Animals
Hi, I'm trying to complie a list of animals, birds, fish, any creature beginning with the letters of the alphabet.
I have quite a few and accounted for every letter but three! I can find none beginning with the letter 'I'. As for 'W' and 'K' I'm sure there are none, but please correct me if I'm wrong.
Saludos.

If you still need any, here's a couple that may need naming
Actually the next one is already named and is apparently a real creature
I cheated (i.e. used a dictionary), of course
La palabra "wapití" procede de la lengua Shawnee y significa "nalgas blancas", en referencia al color de sus cuartos traseros (Wikipedia). Hmmm, interesting.
I have three flash card sets on animals. This one is Animals O through Z. There are seven T animals, three V's and a Z.. Take a look.link text

Ok, cogollo is not exactly a common animal. It is an insect, similar to the cicada, but bigger.
The "caracal" is a kind of wildcat. See below:

¿El cogollo es animal? ¿Y qué es un caracal?
Y no te olvides de los cachorros. (Sí, sé que no es un especie.)
Wow, that's great. I'll have to look up quite a few and find out what they are. Thanks for that!

Sorry, make that 35 beginning with the letter 'C'. (I missed some)
I've found the Spanish names for 26 creatures beginning with the letter 'C'. Can anybody top this? Just for fun, no prizes! Cheers!
