Correct!

Spoiler

With a fair bit of extra info, although you didn't include it's other common names

I answered what I knew off the top of my head. I saw one dive and try to catch a fish this summer close-up, but it didn't manage.

On to a cutie-pie.

Answer 37

Is that an Ai-Ai?

It does appear to be a goat of some variety, judging by the coat and horns. Most likely a mountain goat of some sort, However, I am not well versed in the different types of mountain goat… and my curiosity has gotten the better of me. I just may browse through the types of goats, but won't post anything that I find (don't want to cheat now)…

Although your guesses have been right, I'm afraid that they're too vague to count as correct. I used an obscure animal intentionally. Maybe I went too obscure? In any case, I hope you enjoy what you find!

I hope so; he's been online as recently as 25 hours ago. Maybe someone should PM him? I don't mind doing it, I just don't want him to get six identical messages because we can't coordinate.

Spoiler

I think it's spelled "aye-aye," but that would be my guess, too.

I'm not sure if you meant the description "cutie-pie" to be ironic, Cuthalion, but I happen to legitimately think that they're adorable.

[Cuthalion]

Answer 37

Spoiler

Yeah, an aye-aye. The babies (Like that one)

Spoiler

are amazingly adorable, but the grown-up ones aren't quite as cute.

Man, I was hoping this was a lead-up to answering, "Aye!"

Wouldn't you rather guess? No? OK,

Spoiler

It's a Rock Ptarmigan

[Cuthalion]

Ok, since nobody else has posted anything, and we're already on the fun topic of goats, how about this one?
Critter 38

Spoiler

[noparlpf]

I don't know anything about goats. So I'll just guess that critter is a bovid of some sort. (Fancy words to disguise ignorance, that's a thing.)

It's a curly-horned, long-haired, mountain goat, obviously.

Discussion 38

Spoiler

Well, it appears to be an old-world goat of some sort. Probably not an ibex… but yeah, that's about all I can figure.

[Lyndworm]

Guess 38

Spoiler

Is that a markhor? I've refrained from googling, so I can't be sure of the coat length/color/pattern, but the horns make me think markhor.

...I like goats.

Also, here's a new beastie to marvel at:

Critter Thirty-Nine

Oh man I knew what that is. But I forgot. It's extinct...

I think it's called a Cave Sloth.

Technically correct, but no cigar.

Spoiler

Do you mean a giant ground sloth (specifically megatherium, which is both popular and somewhat similar to #39)? Because no, that's not what it is. I'm not sure I've heard of a cave sloth before.

:b

Yeah, that doesn't look quite like megatherium. Megatherium walks on the sides of its paws, for one. (Well, this also "knuckle-walks", but their paws look somewhat different.)

Alright, here's another

Critter 40:

[Lyndworm]

Guess 40:

Spoiler

ಠ _^ ಠ

Bulbasaur? Or do I have to name the specific artist/artstyle/source of the image? Otherwise, it seems a little too easy. I feel like its a trick question!

Correct!

Spoiler

Yeah, it was a bit on the easy side, I just decided to fool around a bit. As for the artist, you can find his stuff here.

[Lyndworm]

Over two weeks without any guesses or new entries, so I'll give a little update-bump.

Critter Thirty-Five is (if you're done guessing):

Spoiler

a (Japanese) serow.

Critter Thirty-Nine is (if you're done guessing):

Spoiler

an Anisodon.

Here's a couple more for you guys (try to guess the theme):

Critter Forty-One:

Spoiler

Critter Forty-Two:

Spoiler

[Ksheep]

Guess 42:

Spoiler

That appears to be a Platybelodons

And going off of your theme, I give you Critter 43:

Spoiler

[noparlpf]

No idea about 41 and 42. Are those extinct elephant-type things of come sort?

Guess 43:

Spoiler

Looks like an oliphaunt/mumakil?

Also correct, technically! I think we'll need something more specific, though.
