In the exam (French)

Quel animal est un symbole de la France ?

  1. aThe eagleL’aigle
  2. bThe lionLe lion
  3. cThe roosterLe coqCorrect answer
  4. dThe bearL’ours

Why?

The Gallic rooster (coq gaulois) is a traditional symbol of France; you can see it, for example, on the shirts of several French national teams. It is not an official symbol of the Republic, unlike the flag, the anthem or the motto. The eagle was used by Napoleon, but it does not represent France today.
