A to Z: Animal Names from German to English

Using the German animal names as a hint, guess the animal names in English A-Z.
Note: I am American, so some of these animals may be under their American names. Also, if the animal has two names in German and one is a cognate, I chose the other name for this quiz. Enjoy!

Loved the idea, some German translations are a bit strange though. I'm German and believe me: Nobody ever says "Schwarzfersenantilope" or "Beutelbär" - we simply call them - guess what: Impala and Koala ! And I didn't even know that there is a "Deutsche Wespe" - and if so what do "real (?)" wasps look like ? Anyway, it was fun to play - thx
