Trivia: Which of these countries is known to be the home of a rare black flamingo?

Romania
Mexico
Cyprus
Iceland

The correct answer is Cyprus

So why is this answer correct? : Found by the salt lakes of the Akrotiri Environmental Center in Cyprus, the black flamingo isn’t considered a different species from your typical pink flamingo, but it does have a genetic condition that makes it produce more melanin, which in turns makes its feathers much darker. Only one other place in the world can claim to be the home of a black flamingo — a photographer spotted one in Israel in 2013.
