Kouprey One in a Krillion

7 letters · 1 word · ~2s to type · 39 accepted answers on the sheet

Don't name the zoo animal a six-year-old would shout first. We would type Kouprey: One in a Krillion, +100, 7 letters, about 2 seconds on a keyboard. Do not burn the 25 seconds on Kangaroo or Koala — those are Plankton. It is also the One in a Krillion on this sheet, so the rare pick and the typeable pick are the same.

Skip Kangaroo · Koala
