Size It Up Animals answer: October 24
The five Animals silhouettes for October 24, with the true sizes. If you have not played yet, this page is a spoiler — play these five first, then come back to argue with the numbers.
Day 51 ran from a European robin (13 cm) to a fin whale (21 m). The widest gap was round 5, Fin Whale against Golden Retriever, at 21×; the closest call was round 3, Ring-tailed Lemur against Toco Toucan, only 1.3× apart — the kind of round that separates a 90 from a 60.
