    Spot on, Gunter,
    55 awarded (http://www.pdsa.org.uk/page309.html)

    54 were awarded between 1943 and 1949 to pigeons, dogs, horses and one to the ships cat of HMS Amethyst. The 55th was awarded in 2000 to the mascot dog of a Canadian bn serving in Hong Kong.


    OK, re-read the information and a further 5 medals were awarded following 9-11 and for animals serving in Kosovo and Iraq, so that brings it up to 60. Still, 55 was the number I was looking for so your quiz....

    Currently what is the most common blood type in Canada?

    I dont need positive or negative because I dont know.

    Hint its not what it was 30 years ago.

    I donno about positive or negative but you got it right. To think just 30 years ago it was the least common.

    I cheated and googled, which gave "Plastic People's Liberation Organization" -- my stash of 1:35 figures may never seem the same! :roll:

    Since this is the biology quiz, I assume this is NOT the answer you are looking for!
