Some animals are named after other animals:
Fox Squirrel
Rhinoceros Beetle
Leopard Frog
My question - Are there any animals named like the above where there is also another animal with the reverse name?
Eg:
Spider Monkey - Monkey Spider
Thanks!
- Anteater
- Flycatcher
- ...
The NHL has 7+ (3 teams have animal logos with non-animal names), the NFL has 15, and the NBA has 9.

Animals in the NFT Art World
While many have read a news story about the NFT craze for the ‘Bored Ape Yacht Club’ or ' CryptoKitties' collections, there are really too many projects with animals to count.
One recent project is Stoner Cats, whereby pu
... keep reading on reddit ➡Doesn't matter if it has links to the songs, but it is appreciated if it does. But I am willing to add the links myself if I can just get a list of quests named after songs...
This thought came to me while I was watching the newest /u/manyatruenerd FNV video and him starting the quest We will all go together, named for the Tom Lehrer song.
What if every team was named after the most abundantly populated animal in their geographical area?
Analysis
We at UAS can't help but wonder what animal mascots would best represent the cities or states their teams reside in.
Take the Lions for example. When you think of Brisbane, you do not think of a jungle ruled over by apex feline predators. I don't know if the Brisbane Zoo has any tigers, or if Brisbane even has a zoo for that matter, but I am 100% certain that there is at least 1 species of animal in Brisbane and the surrounding areas that is more populous than lions. The difficult part, however, is determining which animal is the most populous.
Anyway though, this is what the AFL would look like if all the teams had to rebrand as the most common animal in their region.
