Emma got the answer that most impressed though, 13 completely right. No one got 2(thought this was easy but oh well answers ranged from 20 million to 700 million I think), 3, 9-mainly hippos and large animals, 12, 15 or 17.

I cant bloody believe it. This was so hard, and I generally lack in general knowledge. I am in utter disbelief, that I am going to have to do the quiz tomorrow. Please can people put what they would like the quiz to be on, and i'll see what I can do xx

My A-level geography served me well for question 13. I've since taught it to the kids a couple of times when we've studied industry, so I found that one simple.
Well done Jess and thanks for a fun quiz Flintus.

I was very generous, I gave you half for pi times radius squared for 12 as this is the area of a circle.
