To find the hidden words, we need to look for the words listed at the bottom inside the letter grid. The words can be written horizontally (left to right), vertically (top to bottom), or sometimes backwards and diagonally.

Here is the step-by-step search for each word:

1. LIZARD: Look at the first row. Starting from the 5th letter, it spells I L A Z S D. Wait, let's look closer. Row 1 is `W W W M I L A Z S D`. If we start at the 'L' (6th letter) and go right, we get `L A Z S D`. That's not quite it. Let's look at Row 4: `B Z A F R M E B K E`. No. Let's look at Row 1 again. Ah, look at columns.
* Let's re-examine Row 1: `W W W M I L A Z S D`. There is "LAZS".
* Let's check vertical columns. Column 2 starts with `W Y R Z V N O I J J`.
* Let's check Row 4 again: `B Z A F R M E B K E`.
* Let's look for LIZARD specifically.
* Row 1 has `I L A Z`.
* Let's look at Row 3: `P R W A J B Q O O O`.
* Let's look at Row 4: `B Z A F R M E B K E`.
* Let's look at Row 5: `R V G Z K A F T Y I`.
* Let's look at Row 6: `M N O O I L U O B O`.
* Let's look at Row 7: `X O D Q N L V W T W`.
* Let's look at Row 8: `L I O G O R F O L C`. Here is L I O G O R. No.
* Let's look diagonally? Or maybe I missed a simple horizontal one.
* Let's look at Row 1 again: `W W W M I L A Z S D`. The letters `L I Z A R D` are not there in order.
* Let's look at Column 6 (starting with L in Row 1): `L W Q M A L L R R U`. No.
* Let's look at Column 5 (starting with I in Row 1): `I G J R K I N O V E`. No.
* Let's look at ZOO. Row 6 has `O O`. Row 3 ends in `O O O`.
* Let's look at FROG. Row 8 is `L I O G O R F O L C`. If you read backwards from the 'R', it is `R F O...`. No. But wait, look at Row 8: `... O R F ...`. If we read right-to-left starting at F? `F R O G`. Yes! In Row 8, letters 7-10 are `F O L C`. Letters 5-8 are `O R F O`. Letters 6-9 are `R F O L`.
* Let's re-read Row 8 carefully: `L I O G O R F O L C`.
* Indices: 1:L, 2:I, 3:O, 4:G, 5:O, 6:R, 7:F, 8:O, 9:L, 10:C.
* Is FROG there? Read backwards from index 7? `F`, `R` (index 6), `O` (index 5), `G` (index 4). Yes! FROG is spelled backwards in Row 8 (columns 7 to 4).

2. FARM: Look at Row 4: `B Z A F R M E B K E`. Letters 4-7 are `F R M E`. Close.
* Look at Row 5: `R V G Z K A F T Y I`.
* Look at Column 4? `M Y A F Z O Q G S O`.
* Look at Column 5? `I G J R K I N O V E`.
* Look at Row 4 again. `A F R M`.
* Let's look for FARM vertically.
* Column 6: `L W Q M A L L R R U`.
* Column 7: `A S B E F U V F Z W`.
* Column 8: `Z O O K T O W O R U`.
* Let's look at Row 9: `H J L S V Z R R X D`.
* Let's look at Row 10: `V J K O E W U G E F`.
* Let's re-scan for FARM.
* Row 4: `B Z A F R M E...`. It has `F R M`. Where is the A? Before the F. `A F R M`. Not FARM.
* Let's look at Column 4: `M, Y, A, F, Z, O, Q, G, S, O`. No.
* Let's look at Column 5: `I, G, J, R, K, I, N, O, V, E`. No.
* Let's look at Column 6: `L, W, Q, M, A, L, L, R, R, U`. No.
* Let's look at Column 7: `A, S, B, E, F, U, V, F, Z, W`.
* Row 5 Col 7 is `F`. Row 6 Col 7 is `U`.
* Let's look at Column 8: `Z, O, O, K, T, O, W, O, R, U`.
* Let's look at Column 9: `S, H, O, E, Y, B, T, L, X, E`.
* Let's look at Column 10: `D, H, O, E, I, O, W, C, D, F`.
* Maybe FARM is diagonal?
* Let's look at Row 5: `R V G Z K A F T Y I`.
* Let's look at Row 4: `B Z A F R M E B K E`.
* Wait, look at Row 4 again. `A F R M`. If I read it backwards? `M R F A`. No.
* Let's look at MOOSE.
* Row 6: `M N O O I L U O B O`. Starts with M. Then N.
* Column 1: `W D P B R M X L H V`.
* Column 2: `W Y R Z V N O I J J`.
* Let's look at OWL.
* Row 8: `L I O G O R F O L C`. Has `O W L`? No W.
* Row 7: `X O D Q N L V W T W`. Has `O`, `W`.
* Row 10: `V J K O E W U G E F`. Has `O`, `W`.
* Let's look at DOG.
* Row 7: `X O D ...`.
* Row 10: `... G E F`.
* Let's look at LAMB.
* Row 1: `... M I L ...`. Backwards `L I M`.
* Row 8: `L I ...`.
* Let's restart and be very systematic.

Word List: LAMB, LIZARD, ZOO, DOG, FROG, FARM, MOOSE, OWL.

Search:

1. LIZARD:
* Row 1: `W W W M I L A Z S D`.
* Look at letters 5-10: `I L A Z S D`. This contains `L A Z`.
* Is it vertical?
* Col 6 (starts with L): `L W Q M A L L R R U`.
* Col 5 (starts with I): `I G J R K I N O V E`.
* Col 7 (starts with A): `A S B E F U V F Z W`.
* Col 8 (starts with Z): `Z O O K T O W O R U`.
* Col 9 (starts with S): `S H O E Y B T L X E`.
* Col 10 (starts with D): `D H O E I O W C D F`.
* Let's check diagonals starting at Row 1 Col 6 (L).
* Down-Right: L(1,6), Q(2,7)... No.
* Down-Left: L(1,6), Y(2,5)... No.
* Let's check Row 4: `B Z A F R M E B K E`.
* Let's check Row 5: `R V G Z K A F T Y I`.
* Let's check Row 6: `M N O O I L U O B O`.
* Let's check Row 7: `X O D Q N L V W T W`.
* Let's check Row 8: `L I O G O R F O L C`.
* Let's check Row 9: `H J L S V Z R R X D`.
* Let's check Row 10: `V J K O E W U G E F`.
* Maybe LIZARD is in Column 2? `W Y R Z V N O I J J`. No.
* Maybe Column 4? `M Y A F Z O Q G S O`. No.
* Maybe Column 8? `Z O O K T O W O R U`.
* Let's look at ZOO.
* Row 3 ends with `Q O O O`. There is ZOO? No, just OOO.
* Row 6 has `O O`.
* Column 8 starts with `Z`. Row 1 Col 8 is `Z`. Row 2 Col 8 is `O`. Row 3 Col 8 is `O`.
* So, Column 8, Rows 1-3 spells ZOO. (Z-O-O). Found one!

2. FROG:
* We found this earlier. Row 8: `L I O G O R F O L C`.
* Reading backwards from column 7 to 4: F (col 7), R (col 6), O (col 5), G (col 4).
