Things are starting to get more tight, and as we close in on animal families, we will soon begin to decide between individual species. Please note that if you have not taken part in this challenge prior to today, you are still welcome to join in at anytime! Today’s matchup involves choosing one from each of the two groups! Just to clarify, there is only one winner in each group for today that will move on!

Chiroptera (bats)
Cetaceans (whales, dolphins, porpoises)
Pinnipeds (seals, sea lions, walruses)

Mustelids (mink, stoat, long-tailed weasels, fishers, martens, otters, badgers, wolverines)
Mephitidae (skunks)
Marsupials (possums)

Cetaceans (whales, dolphins, porpoises)

Mustelids (I’m on team wolverine)

Marsupialia

Although there was only supposed to be two families today, we had a tie, so there will be three groups today! The winning group of the three will be broken down into individual species so that we can narrow things down to a single animal! So, today’s matchup: (choose one from the single group)

Chiroptera (bats)
Mustelids (mink, stoats, long-tailed weasels, ferrets, badgers, wolverines, otters, fishers, martens)
Cetaceans (whales, dolphins, porpoises)

I would definitely find it hard to choose between mustelids and cetaceans!

If anyone else wants to vote that would be great, since we do have a tie right now!

Unfortunately, we still have a tie for today, so we are pushing the family bracket out one more day! Today is the final day before we move to individual species. Today’s matchup: (Choose one from the group!)
