Q63. Consider the following pairs :
Country Animal found in its natural habitat
1. Brazil Indri
2. Indonesia Elk
3. Madagascar Bonobo
How many of the pairs given above are correctly matched ?
Detailed Solution
None of the pairs are correctly matched. The Indri is a large lemur endemic to Madagascar, not Brazil. Elks are primarily found in North America and parts of Central and East Asia, not Indonesia.
Bonobos, also known as pygmy chimpanzees, are found exclusively in the Congo Basin of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (Central Africa), not Madagascar. This question tests specific knowledge of animal distribution and their natural habitats, which is a component of biodiversity and conservation topics in the Environment & Ecology syllabus.
Such factual questions often require precise geographical and biological understanding.
