Art's Wall (a Uhcapps guessing game)

Post by Tod1d »

One of my friends in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan is a big hunter / trapper. He has a wall of furs in the entryway to his house that represents
every animal he's trapped, with the exception of Wolf & Pine Marten, and one fish.
I thought it might be a fun "Guessing Game" to identify the species hanging on Art's Wall.

Click on the link below, and enter your guesses in the text fields provided.

Answers are English, mostly one word*, are not case sensitive, but spelling is important.

* One animal has 2 possible answers (commonly referred to by 2 names), and one answer requires 2 words (common species name & fur variation)

One entry per person. (You must be a uhcapps member to participate)

HINTS: (from above)
  • "Upper Peninsula of Michigan" (No European variations ;) )
    "with the exception of Wolf & Pine Marten" (These are not on the wall. He has trapped them, just hasn't got around to having them tanned yet.)
    The last 4 are in theHunter. (the rest are not)
Prizes:
1st Correct Entry: 3000 em$
2nd Correct Entry: 2000 em$
3rd Correct Entry: 1000 em$

The bad news; I stupidly hit my Enter key after entering one guess and it submitted. :(

The good news; It was incorrect, so now I don't have to bash my head against Google all night trying to figure out the rest. :D

Thanks for the challenge Tod1d! It's a really neat and fun idea, can't wait to see the answers! Good luck, all!

Ummm, it's not closed. Currently the close date is set at Nov 1st, but I can bump that up if necessary.

This is a very neat idea but I have to confess I am stumped at several of them. I can name probably 1/2 of them off the top of my head (9 in fact according to the score sheet). Unfortunately I am too stubborn to research them.

#7, where in the world did he manage to trap a tribble?

I considered making it multiple choice, but I think that would make it way too easy.

Looking at the answers, all of the correct answers have been guessed. Just not all on the same entry, and a few on the wrong species.

I reiterated a couple hints from the opening paragraph, and added one.

I think I got 13 right?? DAMN. I had a lot more than 2 with two words, though, I think! And I'm not sure which one needed a fur variation... I have a suspicion but I wasn't sure if it wasn't just sun fading :lol:

Ummm, it was closed for two days and now it's not. Wish I had taken a screenshot but I know what I saw, more than once, over the past two days.
