The November 1, 2026 puzzle ran from an American bullfrog at 15 cm to an adult giraffe at 5.2 m — about 35× apart, drawing on animals. The pair furthest apart was round 5: an adult horse is about 1.1× smaller than a concert grand piano.
Answer: Adult Giraffe — 5.2 m. An adult giraffe measures 5.2 m (height), which is almost exactly the same size as the reference, Lugia at 5.2 m.
Adult giraffes commonly stand between 4.5 and 5.5 metres tall.
Common miss: players tend to inflate an adult giraffe when it sits beside Lugia — 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.
