What is your national animal?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_national_animals

Mine is a unicorn.

...still makes me giggle.

 

Love how England's is a lion even though they don't even live naturally in this country.

 

And unicorns just roam Scotland?

 

It's also sometimes a Unicorn, which don't live naturally at all.

 

...You didn't know that??

 

Bald Eagle, which I'm sure you'll hear of a lot in this thread

 

Haters Gonna Hate​

 

The macaw, jaguar and rufous-bellied thrush.

Jaguar's pretty fucking badass. My grandpa also owns a couple of macaws. I guess he's more patriotic than I thought.

 

A rooster.
Gallus is the latin word for Gallic (Gaulls are our ancestors) and rooster.

 

Spoiler

Also, love how diverse the United Kingdom is.

I also think Lion takes place for most national animals.

 

Gauls and Briton. Julius Caesar conquered us all. Weren't we lucky?

I accept the European Robin, we have a territorial one in our garden. Friendly little thing.

I love the amount of dragons on this list.

 

I live in Murica. Our national animal is a Flying Freedom Dispenser.

 

Huh ? What are you talking about ? ^^

Spoiler

 

Definitely a Pikachu.

okay but it's a carabao, the asian water buffalo !

 

Australia is, I'm pretty sure, the only country that eats their national animal.

Also, Bhutan is cheating.
"The Druk (Dzongkha: འབྲུག་) is the "Thunder Dragon" of Bhutanese mythology and a Bhutanese national symbol."

 

my national animal is the eagle

 

Not the sounds you associate with the badass it's made out to be. No, that screech sound you hear is in fact a red-tailed hawk.

I used to volunteer at a local raptor sanctuary. Would probably still be if the woman in charge wasn't a complete nutcase who showed blatant favoritism and took credit for everything her interns did.

 

the milkfish, the monkey-eating eagle and the water buffalo

 

I want to live in Papua New Guinea- they get a Bird of paradise as well as a Dugong ;-;

Is Japan's like Pikachu or something *shot*


Mute swan! Woo, why specifically mute? xD And Wales get a Dragon!
