mc5 - AVMA Take 2

Yes, it's another round of that classic guessing game - Animal, Vegetable, Mineral, Abstract [or any combination thereof]. This effort - '03/'04 should address any queries, but then again, may just serve to confuse and baffle which some might say is the point of the game. Patience, integrity and a decent search engine may be useful ....

I'm taking this to be ABSTRACT with ANIMAL CONNECTIONS, unless the answer is dog leads.

Metaphorical shoe-leather?

Raak

[INJ] Not a human construct, and not abstract either.
[Projoy] Not metaphorical shoe-leather.

ImNotJohn

umbilical cords?

struggling to get into this

Raak

[INJ] Not umbilical cords (those would definitely be Animal).
To make the initial words more explicit, this thing is neither Animal, nor Vegetable, nor Mineral, nor Abstract, but has Animal connections.
