yes you do because you capalatise nouns nouns are things people ANIMALS

Actually, you would not capitalize a common noun, such as an animal. If you were saying, for example, "I came across a lynx on the Mt. Chimmons trail." You would not capitalize lynx; however, if you are using its scientific name, Lynx canadensis, then you capitalize the genus name and you do not capitalize the species name. More examples, do not capitalize: beagle, dog, cat, black ferret, black bear, etc. If you are writing a pets name, like Snoopy, then you would capital the name because that is a proper noun. I hope that is clear and concise.
