being from Louisiana I got it right. They have a pretty big wing span when they fly. There are lots in the bayous and will flock around camps in hopes you throw them fish parts.

One of the leading causes of death in pelicans is actually blindness. They can damage their eyes crashing into the water to catch fish. If they eventually damage both eyes they can no longer feed.

Player #2867639, I will never forget my trip to New Orleans, I went six months after Katrina to help…The people of New Orleans (Louisiana) were happy to see our church group from Southern California. They told me if we ever need help, they would be here to respond. Thank God we haven’t had the “Big One”. As I wrote I thank those in “The Pelican State” for their kind word. God continue to be with these people and for that matter (at this time) all of America.

I have an issue with the math questions. some of the problems are incorrect in the answers. the order of operations is not followed and the game doesn't have some of the positive or negative signs correct. who developed the math questions? the person or people need to review 7th grade algebra.

Trying to remember, I think it was Ogden Nash who said, "An interesting bird is the pelican; his beak holds more than his belly can".
