thought of pug as well - though one could argue that is a breed - also "ray" as in several species of flat bodied fish, like the manta ray, sting ray and devil ray

Geez - this was a challenge. I'll have to look up Eft, Tit, Tui. Good one!

How about nits? I guess they go by lice in some parts of the world, but I thought nit was a common enough name for them. Surely more common than an eft or kob.

Cur (vernacular for dog) and fry (baby fish) are a couple more.

ant, bee, fly, (and even bug) are insects and are NOT animals, by definition.

Yes they are. Insects are part of the animal kingdom.

americanosiris513, "ant, bee, fly, (and even bug) are insects and are NOT animals, by definition." Seriously? So if they're not animals what does that make them? Plants?

good quiz! you may want to remove the COD answer because there is no such thing as a cod fish. COD is an acronym for "Catch of the Day." Unless there is another cod you are referring to. food for thought

Bug?!? Are you kidding? Use dab instead.
