NYT Strands today (game #111) – the answers
The answers to today’s Strands, game #111, are…
- OPOSSUM
- SKUNK
- COYOTE
- AARDVARK
- LEOPARD
- WOMBAT
- SPANGRAM: NOCTURNAL
- My rating: Easy
- My score: Perfect
Other than the fact that I got a little hung up on urban night creatures, looking in vain for the likes of FOX and BADGER, this was another fairly easy Strands puzzle. I didn’t necessarily know that AARDVARKs and WOMBATs are nocturnal, but SKUNK, OPPOSUM and COYOTE were all easy, meaning I solved this one with no real problems.
