Pod predators crossword clue
26 Across · WSJ Crossword, June 17, 2026 · 5 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Pod predators” is ORCAS. It appears as 26 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of June 17, 2026, a Wednesday puzzle titled “Opposites Attract” by Hunter Murphy, and it fills 5 squares running left to right from row 6, column 3 of the 15×15 grid.
A plural clue takes a plural answer, which is why the entry ends in S. The entry begins with O and ends with S, and contains 2 vowels and 3 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Wednesday puzzles sit mid-week on the difficulty curve, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
