Missed Connections: Q.E.D.
Hey, puzzlers! Can you help me out? My petting zoo has been set loose around MIT! I need somebody to put up these lost posters. Fortunately the animals are all well-trained, so they've left us some clues.
 | Have you seen my Alligator? He goes by Frenchie. |
 | Lost: Bull wearing a purple halter top. |
 | Looking for my Cat. Last seen carrying her beige messenger bag. |
 | Missing Dog, probably lost in his purple macbook. |
 | Help my find my Elephant. He should be wearing his maroon brown shirt. |
 | Let me know if you've seen my Frog. She loves being painted by strangers. |
 | I can't find my Gorilla! He never goes anywhere without his large pink binder. |
 | My Horse is missing! Beware: he's an actual monstrosity! |
 | My Iguana was last seen with a blonde eating Chipotle. Let me know if you've seen her! |
