Bri, some time you have to go to Omaha, Nebraska's Henry Doorly Zoo. It gets my vote for best US zoo. They have a Kingdoms of the Night exhibit and one exhibit within it has about a doesen coons and a dozen young gators and a few snapping turtles and the coons hold there own in there! It really is a revolutionatry exhibit. Quoted from someone else but true, "A Louisiana swamp with racoons boping alligators on the head."

I don't think we have a state dog.

I know that Louisianna has the Catahoula leopard dog, Texas has the Blue Lacy, S. Carolina has the Boykin Spaniel, N. Carolina has the Plott Hound, but I don't know the rest.

Massachusett's dog has to be, of course: The Boston Terrier!
And our state fish: The Cod!
and Gina, OUR state Insect is one of your favorites" The Lady Bug

of course, boston terriers! that was waaay after you were born .. but there oughta be one or two around your block now, right? ;)

State Dogs.. not much there. I'd say golden retriever for california. :D

I don't know for new york yet. (oh yeah, maybe yorkies?)

karen, and your state cat is tabby and for horse, morgan.

Funny enough no Boston Terriers in my neighborhood, closest we've got is a Buggle - pug/beagle mix. But I have seen them in Boston! :) and Cambridge, too ...

Thank-You for that web site, Gina!!!

It explains "The Wolverine State" dispute. ;)


I learned this, in the 8th grade, (Michigan History Class) :o


The web site was a refresher course, of course ;)

Hey, I will volunteer the white-tailed deer for Minnesota!!! You drive out in the country and you are bound to see at least 2-3 deer at a time! Besides, it's not like there are a lot of those listed as the state mammal! hahaha:D;)
