0 Guest Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 Many answers to this. In addition to the above: 1)Panda, only herbivore 2)Rhea, cant fly 3)Chicken, not a mammal 4)Worm, not an insect. group 4 is the odd one odd because: group of invertibrates, all others are vertibrates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Group 1 is the odd one out since they are all mammals. None of the rest of the groups contain all mammals. But they are all, of course, animals.

0 Guest Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 I didn't have a group for fish, so I made sure to compensate by including a few red herrings. But you'll know when you've got it right! So far no-one has... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 only line #2 has one-syllable words as well and all our types of fowl only.Sorry, no, though I'm surprised no-ones got it yet. Oh by the way when I said no correct answers so far obviously some people may have correctly guessed some of the odd ones out, but the right answer for the wrong reason still aint the right answer in my book, when you've got a 1 in 4 chance. Probably goes without saying anyway... Really am going to bed now. Nighty night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 You're all missing something I'm afraid! There's so many ways you can pick an odd one out in each group, or a group that is somehow different to the others, that you'd have to reject most of them as being too arbitrary. Except one... If it carries on like this I might have to leave a hint! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 3rd one is the odd one. 1. All Mammals 2. All Birds 3. Boar, cow, dog all animals. Chicken is a meat 4. All Insects Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was ok till last line Misanthrope or can i cal you ann? All are animals unless ti's be redefined in the last 30 years to exclude insects and hermaphrodites - all reproduce, eat, breath!

0 Guest Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 I'm not saying anyone's wrong exactly, but nobody's got it right yet (or even close). Here's a guideline to help filter things out a bit: You couldn't find the odd group without knowing the odd one out in each group. The two things are interrelated. Octopuppy likes structured puzzles! Good luck... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 akaslickster Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 odd group out is the same group consisting odd critter out? Bat, Rhea, Chicken, worm. This is from a book. So?

Maybe the largest animals are out and they create the odd group. The odd group out is one of the four groups listed. And if it's from a book it's not any book that I've read.

0 Guest Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 I can't use spoilers. Sorry. Group 1- Bat, not of the order carnivora Group 2- Rhea, can't fly Group 3- Chicken, not a mammal Group 4- Worm, not an insect Group 2 is the odd one out because it is the only one in which the odd critter out is not determined by classification.
