Placental hegemony takes its insidious toll once again. :-) Obviously, there's an element of subjectivity in judging whether or not an animal's name is "nifty", but how about the numbat, the quoll, the Tasmanian devil, the thylacine (or Tasmanian wolf)?

chained_bear commented on the list animals-with-nifty-names
Except for numbat and quoll, I have to say they're just not as nifty as the other names on the list. Out of respect, though, and since I can't find a better reason for excluding them than that they aren't as "nifty," they're added. Thanks for the suggestions!
And anyway--it isn't placental, since there are a few birds, reptiles, a fish or two, and yes, a marsupial on this list already. Some of my best friends are non-placental. No, really.

Horse? Now, that's nifty. I was stunned that I did not see wombat on your list. And what about koala?

chained_bear commented on the list animals-with-nifty-names
Well, horse is okay, as words go. But I don't think it can really compare to, say, ibex or kinkajou. But wombat is on this list, as well as several others; koala is cool too; they are both on my Australia list. :) Thanks for the input! You might also like this list: the (chained) unbearable cuteness of beings, by skipvia. (Will this link work? Dunno.)
The cool thing about the list is if you click on each word, then "comments," there's a link to some cuteness or other.

Thought of this list when I came across cuscuses for the first time today. Cuscus is the common name for a particular species of possum: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuscus
