Elephant - ANOTHER fun headwrecking variation of sheep :D

I wanted to change an answer in the last game, chose fekin chess as my 'sport' :rolleyes:. Was gonna change it to gymnastics thinking it was definitely a SHEEP. Turns out it would have just been another ace!

They are so obvious after they are revealed

Purg is not the only one to make multiple resubmissions. I've got more repeat PMs in this game so far than all the other ones
