Sentient Marmite: The Truth may make you fret.
Sometimes in SF & F we worry are some alien or fantasy animals unlikely ...
But we have the Komodo Dragon: Bites and infects prey, follows it till it dies.
Coconut Crabs
Crows, and corvids generally, are too smart, far too smart. Obviously alien trans-dimensional beings.
Flying squirrels are marsupials. Marsupials don't have belly buttons
Octopus are seriously weird and smart, copper based blood has have the very strange Horseshoe crabs.
A Tyrannosaurus rex might be closer to a sparrow than a Triceratops
You'd not be taken seriously making this up
