Animal Riddle

There’s lots of me at Thanksgiving

But you don’t want me to be wasted

Because my meat’s really juicy

Just so long as I have been basted

• Chicken

• Duck

• Turkey

• Goose

One of these is Cupid

But it doesn’t have a bow

Instead it pulls a sleigh

Through the air and lands on snow

• Cow

• Reindeer

• Horse

• Donkey

You might be called this animal

If someone thinks that you’re afraid

This is something that you might eat

As well as its eggs that it laid

• Duck

• Turkey

• Cat

• Chicken

This provides meat that you would eat

When breakfast you are makin’

A chicken is what gives the eggs

And this is what gives bacon

• Pig

• Cow

• Goat

• Sheep

My wings are used as flippers

So in water I can flow

Sometimes when on land I slide

On my belly in the snow

• Swan

• Penguin

• Chicken

• Duck

I am known as a king

The jungle’s where I reign

It is hard to tame me

And I have a large mane

• Tiger

• Panther

• Elephant

• Lion

I travel very slowly

When gliding along the ground

Maybe my shell weighs me down

In your garden I am found

• Turtle

• Butterfly

• Snail

• Sloth

I like to use my long tongue

To eat leaves from tops of trees

I don’t have to climb up though

With my long neck it’s a breeze

• Giraffe

• Horse

• Elephant

• Deer

Some types slither on the ground

And some can live up in the trees

Adders, vipers and cobras

What kind of animals are these?

• Snake

• Worm

• Snail

• Ant

I’m an animal you might love

But I’m too big to be your pet

I have an extremely long trunk

And it’s said I never forget

• Lion

• Tiger

• Hippo

• Elephant
