Put on your safari gear and see if you can hunt down the animals hiding in the answers to these clues. All animals are three letters long and can be seen consecutively and in the proper order within the answer word. Can you find them?
Now, where did I put that hat?
-1. a hardware fastener (7) -2. timid (6) -3. the center post of a winding staircase (5) -4. a movie genre (5) -5. a chicken (6) -6. a thief (7) -7. a garden flower (8) -8. a kickback (6) -9. a water valve (6) -10. a museum employee (7) -11. outdated (5) -12. a type of wood (8) -13. write out of the will (6)
Did you ever stop to think and then forget to start again?

Thanks, Curly. The animal words can be seen complete within the answer word without the need for anagramming as in Gail's answer "diSOWn" Gail

I should read the instructions more carefully.

I change all my passwords to "incorrect". So whenever I forget, it says, "your password is incorrect".
