• Gekko gecko - the Tokay Gecko
• Iguana iguana - the Green Iguana
• Ursus arctos - the Brown Bear, AKA the "bear bear", because "ursus" is bear in Latin, and "arctos" is bear in ancient Greek

okay actually these are proteins and not living things, but I mean, they're still organic, right??

• Pikachurin
• Sonic Hedgehog

• Upupa epops - the Eurasian Hoepoe bird
• Gekko gecko - the Tokay Gecko

• okay I swear there's a ferret whose name translates to "filthy stinking weasel" but I need to find it...
• Sauromalus ater - the Common Chuckwalla lizard, meaning "dark flat lizard", which thankfully isn't a mean name at all. HOWEVER, if you're not a very good Latin and ancient Greek translator, you might mis-tranlate it as "the gloomy bad lizard" which would be a very sinister and undeserved name indeed. Alternatively, most miserably, "the average and unremarkable, dismal and unlucky lizard". Cruel and untrue!

• Merops apiaster - the European Bee-Eater bird
