I wonder if everyone will keep trying? Soooo sorry for the initially incorrect Nudge #1

Got it, but the answer doesn't seem to fit the meta prompt all that well.

SSSolved! Even though I didn't see "more to the mechanism" until I went back after browsing the comments.

Traveling today so late to it, but sssolved after initially making it way too hard. Nnnice one, Doctor T!

Sssolved - thanks for the puzzle!

I had the same thought. That alone delayed me quite a bit.

Damn, I overcomplicated that! I had the first step quickly, and then....nothing! Good one, and how true! Thanks, Dr T!

YES! The half century mark.

Thank you!

I am remiss!

Another Muggle has joined the drinking game!

EDIT - Wrong puzzle Tom, this should be "another Muggle got it all together!"

REVEAL DAY!

This was a fun puzzle to put together and I thank Cap'N Rick for giving me the opportunity to make a puzzle for this very special day. A lot of people guessed it from the prompt and the posting day, I mean it was posted on Mother's Day. Some thought it was just the preponderance of possible mothers (female animals) and the answer was inferred.

An interesting solve left out DUCK (which is actually the name for the female duck, the male is a drake) and anagrammed the other letters which formed MENSCH and certainly Mom's are all mensches, but that was not THE solve; the actual solve is:
Oh, and if anybody was wondering what exactly the graphic was supposed to be, here it is "unscrambled"
