I like camel, but I might be thinking of my local zoo, which briefly offered camel rides when I was a kid. Another possibility is giraffe, but I am certain that I am just grabbing that from animal crackers. My official vote at this point is camel ---

I’m pretty sure a camel is in the animal cracker box, too. Seems like I remember a camel in the Barnum & Bailey circus parade around the ring… ---

I’m thinking… Zebra, leopard, camel Gosh…this will be hard to come to a consensus on. I haven’t been to the circus in YEARS! ---

[QUOTE=twickster] **What Exit?** – are we allowed to ask if zebras are the same thing as horses? [/QUOTE] I think you are allowed to ask. If Zebra was the same as Horses, I would have posted Horses and other Equines. So for my list it is not the same. BTW: The earlier post were a player guessed and answer already on the board. I was correct to issue a strike, wasn’t I? ---

[/QUOTE] > **[Bert's Family Feud](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bert's_Family_Feud)** > > Bert's Family Feud was an Australian game show remake based on the American show of the same name. The series was produced by Grundy Television in conjunction with FremantleMedia. It was broadcast on the Nine Network and hosted by Bert Newton. The title refers to host Bert Newton as the show intended to feature celebrities and their families as contestants. A principal motivation for establishing the show was that the Nine Network had the highest-rated Australian television news service for man... seems to agree with you “Each family member has an opportunity to give his/her own answers. If the answer they give does not appear on the board, repeat an answer on the board, or takes too long to think of a possible answer on the board, they earn an unwanted strike” ---

[QUOTE=Struan] Not that you’re asking me, but yes you were correct. [/QUOTE] Yeah, I would have also. And thanks for the zebra info – that’s what I thought, but I wanted to make sure. Okay – time for this little cowgirl to head home – if we’re ready to guess, my vote is for camel, though if we do zebra I’m good with that too. I’ll be back in a few hours to see what happens!
