The grey wolf (plural wolves) is the largest wild dog. It lives and hunts in packs, with the whole pack helping with the care of cubs.

2. Re-arrange the letters in 'steak' to get a weapon that can be used against vampires.

3. Re-arrange the letters in 'steal' to get something we write on.

Slate is a harder rock formed when heat and pressure is applied to shale. It is also used in pool tables. We should, of course, never steal.

Answer: plum

A plum is a stonefruit, like cherries, peaches and apricots.

5. Re-arrange the letters in 'kinks' to get a type of lizard.

Answer: skink

If you see a lizard sunning itself in your garden, it is very likely a skink. Usually small and harmless, it is possibly waiting for an insect to come near.

6. Re-arrange the letters in 'heart' to get a planet.

Answer: Earth

The Earth, our very own planet, is third from the Sun. The heart pumps blood around our bodies. So two important words for us.

Answer: Salem

Salem is the capital of Oregon. Another Salem in Massachusetts was the scene of witch trials.

A pear is a juicy fruit of 'Twelve Days of Christmas' fame. Interestingly, it is also a homophone of 'pare', having the same sound. We pare (peel) a potato.

Answer: table

Sheep bleat. When we say a person bleats, we mean complains. Table and chairs?
