There's a lot of things that defines the James Bond Franchise: Vehicles, Gadgets, Exotic Locations, beautiful women, foods, wines and other beverages, fashion, watches, but other than those, if there's one thing that makes James Bond, a one of a kind franchise, animals! Yes, you've heard it right! Animals! Now there were different types of animals that our man Bond interacted and some were interacted by the villains, now in this elimination game, we're going to break down all of these animals, at which of them best represented the Franchise.

    Don’t you mean Tarantula for Doctor No?

    How about Strombergs fish from Spy Who Loved Me?
    Or the camel from the same movie?

    Bond as running monkey in Casino Royale. Self spot scene followed in QOS when Bond stole clothes / toilet scene.

    Rise of a snake from the sand in the maintitle of QOS. Back then there was possible that Camile come back as a trater.

    Spectre:

    Bond introduced him self as Mickey Mouse (Refer to Jerry from Tom and Jerry) to The door Monkey
    Ciao Mickey Mouse. When Bond be discoverd and The Door Monkey said goodbye to him.

    The mouse at 'l American

    The cats in Spectre at villian lair when Bond is in the chair. Refer to two cats (and Blofeld) of Diamonds Are Forever., who is false one ? Who is the real Tom ? (Is this real Blofeld ?)

    Big Mad Wolf with his big mouth returns from QOS. Mr White.

    Madeline wearing a snake dress at villian lair. Part of plan to let us believe she was bad. Falling twice for lie in lyrics of NTTD also refer to that after Camile we fall for it again.

    NTTD: Eye of a snake. Blofeld eye candy (camera) searchig like a snake searhing for food.

    Sadly, no animals to speak of in the Brosnan era.

    The MR snake is an Anaconda (Pythons are from Asia).
    The electric eel in LTK.
    The scorpion from the drinking game in SF.
    Mongoose vs. cobra fight in CR.
    Desert lizard in QoS. (no interaction with Bond)
    Hairless cat (Bond: "You know, these come with fur these days") in NTTD.

    Also Goldfinger's horse (better breed than the owner, as Bond says)…

    Already added! Thanks! @zebrafish and @GoldenGun

    Just I've remembered, there are those guard dogs in TWINE when Bond dispatched Mikhail Arkhov, but aside from that, yes there are no animal cameos in the Brosnan Era.

    I have a feeling that this elimination game may outlast my remaining life span if we include all these critters.

    To make better use of @j_w_pepper 's remaining life time, maybe the list should be cut down to the most essential animals?

    The QoS lizard just sits there for a brief moment and the mongoose & cobra serve as a backdrop only. Others, however, are at least mentioned (Q's cats) or interact with characters (scorpions, snakes, alligators, komodo dragons), those I would keep. How about it?

    Yes, only those were essential. 😊
    I'll edit it, and reduce it down.

    I'd say only those that were iconic, most memorable and part of the plot, interacted with some of the characters, they can be pets, or animals that make such scenes or characters iconic.

    Don't forget Doudou. Wasn't that an animal, too? I understand we have zoologists here who may be able to determine which.

    Doudou's anatomical features clearly put it among the mammals, because it has an umbilicus (navel) and is furry. Its ears suggest either a rodent (hare preferably, which has longer ears than a rabbit), but the lack of strong musculature supporting the hind legs speaks against a hopping way of locomotion. It could also be an animal bred artificially for longer ears or with longer hair on its ears. More clues towards the true identity of the species can be derived from the coloration differences between the distal extremities and the more proximal limbs, which suggest that these may be hooves, in which case this could be a sheep (supported by the wooly fur, thin long legs typical for stampede behavior). A perplexing feature are the green eyes, which are very rare in mammals and observed only in some monkeys and lemurs. Yet, these taxa feature a long tail, a trait that is clearly missing from Doudou.
    In conclusion, Doudou may be a sheep with unusual eyes.

    I love the wild animals in the Bond films and missed them since the 90's.
    @SIS_HQ Could you add the white shark from LTK? You could therefore removethe electric eel or many others but the game doesn't make sense without adding the animal that Leiter disagreed with.

    Yes, thank you, @zebrafish, that was exactly the scientifically-founded reaction I was hoping for. :-) I just don't know where you got the picture of the creature.
