But as an animal, it lives in a group with others.

Bravo on tissue paper, haha, I do enjoy this game but can't say I'm a natural at it.

@Vignoble Q6: is it something that people eat?

Vignoble · 31/12/2024 06:11

No (Q6)

[there may be a delay in answering further, as I have an outpatient appointment this AM]

HarpQuartet · 31/12/2024 06:19

@Vignoble roger that, and hoping it goes well.

[Back now, thanks to our wonderful NHS. Unscheduled but necessary outpatients visit, waited 8 minutes only. Must be a record for me. The car park spaces are wide, which is an added bonus. In, out, done.]

I will give another clue. There are mixed views on whether owning the subject matter should be made illegal.

Good morning! And I'm glad your appointment went well.

So I'm going to guess mink stole.

Hmm. I don't want to waste a question!
So it's an animal derived product, not fur or skin.

Would I be likely to have it at home?

OP posts:
Vignoble · 31/12/2024 10:33

Very unlikely, but not impossible.

Stuffed animal taxidermy!

stargazerlil · 31/12/2024 14:17

Antlers also under taxidermy😀

stargazerlil · 31/12/2024 14:20

Product can you eat it?

Vignoble · 31/12/2024 15:41

Stuffed animal taxidermy! Including Antlers.

No (9)

Product can you eat it?

No (10). At least it is not a foodstuff, in the same way oak leaves are not food, but you could eat one. That is not what it is known for.

Two more clues will follow at 4pm.
