13 Animals
Can you find 13 animals in this rather curious poem?
A person, as simple we are.
Catch the kid o'er the bridge.
Follow the chief, oxtail soup we like.
Anagram ANPI gives us PAIN, cower under a ridge.

Ram is in anagRAM.

Great teaser by the way.
never thought of nag as an animal. ya had me there.
Pretty good, but pretty easy...
Tougher than it looked to be initially!
I missed nag. I thought a nag was a fussy woman. . .ha ha
btw, I don't think of people as animals, so 'man' didn't compute
The teaser was fun - thanks!

Missed cat. I probably would have gone back and found it, but for some reason I was thinking I only had to find 11, and I thought I had found an extra one with man, and I was gonna leave a comment saying that man is an animal too.
AHh, I HAD FORGOTTEN HOW THREE LETTER WORDS COULD BE INTERESTING, FASCINATING, AND STIMULATING NOT TO MENTION MYSTIFYING.
silly quiz is got 9 then looked at the answer to find fox when i had ox and kid and nag but i admit to completely missing ewe

I did not get ewe ,but I thought sou was a female pig . guess that is not the way to spell it All in all , a very entertaining puzzle.

Hey what about the word person. That would be an animal as well. Hmmm. So i guess we can rename this one 14 animals. Although i'm still not quite sure what a nag is.
Loved it! I got ape, ass, ewe, doe, fox, ox, man, pig, cow, and ram.
Ram is at the end of anagRAM everybody!
well i only missed "nag"... i didn't know that was an animal!

That was cute...not too hard but fun. I didn't know Nag was an animal so I got 12!!!
I, too, only missed nag...For those who were asking what it was, nag is a name for an old worn horse.
Good teaser.
Good teaser.
Yeah!!! I found 10. That was fun!
Good job!!
Good job!!
I found some of them but not all
i didnt really like this one
Imurray, please explain to me how 3 letter words are "mystifying" and "intrigueing"!
Actually, you used the phrase "interesting and stimulating". I hate how you can't see the comments as you post.
I like the idea of this puzzle. It's on the easy side so it doesn't strain the brain too much. I would have liked it a little better if the poem actually made sense.
good one keep them comin
hockey fan, i totally agree!
thanks alot, I write books, for the clarification.
Great teaser!!

Pretty good. I didn't get very many but o well. The poem was pretty weird and I agree that it would have been better if the poem actually made sense. But good job!
i didnt like this one...sry, the poem just didnt make sence and most of the words were kinda not the way you expect
Wow, I think Braingle's made me good at finding words within other words... I found all 13 first time through!! Even nag, and man, and both ox and fox. Before I finished, I was starting to think that maybe I'd be finding more than 13! But then when all was said and done, there were only thirteen, and the same thirteen that you listed in the answers.
And HEY! Today's Friday the 13th!! And it was about 13:13 when I finished the puzzle!! WOOOOT!! Lucky me~!
