What else should you do if your backyard happens to be thousands of square miles of treeless rolling tundra?
Stories of an unusual life in the arctic territory of Nunavut.
Anything from 2 to 9 multiplied by 9 gives a two digit number whose digits add to 9: 18, 27, 36, ... Subtract 5 from that and you get 4, or the letter D. Denmark is the only country in Europe starting with a D. Its second letter is an E. Commonly known animals whose English names start with an E are eagle, elephant, and emu. (By the way, birds ARE animals, they're just not mammals.) Eliminating the birds leaves a gray elephant from Denmark.
