Anyone know of a living thing that starts with x?

[floridafam]

Son is doing a project.

We have managed to think of a living thing for every letter of the alphabet.

The only one we are stumped on is the letter X.

Anyone know of a bird, insect, animal, etc. that starts with the letter x?

Thanks.

Our animal alphabet poster has a xenops for the letter x. It shows a picture of a bird.

Xebu. It's kind of like a water buffalo.

Another Latin one:

Xiphias Gladius (Swordfish) from DS's Ocean Alphabet Book (they could not find an X fish either!)
