Animal Crackers Solution
How It Works
Each mashed-up animal is a combination of the names of the animals, using the letters from the portion of the animal shown. The generated words were:
- HAM � (Hippo + cAMel)
- FORK � (wolF + gORilla + Koala)
- PARKA � (elePhant + beAR + KAngaroo)
- SHERRY � (SHEep + giRaffe + kangaRoo + monkeY)
- POPCORN � (hipPO + elePhant + Camel + gORilla + bisoN)
- LINGERIE � (LIon + rhiNo + tiGER + gIraffe + sEal)
Once you have all the words, you order them by length (the animal names on the box are also ordered by length) and do diagonalization to get the answer: HORROR.
