Size It Up Animals answer: November 6
The five Animals silhouettes for November 6, 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 64 ran from a common house gecko (12 cm) to a basilosaurus (20 m). The widest gap was round 5, Bowhead Whale against Bald Eagle, at 8.2×; the closest call was round 1, Cheetah against Grizzly Bear, only 1.5× apart — the kind of round that separates a 90 from a 60.
