Guess the species #6

[LaughingDove]

Number 4 looks like it could be a Swinhoe's striped squirrels or possibly Himalayan striped squirrel.

 

[LaughingDove]

Number 2 looks like some sort of rabbit or hare

 

[LaughingDove]

For number 5- fossa???

 

[Chlidonias]

I'm not sure of number one yet, but here's what i think for the others:

2) Mountain Hare
3) Sika
4) Swinhoe's Striped Squirrel
5) Madagascan Ring-tailed Mongoose

 

[Chlidonias]

number one isn't a Great Grey Shrike is it?

 

[Norwegian moose]

Number 1: Wagtail species?
Number 2: Mountain hare
Number 3: Rusa deer
Number 4: Himalayan striped squirrel
Number 5: Durels vontsira

 

[gentle lemur]

1 Male wheatear
2 Lesser splodge (pretending to be a mountain hare)
3 Hog deer
4 Striped thingy
5 Red-bellied TLD favourite

As you may have realised, I'm guessing after #1

[lintworm]

1. Northern wheatear
2. Mountain hare
3. Hog deer
4. Tamiops macclellandii
5. Ring-tailed vontsira

 

[Maguari]

1. Northern wheatear
2. Mountain hare
3. Hog deer
4. Tamiops macclellandii
5. Ring-tailed vontsira

And we have a winner!

Northern Wheatear wild at Stanage (Derbyshire), Mountain Hare wild at Bleaklow (also Derbyshire), Hog Deer at Whipsnade, Himalayan Striped Squirrel at Tierpark Berlin, Ring-tailed Vontsira(/Mongoose) at Zoo Berlin.

Will try to post the full versions of the three crops later on when I'm home.

Over to you lintworm!

These 5 should not be too difficult, they are at least all captive animals

 

[DesertRhino150]

1. No idea - looks like some sort of fish
2. Wattled crane
3. Striped hyena
4. Reticulated python
5. Black lemur

 

[ThylacineAlive]

I go to bed for a few hours and miss an entire round!

Being as my guessing more or less line up with desertrhino all I can add is I think 1 is a lungfish of some sort. I'm going to say West African but maybe African Slender.

Sorry for offtopic, but my question is related to this thread. Whether there is a dictionary/catalogue when I can find names of different animals in Latin. English and two or three more languages? I have such dictionary (Latin, Russian, English, German, French), but it was compiled more than 20 years ago, and probably contains errors.

 

[Maguari]

My first thoughts are pretty much in line with DR as well:

1. Electric Eel (?)
2. Wattled Crane
3. Striped Hyaena
4. Reticulated Python
5. Black Lemur (not sure if this could be another Eulemur...)

 

[Maguari]

Just for the record, the full versions of the three cropped animals from the last round:

 

[Chlidonias]

I thought lintworm's number five was a sifaka?

 

[ThylacineAlive]

I thought lintworm's number five was a sifaka?

That's possible.

[Maguari]

I thought lintworm's number five was a sifaka?

The face shape doesn't look right for a Crowned Sifaka, and the ones I've seen have a white patch on the 'bridge' of the 'nose' - so unless it's something lintworm found in a Malagasy zoo, I don't think it can be. I'd have to look up the other sifakas to be sure.

I liked Maguari's sneaky deer photo too. Without the head it looked to me like a large fat deer; with the head it is revealed to be a dumpy little deer!

Heehee, glad you liked!
