3 - sluggish snails (lowest score) >:(,
1 - ambling armadillo (next lowest score) :(,
1 - bobbing bobcat (middle score) :).

I got my best score after I switched to using my middle finger on the mouse instead of my index finger. Go figure ???.

That's impressive, Warbird. Good plan to quit while you're ahead :D. I figure the cutoff between Bobbing Bobcat and Rocketing Rabbit is 0.2 seconds.

Best overall score I managed before I quit was 0.229 seconds. I actually managed to get one sheep at 0.000 seconds!! That was a complete fluke -- my finger twitched at the very same instant a sheep appeared. Too bad my other 4 scores were terrible on that round>:(.

Mostly sluggish snail best was bobbing bobcat at 0.2608 seconds, no consistency at all the same degree of consistency as my golf swing :(
