I thought 29 might be broccoli. I get badger from Brock but can't work out the rest.

[mallyh]

broc = badger as you say then coli + east =societal (large group ) minus east =coli very iffy lol

[BlackadderV]

That seems to work. I haven't met the word societal and assumed east was represented just by the letter e.

Thanks to aelmpvm, scorpiojo, mallyh, tilly2, BlackadderV for your answers. They mostly make sense now you see the answers. It's amazing how you don't always see it as an anagram but ones like 16,17,29,36 I don't think I would ever have got them.
Thanks again

Love the societal idea. I wonder if ecoli is not the bug?

[BlackadderV]

You typed 'big'. If this is a misprint for 'bug' then yes, you would be right.
