National Parks Quiz And Trivia #12 – The Wildlife Edition

The last quiz and trivia piece was all about botany. This quiz is all about wildlife.

So, go ahead and test your wildlife knowledge on these quiz questions before looking at the answers at the bottom of this piece.

The many national park visits offered some wonderful surprises including these ten that we seem to remember best.
