Hmmm...
1 - Mishmi Takin
2 - Common Green Birdwing
3 - White-lipped Peccary
4 - Moon Jelly
5 - Fishing Cat
??
Not sure about 1 - looks really familiar but can't place it.
2 out of 5, won't say which two [though I'm sure you probably know], just makes the others guess if I don't say which ones

Gah, just looked again - Margay for number 5?
Will let someone else have a guess at the others first! Got a good answer for most but No. 1 still bugging me.
OK - had a flash of inspiration - how's these? (I still think 3 looks like a young suid/tayassuid)
1 - Wolverine (Gulo gulo)
2 - Common Green Birdwing (Ornithoptera prasinus)
3 - Common Warthog (Phacochoerus africanus)
4 - Moon Jelly (Aurelia aurita)
5 - Margay (Leopardus wiedii)
1 - Wolverine (Gulo gulo)
2 - Common Green Birdwing (Ornithoptera prasinus)
3 - Common Warthog (Phacochoerus africanus)
4 - Moon Jelly (Aurelia aurita)
5 - Margay (Leopardus wiedii)
You're getting warmer
Again, won't say which ones are right and which ones are wrong, but the finish line is in sight for you, just keep thinking

You devil - now I don't want to stop guessing!
1 - Wolverine (Gulo gulo)
2 - Common Green Birdwing (Ornithoptera prasinus)
3 - Collared Peccary (Tayassu tajacu)
4 - Moon Jelly (Aurelia aurita)
5 - Margay (Leopardus wiedii)
Warmer? Colder? No different?

No different, but you're on the line
will say now that #3 is wrong, and a clue is that it isn't a suid or peccary. Infact, it's not even atrodactyla

*not obsessed at all now*
Right, then I switch to fallback taxon!

2 - Common Green Birdwing (Ornithoptera prasinus)
3 - Parma Wallaby (Macropus parma)

Not missing out on this now!
Should I just tell you what #3 is
You're definatley on the right lines, just keep going through

Am I just going to have to run through every bleedin' macropod!
OK - feeling good about this one!

2 - Common Green Birdwing (Ornithoptera prasinus)
3 - Agile Wallaby (Macropus agilis)

You'll be waiting a while on that one, since after a good amount of bruises to the thumbs you've managed to hit the nail on the head
Well done Maguari, top marks for persistance. [though probably a mistake of mine to use the birdwing after our lengthy discussion about it
]I look forward to seeing what you come out with, the sheer volume of species you've seen and zoos you've visited will certainly make it challenging.
Well done

Thanks! Got there in the end! Yes - definitely a tactical error on the birdwing.
Sorry for hogging this one but once I was close I couldn't stop!
Will have a root about - back in 5.
EDIT: Just realised I typed the birdwing's name as 'prasinus' - for shame! It's O. priamus, of course.
OK - here's a bunch of 5 for someone else to drive themselves mad over!
For a bonus Maguari point if you can name it and possibly a slight clue - all of these were taken at the same zoo in 2010.
Happy guessing!
EDIT: Ha! Cropped one so closely that it can't be expanded - good luck!

Of course

1. Obviously a Northern Gannet
