List of 6-letter Animals that start with G

    1

    Galago

    Galago senegalensis (and related species)

    The bush baby of African nights — small, doe-eyed primates with enormous forward-facing eyes for night vision, vast membranous ears that fold flat when resting, and extraordinary leaping ability; galagos can jump up to 2.25 metres in a single spring using powerful back legs; their plaintive cry in the African night sounds disconcertingly like a crying human infant, giving rise to the name bush baby.

    2

    Gelada

    Theropithecus gelada

    Ethiopia's grass-eating monkey — the only primate that feeds primarily on grass, living in the high Simien Mountains in bands of hundreds that graze like sheep; males have a dramatic hourglass-shaped bare red chest patch that flushes brighter during excitement and serves as a substitute for the rump displays used by other primates.

    3

    Gibbon

    Hylobatidae (family)

    A small, tail-less Asian ape that swings through forest canopies with extraordinary grace — the smallest of the apes, monogamous, and famous for elaborate songs that echo through Southeast Asian rainforests at dawn.
