THIS WISEWIT WAS OPEN FOR ... 13 Days + 13:34:00
Get ready for seven stages of species that have just one thing in common ... they are NOT A BOOBY ! They are neither a Red-Footed Booby nor a Blue-Footed Booby. So, no matter how much you want to, don't guess that they're a booby, because they're not.
Each clue will be a series of blank spaces that represent the scientific species name. When you submit your response, guess a letter (for example, "i") and the scientific species name (for example, "Sula Nebouxii"). For every guess of a letter, the blank spaces in the word are either filled in or that letter is eliminated. The member to correctly guess the scientific species name will be the stage winner. Additionally, bonus prizes are available for guessing the common name of the species.
