I’ll be honest, I’d be hard pressed to name many animals strongly associated with specific countries. Off the top of my head:
USA - Bald eagle/American bison
Mexico - Golden eagle
Canada - Caribou
Peru - Alpaca
Bolivia - Guinea pig
Russia - Brown bear
India - Indian elephant/Bengal tiger
China - Giant panda
Australia - a zillion species only native to Australia
Japan - tanuki (raccoon dog)/those macaques that hang out in hot springs
Canada is obviously a beaver! Or a moose. But I think the beavers are more hug shaped and fluffy. I’d say a penguin for Antarctica, but that’s a continent, not a country.
America name a second Chinese animal
Dragons.
… r-red panda?
edit: haha fuckin gottem
They stand on their hind legs and show their claws to appear larger and more threatening.
Which, because they’re tiny and hug shaped, looks like “pick me up! I want a hug!”

…yup, that’s all I’ve got.
I thought America’s thing was the Opossum
