Animals & Living Things
Animals are the ultimate weight-guessing trap. They move, they're fluffy, and none of them ever sits on a bathroom scale for you. Fur adds imaginary kilograms, and small dense animals — a guinea pig is mostly muscle — fool almost everyone in the other direction.
The spread in this category is enormous: from a hummingbird lighter than a coin to farm animals that outweigh a motorcycle. If you can guess animals well, you can guess anything.
