Don't name the zoo animal a six-year-old would shout first. We would type Blackbuck: Deep Cut, +85, 9 letters, about 2 seconds on a keyboard. Do not burn the 25 seconds on Cheetah, Horse, or Lion — those are Plankton. The trench answer is Brazilian free-tailed bat (+100), but only take it if you can spell it cold.
Trench spelling, only if you already know it: Brazilian free-tailed bat +100
