Where'd you come in the last one? Surely top five with an attitude like that?! No?? 

Also stop being obsessed with me! Gawd!

You chose me as a nemesis.. this is what you get

So the only thing that matters is finishing ahead of you

Our zoo animals had the biggest sheep!

If you said Monkey, Giraffe or Tiger, 1 point!

If you went with the king of the jungle, Lion got you 3 points!

But with a smashing 13 points was our sheep variant, ELEPHANT!

Thanks EN for educating me that Elephants trump Lions in Zoo animal sheep

[nothing]

Dangerous plants split the group more, have made a note to avoid each one...

If you went Oleander, Lily of the Valley or Cactus, you've earned yourself a single point.

Choosing Nettles or Hemlock garnered double, with 2 points.

The top 3, gaining 3, 4 and 5 points respectively are Venus Flytrap, Poison Ivy and Deadly Nightshade!

A nice healthy sheep of 11 points for anyone who said Mont Blanc as a European mountain.

The Alps earned you 3 points, Matterhorn got 2 points. But hard luck if you said Carrantouhill, Olympus and the Pyrenees, our aces here.

Igneous gains glory with a sheep of 7, followed by Granite at 5, Limestone at 3 and Sedimentary at 2.

The aces gave me a great laugh though...

[E.N.]

Ah, I was torn between Ganges and Yangtze, went for the wrong one. Those extra points would have been nice, but I'll take 5th

[Leg End Reject]

I couldn't remember what zoo animal sheeped in the last one!

[nothing]

Day 2 is all things food related!

1. A cake
2. A non-green vegetable 
3. A pasta shape
4. An ingredient in a curry
5. A tasty bird

No doubt, given I got Geodude and Dwayne Johnson for type of rock

[ari101]

Not so bad despite my rock choice, now to actually get Day 2 in this time
