AlexRi3er Mar 08, 2009	What if a lizard dropped its tail in defense to confuse the predator, and then drank? Good teaser
jaycr Feb 19, 2012	Oh my goodness, I fell for this one...
cutebug Feb 19, 2012	I'm sorry but I this one was pretty dumb.
gaylewolf Feb 19, 2012	I LOVED that puzzle. I think it was funny and I think every one falls for it! Of course I had no clue, but it was a trick question, and just meant as a joke! Good one - thanks! Started my day off on a bright note!
HABS2933 Feb 19, 2012	I also did not care for this teaser. As stated above, there are lots of animals that have no tails. A human is part of the Animal Kingdom, and I have yet to see any with tails. Also, in my opinion anyway, this is more of riddle than trick question and should have been in that category.
GWeb64 Feb 19, 2012	what about the animals that don't have tails?
spikethru4 Feb 19, 2012	I see the pedants are out in force. The answer is 'all animals that have a tail'.
MajorAlan Feb 19, 2012	This is as bad as the question: What month has 28 days? They all do!
auntiesis Feb 19, 2012	I got this one before finishing reading it. I guess that raising 3 sons you get to hear many variations of this joke.
JQPublic Feb 20, 2012	Humans, chimps, gorillas, orang-utans... none of them have tails. Good teaser still.
