It was backwards, though, wasn't it?

Yes, but in the end, you used a forward word :)

Fair point.

Hmmmm. What kind of fish could it be other than carp, cod, pike, tuna, shark, catfish, dogfish? cos i tried all them :)

Maybe that is what was meant....

Perhaps it's time to get out a bestiary and try every entry :lol: But I think that's been thought to death. I'm not convinced it's an animal at all, at least not in the actual picture.

Nicky's already been through that bestiary I think! :D

I tried political, animation, cartoonist (animal) as he was a cartoonist - in the sense of "he was that rare kind of animal, a cartoonist" .. and rara avis !

That sounds too clever for this riddle.

I guess!

So just tried hungry and maneating!

It must be the fish surely ::Pfffff::

I'm guessing they think there's a non-human mammal in there somewhere

Right, this is silly. I doubt the solution is very interesting. Good luck Nicky - if it's not a misspelled animal name let me know and perhaps it will pique my interest again. :)

I tried fishhead because the birds head is the fish and the rest of it is the island but still nothing :lol:

Damn, who deleted my post with the answer in? It must have been a moderator!

Since then I've had a blow to the head (as an indirect result of the egg from D11 :D) and have totally forgotten it!

Back to square one :D
