Hard Level Challenge: Can you identify animals by standards alone?

Hey dear reader! Are you a fan of nature and have a special interest and appreciation for animals? By the way, are you the type who always tries to keep abreast of the discovery of new species and catch up with the exotic creatures that live with us on the planet? Because we at Mega Curioso face a challenge that is not for the weak, no!

Proposed by the folks at Mental_Floss, the game is to guess the identity of the animal just by looking at the patterns of its coat or skin. We'll soon warn you that the challenge level is "hard" - mega blaster - but anyway, we invite you to test your "animalistic" knowledge below:
