Almost every corner of the globe is home to a wide array of different organisms. But despite this diversity, there are groups of animals that share the most unlikely of similarities. Sticking to the UK, each week for 12 weeks I will test your skills in identifying 12 different organisms that share one characteristic. They can be a plant or a fungi, a bird or a mammal, a fish or an insect!MAGICAL MYSTERY QUIZ#6Clue: Always on time.
The clue had me thinking and all that came to mind at the moment is the Death Watch Beetle, using the "Watch" to always be on time? I know its a wood boring beetle and very destructive does that fit the pattern though?
