not gonna lie.

	weizenugb:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 20:25 GMT	0 points
	The note in the heading of this game should be changed. A grizzly bear is actually a subspecies of brown bear (Ursus arctos), not a "breed" of bear. Breed is a different idea. Also, the term "bear" strictly speaking refers not to a species but to the family Ursidae, though the majority of bears people are familiar with belong to the genus Ursus.
