Pinniped
This was a question in today's newspaper quiz. What animals constitute pinnipeds? ...peds indicates that they have distinctive feet, but pinni... threw me. Having looked at the answer, I presume that pinni and fins are from the same root, but not one unfortunately, that I am familiar with.
