The October 5, 2026 puzzle ran from an American bullfrog at 15 cm to an adult horse at 2.4 m — about 16× apart, drawing on animals. The pair furthest apart was round 1: a domestic cat is 1.3× as big as a large pizza.
Answer: Domestic Cat — 46 cm. A domestic cat measures 46 cm (length / span), which is 1.3× as big as the reference, a large pizza at 35.6 cm.
A cat’s body is about 46 cm long before its tail is counted.
Common miss: players tend to compress a domestic cat when it sits beside a large pizza — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: Emperor Penguin — 1.1 m. An emperor penguin measures 1.1 m (height), which is 1.3× as big as the reference, a dining chair at 90 cm.
The tallest living penguin reaches roughly 1.15 metres.
Common miss: players tend to compress an emperor penguin when it sits beside a dining chair — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: Grizzly Bear — 2 m. A grizzly bear measures 2 m (length / span), which is about 1.2× smaller than the reference, an adult horse at 2.4 m.
A grizzly can measure about two metres from nose to rump.
Common miss: players tend to inflate a grizzly bear when it sits beside an adult horse — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: Adult Horse — 2.4 m. An adult horse measures 2.4 m (length / span), which is about 1.1× smaller than the reference, a concert grand piano at 2.7 m.
A riding horse is roughly as long as a dairy cow.
Common miss: players tend to inflate an adult horse when it sits beside a concert grand piano — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: American Bullfrog — 15 cm. An American bullfrog measures 15 cm (length / span), which is almost exactly the same size as the reference, a hot dog at 15 cm.
A large bullfrog can be almost as long as a modern phone.
Common miss: players tend to inflate an American bullfrog when it sits beside a hot dog — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
