Sporcle Quiz: Animals Named After People

Animals Named After People

Not long ago, we had a quiz about animals named after animals.  Now, we're going to offer one about animals named after people.  There are a few reasons that a person could have an animal named in their honor.  They could have discovered it (though naming a creature after yourself is frowned upon these days).  Or, they could name it after someone else as a tribute - a fellow scientist, a conservationist, a patron, a loved one...  Either way, there a lot of animals that are named after a lot of people.  Can you make some matches?'

And whose zebra are you?
