Obvious after a while but Disney fish do have eyelids, so beware!
Yeah, I was upset that they took that fact before I could get this one on, but oh well.
Easy, but good...My dog always beats me in staring contests, so go Jimmy!
It is just like me and my fish ,Lisley,. Good one!

Two seconds tops!
SOOOOOO EASY
Yes, very easy. There are other animals that could have beaten him but few of them are typical pets. I thought it was good even though it was so easy.
I agree with Warrior poet on all accounts - it was easy, but there are other animals that could have beaten him, but usually a licence is needed to own them, and not many people do.

Lots of land animals also have no eye lids such as a lot of diffirent reptilians
Yeah some don't have eyelids, but doesn't mean they couldn't lose. Those reptiles that u said don't have eyelids, sure they don't, but how do they wet their eyes? With their toungues, thus counting that, as a blink. Good point tho
you are a complete retard snakes are the answer stupid gosh retard go back to your mental class
oh wow, smartsy, you dont seem very nice
yeah, that was super easy but it was cute!

Even if you didn't know your animals the hint would give you the answer.A complete givaway.
snakes stare for all their lives so stop it mental
Ok, so obviously there are a few other answers that would have worked on this teaser, but that's no reason to get nasty about it.
Let's just enjoy the teaser instead of fighting about it, okay?
Anyway, good teaser.

u might be unstumpable but your teasers are not.
I thought it was a breath holding contest.

I like the hint....
