List of 2-syllable Animals that contain Z

1

Gazelle

Gazella (genus)

A swift, slender African and Asian antelope — about a dozen species ranging across savannas, deserts, and open grasslands, prized prey for cheetahs and lions, and a model of running efficiency.

2

Quetzal

Pharomachrus mocinno

Central America's most spectacular bird — the resplendent quetzal's emerald green tail feathers can reach 65 cm and were considered more valuable than gold by the Maya and Aztec civilisations; it is the national bird of Guatemala, depicted on the flag and currency, and remains a symbol of freedom as it refuses to survive long in captivity.

3

Zebra

Equus quagga

The most common and widespread zebra species, a grazing horse with vivid black-and-white striping that lives in family bands across the African savanna.
