Answer collection
Animals, wildlife and animal body parts
Animal prompts mix size, spelling and anatomy. A metric ton is a hard cut-off, four letters is a hard cut-off, and a body part used for fighting has to belong to an animal rather than a person.
Because the conditions are checkable, these questions produce short high-value lists: a handful of names at 85 or 100 points and a long tail of low-scoring ones that only just fit.
Each question shows the thirty most common recorded answers next to the twenty highest-scoring ones, and links back to the dated sheet it came from.

How these lists are recorded
Every name, point value and tier comes from the dated answer sheet captured for that dive. Nothing on this page is estimated, re-scored or merged across dates: a name that scored 100 on one date can score 10 on another, so each list keeps its own date. The original game decides whether a live answer is accepted.
Lists stop at thirty rows per block. The complete sheet, including every recorded name and its tier, stays on the dated page linked under each question. How records are checked.
