After you've written them all down you should be able to find an animal hidden vertically in the words. What is the hidden word?

Here's an example using only seven words:

If you had these words for your answers you would line them up like this (except more aligned):

G O R I L L A
H Y E N A
M U L E
C A M E L
W H A L E
R A T S N A K E
T I G E R

The hidden word in this case would be "eel" so that would be the correct answer.

Answer: (One word that has 9 letters.)
