Two-tone predator crossword clue
116 Across · WSJ Crossword, May 16, 2026 · 4 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Two-tone predator” is ORCA. It appears as 116 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of May 16, 2026, a Saturday puzzle titled “F Is For...” by Zhouqin Burnikel, and it fills 4 squares running left to right from row 20, column 7 of the 21×21 grid.
The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with O and ends with A, and contains 2 vowels and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. This weekend puzzle uses the largest grid of the week, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
