	I've never heard of a lot of these names!

	What is a serval?

	piglet isn't allowed for hog?

	Puggle?! Hmm...not sure about hatchling and fledgling. A bit vague, perhaps?

	I think that the quiz should be made bigger to include more commonly known baby animals. Also, it would be more fun!!

	Why when I typed in chick did it come up with squab? I mean, I know I get the answer but that's not exactly the art of guessing is it!

	I hate to tell them but a shoat is not a newborn pig. Shoats are about young weaned hogs.

	a baby eagle is an egret, not a fledgling, that could be any small bird

	A baby platypus is not called a 'puggle'. That is a baby echidna. There is not official name for baby platypus.

	An egret is a different bird all together. A baby eagle is an eaglet.

	I'm surprised and amused that that nobody commented on the dinosaur clue? Kudos for adding it, but I'm not sure I've ever seen dinosaurs listed on any other animal quiz. It struck me as funny and strange when I saw it.

Comment below threshold: show it

	@burplefus totaly agree about the eagle, what a cop out. Also the skunk is rather pointless as you get it when try and type in kitten.

	a newborn hog is a piglet, a weaning age is a pig never heard of shoat

	OscilatingGibbon:	Mar 28th, 2009 at 09:49 GMT		5 points
	I think Hoglet sounds much cuter than Shoat

	Ended up typing "camelot" for baby camel. Some of these are rather hard. And @AaronW: ponies are not baby horses, ponies are small horses belonging to certain breeds, such as Shetland ponies. Ponies don't ever "grow up" into larger horses.

	a puggle is NOT the official name for a baby platypus, there is not official name for them

	why was eaglet not right? And what on earth is a puggle??

	missymeg05:	Jul 21st, 2009 at 21:32 GMT		7 points
	sigh Sporcle apparently doesn't approve of my alternate names. No Bambi baby deer, skunkie baby skunk or Little Foot baby dinosaur...how disappointing.

	Squab!?!

	luckygemini521:	Nov 25th, 2009 at 16:28 GMT		1 point
	haha definitely tried hoglet too after piglet didn't work!

	IanDalziel:	Dec 4th, 2009 at 21:09 GMT		1 point
	Any bird is a hatchling once it has hatched, then a fledgling when it is (you've guessed) fledged...

	spmk1017:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 00:14 GMT		4 points
	@jennessa- an egret is a different type of bird similar to a heron perhaps you meant eaglet?

	anyone else try bambi and roo for deer and kangaroo? i jut could not remember what they were for the life of me.

	Back in my day we called em baby dinosaurs.

	bondquizace:	Feb 11th, 2010 at 05:01 GMT		1 point
	who the hell ever heard of a shoat?! They should have accepted piglet.

	tessacar:	Mar 18th, 2010 at 21:22 GMT		-1 points
	i was hoping it would take bambi for a baby deer!!!

	Crazy:	Mar 26th, 2010 at 02:37 GMT		3 points
	Yeah, puggle is the term for a hatched echidna, not a platypus.

	_gersh:	Apr 3rd, 2010 at 20:46 GMT		-3 points
	I said pony for horse.

	Melne11:	Apr 7th, 2010 at 21:09 GMT		1 point
	PIGLET is a baby hog... and if you are going to get technical, the clue should be Swine... not hog.

	cheesemonster:	Jun 1st, 2010 at 00:46 GMT		5 points
	I thought puggle was a cross between a pug and a beagle. Is that what platypuses really are?

	Why didn't it accept "baby camel" "baby coyote" "baby kangaroo" "baby llama" "baby sheep" "baby skunk" "baby deer" "baby goat" "baby horse" "baby platypus" "baby dove" "baby serval" "baby dinosaur" "baby hog" "baby eagle" or "baby gorilla" Now I have to expand my vocabulary!?!?!?! Preposterous!

	anubisharmony:	Dec 14th, 2010 at 21:34 GMT		1 point
	For the Shoat confusion... A shoat is a young male swine. Newborn swine are piglets.

	camly:	Jan 2nd, 2011 at 00:38 GMT		0 points
	Uuuummm... Baby dinosaur?

	wakethesun:	Feb 12th, 2011 at 03:48 GMT		1 point
	Good mix of common and lesser-known choices! Although the playtpus one is completely incorrect, and the hog one is debatable.

	i looooove puggles!
