I take it that Dog Fish is actually Rock Salmon? My all time favourite chip shop comestible, something you see less of these days.

This is pretty good just spent a very enjoyable 15 minutes googling animals I have never heard of. solenodons are just rats, shame about the Sea Snakes.
All this might come in useful.during Only Connect or Uni Challenge. I do wish Victoria would just shut her face at the end if each show though.

I started by googling dutifully but am now choosing randomly based on name appeal. Will endeavour to improve my research technique by the semis

All this talk of googling, I decided to start.
Did Rabbitfish. Disappointed to see that it looks nothing like a rabbit.
It's put me off googling any more. I can't stand the disappointment. Back to voting for the funny names.

'Most stingrays' is an oddity. It must be all stingrays surely? A stingray is poisonous because of the sting in the tail, so a stingray that doesn't sting is just a ray?
Shame about the Komodo, Komodo Dragon vs Gila Monster would have been a fine deathmatch tie, sounding like something from an episode of the original Japanese Godzilla movies.....:-)
