The answers to today’s Strands, game #111, are…
[ul]
[li]OPOSSUM[/li][li]SKUNK[/li][li]COYOTE[/li][li]AARDVARK[/li][li]LEOPARD[/li][li]WOMBAT[/li][li]SPANGRAM: NOCTURNAL[/li][/ul]
[ul]
[li]My rating: Easy[/li][li]My score: Perfect[/li][/ul]
Other than the fact that I got a little hung up on urban night creatures, looking in vain for the likes of FOX and BADGER, this was another fairly easy Strands puzzle. I didn’t necessarily know that AARDVARKs and WOMBATs are nocturnal, but SKUNK, OPPOSUM and COYOTE were all easy, meaning I solved this one with no real problems.
