Limiting it to real animals is a good idea, because that should eliminate most debate about what should or should not count.
I am curious if there are meant to be any other limitations on how many games can be used for that. Some might only feature an animal or two, but others are loaded with them, like Terraria, which has enough different critters running around that it could easily check off all 10 on its own.
It's an odd challenge in that it can be trivial or difficult depending on what you play. Limiting it to something like two animals per game would've been wise but I think it's a bit late now that people are claiming it.

With the Auspex challenge - anyone have thoughts on fictional vs real animals? My inclination is to only allow real because when we're talking about non-human animals, extending the distinction between human-ish animals and non-human-ish ones into fictional settings becomes difficult (unicorns/ dragons/ beholders/ goblins trigger different degrees of intuition about whether they'd count, and I'd really like to minimize ambiguity with challenges).

Welcome friend! This is a very friendly (although sometimes ornery) group. People are always happy to answer questions. Start small with just a game or two, perhaps. Above all, don't listen to anything Lewjis says. He's the guy trying to trade used toilet seats. I mean, the guy can't even spell his own name!
Oh, and sarcasm often rules the day here.
Additionally, look at the very top of this list (where all the rules are) for the link to the discussion thread--if you have questions, you're most likely to get answers there.

Never joined one of these. I should see if I have extra games people might want.
