The answers to today's Strands, game #111, are…

  • OPOSSUM
  • SKUNK
  • COYOTE
  • AARDVARK
  • LEOPARD
  • WOMBAT
  • SPANGRAM: NOCTURNAL

  • My rating: Easy
  • My score: Perfect

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.
