Guess the species #6

[robmv]

I think we're on a pig(ish) theme here ...

1. (upside-down) Babirusa
2. struggling a bit on this one - Warthog?
3. White-lipped Peccary
4. (upside-down) Bearded Pig

Now three identified correctly, and robmv has cleverly guessed the theme.

Just one of the photos to guess now....

 

[robmv]

How's about ...

1) Babirusa
2) Pygmy Hog
3) Visayan Warty Pig
4) Bearded Pig

 

[Chlidonias]

ooh, really close! You have three correct in your first post. In your second post you have the correct species for number three but in the wrong place....

 

[robmv]

That riddle is more confusing than the photos! The only combination I can come up with is:

1) Babirusa
2) Warthog (which would surprise me)
3) Pygmy Hog
4) Bearded Pig

and that combination is correct! Moebelle got one originally (babirusa) but robmv got everything else and guessed the theme, so he is the Grand Winner of this round. I'll link to the original photos in a minute.

Next time I see a warthog I will pay special attention to its feet! I'll dig out some cryptic photos later this evening.

1) Ragunan Zoo: http://www.zoochat.com/641/male-babirusa-140059/ (and I flipped the photo to make it less obvious)

2) Singapore Zoo: http://www.zoochat.com/40/warthogs-139298/

3) Pigmy Hog breeding centre at Nameri National Park: http://www.zoochat.com/736/pigmy-hog-porcula-salvania-358179/

4) Jong's Crocodile Farm: http://www.zoochat.com/1233/bearded-pig-sus-barbatus-149029/ (with the photo rotated to make it a little more interesting to look at).

OK, try these on for size ...

2. Panay Clouded Rat

 

[Moebelle]

4. Alligator Snapping Turtle

 

[ThylacineAlive]

I'm going to say 1 is a Takin and 5 is a Yellow Mongoose.

And maybe Ground Cuscus for 2.

First thoughts?

1. Szechuan Takin
2. Grey Ground Cuscus
3. Erm... a macropod by the looks - Agile Wallaby?
4. Alligator Snapping Turtle
5. Yellow Mongoose

 

[robmv]

4/5 already - I had a feeling these might be a bit easy.

 

[Moebelle]

3. Yellow-footed Rock Wallaby

 

[Chlidonias]

#3 looks like a kangaroo rather than a wallaby. I would guess at eastern grey kangaroo.

 

[robmv]

Come on folks, we're nearly there ...

 

[Maguari]

1. Szechuan Takin
2. Grey Ground Cuscus
3. *Western* Grey Kangaroo
4. Alligator Snapping Turtle
5. Yellow Mongoose

 

[Moebelle]

And I'll go with a Red Kangaroo.
