Crossword puzzles about animals, free to play online on your phone or computer. Read a clue, tap a square and type the answer with the keyboard under the grid — every answer is an animal, from fox to snow leopard. Pick a 5-answer mini, an easy or a hard grid, solve the daily crossword with everyone else, make your own crossword or print any of them.
A crossword rewards an order: start with the answers you are sure of, then let every crossing square give letters to the next.
New to crosswords? Each numbered answer has a clue in the Across or Down list. Tap a square of the answer, type the animal, and the letters land along the answer; a square where two answers cross belongs to both.
Before your next move
Typing a guess over a crossing letter you were sure of breaks two answers at once.
Revealing the whole grid ends the crossword without a win: check one answer first.
