Hi,
it seems for me that you can model your problem as an instance of object recognition (you can search the list for this, that is a lot of info about it). I can recommend to you two recent papers on object recognition that can help you start your project:
P. Felzenszwalb, R. Girshick, D. McAllester, D. Ramanan. Object Detection with Discriminatively Trained Part Based Models. IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, Vol. 32, No. 9, September 2010 You can find the paper and code here: http://www.cs.brown.edu/~pff/latent/
Payet, N.; Todorovic, S.; , "From contours to 3D object detection and pose estimation," Computer Vision (ICCV), 2011 IEEE International Conference on , vol., no., pp.983-990, 6-13 Nov. 2011
I hope that this can help... If you give more details about the type of animals you are trying to detect we can provide more a specific answer such as which feature you could use.
