Next quiz questions coming up - (or refer to pg. 1 if you prefer to answer in random order, like the trailblazer-think-outside-the-box Mel)

3. It is widely known the Universe is made up of neutrons, protons, and morons. How many oxymorons did we encounter on our trip?

4. Can you name any?

5. How many DIFFERENT cheetahs did we encounter this trip?

6. How many camouflaged animals did we encounter this trip? (I mean, the one's who weren't REALLY good at it?) -O- :-?

0/* Hi All-Nature - WONDERFUL avatar! lol Thanks for joining this madness...

I should have properly called it a Guessing Quiz….You're supposed to offer an educated guess based on your extensive knowledge of the wild. Whomever comes closest gets the point. 0-

Isn't this the way it's done in your classrooms in this "everybody-gets-a-trophy" world? -O- -O-

Since nan is the only one who guessed on the cheetahs, she gets 1 point ^Q^ ^Q^

Now, lets see how close she was ;-)
