I like Zebras when they move forming a group protecting their babies! I can reply all the questions asked if i read a publication on Zebra! But it will be cheating. So I should not do it. Thanks for this informative blog. Waiting for more information from you soon. Have a pleasant time,MLD.
Wish you all the best and regards too. look.

Looklook, hello,

Thank you for your visit and for you nice comments. Sorry, I couldn't respond earlier due to some tiredness. Am glad reading from you on here and I appreciate your above opinion. As I've mentioned in my above text, it's only a game for amusement in a different way. Am not here to grade the intelligence of anyone on this blog but simply to indicate the correct answers chosen from above. I like to diversify my blogs, so as it won't be the same style all the time. It depends on one's choice as well.
It seems no one wants to play the game/puzzles, so I'll just reply according to the posted comments. I thought it would be fun to read to participate in the game, whatever the answers may be but it seems it is taken as a test in whichever way one might have thought, rather than a simple game. I was going to give all the correct answers, just as a matter of courtesy afterwards but I feel it's not necessary and as I was going to post another whole blog on Zebras which I intended to post just after this one and which I have already drafted, but I won't it now.
However Looklook, I thank you again and hope reading from you in the future, I prefer to take a break for some time. MBN, I wish you all my best, keep well, enjoy your time and be happy.
My kind regards to you.
Lisa,
