A highly intelligent marine mammal found in oceans worldwide, famous for its sophisticated social behavior, problem-solving ability, and signature whistle communication.

2

Echidna

Tachyglossus aculeatus

A spiny egg-laying mammal of Australia and New Guinea — one of only five surviving monotremes — that uses an electroreceptive snout to locate buried ants, termites, and earthworms without using sight or smell.

Giraffa camelopardalis

The tallest living land animal, with an extraordinarily long neck and legs and a patchwork coat unique to each individual.

4

Gorilla

Gorilla beringei (eastern); Gorilla gorilla (western)

The largest living primate — gentle vegetarian forest dwellers of Central Africa, organized in family groups led by silverback males, with tragic conservation crises across all four subspecies.

5

Sea Lion

Zalophus californianus (California); Otariidae family

An eared seal — distinguishable from true seals by external ear flaps and front-flipper-driven swimming — with vocal "barking" colonies on rocky coasts and a long history of training for circuses, naval programs, and aquariums.

6

Siamang

Symphalangus syndactylus

The largest of the gibbons — a black, shaggy ape of the Malay Peninsula and Sumatra that produces one of the loudest calls of any land animal using an inflatable throat sac the size of a grapefruit; pairs bond for life and sing coordinated duets that carry through rainforest for kilometres.

7

Tarsier

Tarsius spectrum and related Tarsius species

The primate with the largest eyes relative to body size of any mammal — a tiny nocturnal primate of Southeast Asian forests whose enormous, fixed eyes cannot move in their sockets (the animal must rotate its entire head to change direction of gaze); each eye is as large as its brain; it is the only entirely carnivorous primate, eating insects, lizards, and small birds.
