	You need to add FLY and HOG

	foobar:	Oct 7th, 2009 at 19:17 GMT		2 points
	Added fly. Hog is an alternate answer for pig.

	If you include ewe, for female sheep, how about doe, for female deer?

	foobar:	Oct 7th, 2009 at 19:29 GMT		1 point
	added doe.

	It sure seems like there should be a lot more than this but I can't think of any and I was pleased to see that even the more obscure animals I thought of were on there. I would recommend a longer time limit for a quiz like this, I was still a long way from giving up when the time ran out. I could argue that bug and boa don't deserve to be here. Very fun quiz overall though.

	How about kid (i.e. baby goat)? And since when is a roc a real animal?

	Nice idea! I think ewe, doe, etc. should be removed given they're really just specifiers and not a type of animal themselves. But if you are keeping them, sow should be added. It seems a bit wrong to have pug (when you already have dog) and bug on there as well.

	I moved the time to 5 minutes. The hard thing is keeping some kind of consistency with animals. I thought of kid (and pup and boy) but did not include them as they were only young animals. And as pointed out, bug, boa and pug are problematic. Btw, sow is an alternate answer for pig.

	Great starting list, foobar! This is the first "name animals" game I've come to that wasn't a hundred animals short. What about kob, moa, kea, kae, ray, ahi, bot, eft, ern, goa, koi, sei, tui? I know "moc" can be short for "moccasin" the shoe, but I wonder if it should count for the snake as well.

	Thanks HPZ. I added some of your suggestions, and increased the time.

	Enjoyed this quiz. Much harder than it initially seems.

	foobar:	Oct 9th, 2009 at 21:43 GMT		2 points
	I restructured the quiz a bit, giving a hint as type of animal.

	I like it! Five Sporcles!

	Add ara

	I'll agree with hpz about adding "eft," which would soothe those of us who do crosswords. :p I wonder about moa, though, since isn't it officially extinct? Do extinct animals count? Anyway, nice job.

	Was surprised dab wasn't there http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dab_(fish)

	I feel like "cow" and "ewe" and "doe" shouldn't count. They aren't species of animals, they're a type of bovine (or whale or such), sheep and deer. Still, good stuff.

	How about "ani", a type of bird?
