Name That Disney Animal: 10s Blitz! (2)

[A] Kangaroo | Roo bounces on biology. Kangaroo tendons store elastic energy, and that forward‑only hop is why they became a national emblem for momentum.

[D] Orangutan | King Louie wants fire, but orangutans already engineer. They weave new leaf‑nests nightly and swing on arms that span wider than most doorways.

[C] Deer | Bambi’s wide‑angle gaze is true deer design. Antlers are bone grown and shed yearly, though not for moms—sorry, childhood headcanon.

[A] Pelican | Nigel’s beak is a fishing net. Pelican throat pouches scoop water and fish, then drain; the pouch isn’t storage, it’s gear.

[A] Tyrannosaurus Rex | Rex frets, but his namesake bit hard. T. rex jaws crushed bone, while those small arms likely gripped prey—clumsy toy, terrifying blueprint.

[B] Grasshopper | Hopper bullies with springs. Grasshopper legs preload energy in tendons, launching hops that leave ants—and union talks—two beats behind.

[C] Hyena | Shenzi runs a matriarchy. Spotted hyenas hunt cooperatively, crack bones for marrow, and keep the boys in line with size and attitude.

[D] Whale | Monstro roars like thunder, but real whales whisper far. Low‑frequency calls travel miles, and baleen filters dinner like living combs.

[A] Sea Turtle | Crush vibes ancient. Sea turtles imprint on birth beaches and navigate by Earth’s magnetic field, which makes “totally” sound like deep time.

[B] Elephant | Dumbo’s trunk packs thousands of muscles. Elephants show mirror self‑recognition and careful grief, which reframes a circus act as something gentler.

[C] Ant | Flik’s big ideas echo ant logistics. Antennae handle smell and touch while colonies split jobs, turning chaos into tidy harvest.

[C] Cat | Duchess purrs with science. Domestic cats evolved from Near Eastern wildcats; slow blinks signal trust and their purr frequencies may aid bone healing.

[A] Rat | Remy’s palate rides rat hardware. Excellent olfaction, smart problem‑solving, and heat‑exchange tails keep the chef steady while the soup experiments.

[D] Clownfish | Nemo’s family drama checks out. Clownfish live in anemones and can change sex when hierarchy shifts; nature wrote that twist before Pixar.

[C] Gorilla | Kala’s strength is caretaker power. Gorilla silverbacks mediate fights, but mothers build calm; chest beats are showpieces, not guaranteed throwdowns.

[B] Skunk | Flower warns before chemistry. Skunks raise tails and flash stripes, then spray sulfur compounds; tomato juice doesn’t neutralize, oxidation does.

[D] Hummingbird | Flit flies like a heartbeat. Hummingbirds hover with figure‑eight wingbeats and can enter torpor at night, a rechargeable mode for tiny heroes.

[C] Bear | Baloo coasts on bear biology. Winter slow‑downs vary by species; cubs nurse through den months while mom barely wakes—ultimate “bare necessities.”

[A] Monkey | Abu’s hands move faster than ethics. Many monkeys lack prehensile tails, so fingers do the work—perfect for swiping jewels between musical cues.

[A] Donkey | Eeyore isn’t stubborn; he’s cautious. Donkeys memorize routes and water, refusing unsafe footing. Makes sense when your house blows away twice a week.
