Lifted from Huffington Post because bullets are better than photo slideshows:

• Denmark: Elephant’s Trunk
• Germany & Poland: Monkey’s Tail
• Greek: Little Duck
• Hebrew: Strudel
• Italy: Snail
• China: Mouse
• Kazakhstan: Moon’s Ear
• Russia: Dog Face
• Finland: Sleeping Cat
• Korea: Sea Snail
• Hungary: Maggot

In short: Americans are unimaginative.
