Just Like an Animal

In which of the following paragraphs does the name of an animal not appear?

I was suddenly confronted by a group of evil-doers and hardened criminals.

Their leader was well-dressed and swarthy, wearing thick-rimmed tinted spectacles.

"Who is this?" said a small, squat individual. "I don't trust him; he could be armed!"

The leader roared with laughter and gesticulated with his bejewelled arm. "Believe me, he is quite harmless," he said, "but escort him from the premises immediately."

I walked out into the cold night air with a huge sigh of relief. This time I had avoided the trap easily, but I knew I might not be so lucky next time.








Look below for a hint.








Hint: The first paragraph has "doe" in it.

  1. Here's what I've got:

    "I was suddenly confronted by a group of evil-doers and hardened criminals.

    Their leader was well-dressed and swarthy, wearing thick-rimmed tinted spectacles.

    "Who is this?" said a small, squat individual. "I don't trust him; he could be armed!"

    The leader roared with laughter and gesticulated with his bejewelled arm. "Believe me, he is quite harmless," he said, "but escort him from the premises immediately."

    I walked out into the cold night air with a huge sigh of relief. This time I had avoided the trap easily, but I knew I might not be so lucky next time."

    So the only paragraph without an animal seems to me to be the second

  2. You got it, oudeis. It was tough to pick out all the animals from inside the sentences.

    At least, it was tough for me!
