    What is the only state that the bald age does not live in?

    • Ohio

    • Florida

    • Maine

    • Hawaii

    Correct Answer
    A. Hawaii
    Explanation
    The bald eagle does not live in Hawaii. This is because Hawaii is located in the middle of the Pacific Ocean and does not have the suitable habitat and resources for bald eagles to survive. Bald eagles are primarily found in North America, specifically in areas near bodies of water such as lakes, rivers, and coastlines. They require large trees for nesting and prey on fish and small mammals. Therefore, Hawaii being an isolated island state without these specific requirements makes it the only state where the bald eagle does not live.
