Lions and Tigers and Bears, Oh My!: A Dresdenverse Bestiary
Jeckel:
Found a typo, you've got School of Piranha spelled 'Pirranha'. :)
Thanks for the notice on sheet changes, that will make things so much easier. I followed suit and added a line to the bottom of each sheet telling what date its data was last modified on the web-site. Also, I added the last modified date after the link to Ravangames's PDF. Now people will know if your updates have been propagated to the other formats yet.

Doing the locusts swarm as an environmental hazarded mixed with a few "Person sized swarms" worked out really well. My players planned ahead very well and managed to save 2 of their 6 fields. I finally got to throw a Grizzly Bear at them when they were driving their cattle to the auction house in the next territory. The wizard (who is a Coward With a Heart of Gold) lost his intimidation defense and was ran away "screaming like a little girl". :D Long story short, one of the NPC cattle herders was injured pretty bad, but no cattle were lost and the sale was made.
They had so much fun with the locusts and the bear that we paused before returning to the farm. Next session I'll get to break the Shetland Pony twist to the rest of the group. These have been some of the funnest sessions I've had since college. 8)

Nomad:
I know this is more of a nitpick but some exceptional animals like Dolphins, Elephants, Ravens, Crows, Whales (as a species compared to individuals like domesticated cats and dogs) seem to have something between Scholarship (Language) and Lore
Maybe you could give them Lore and say Echoes of the Beast allows them to use the skill for
trying to decipher human language and other intelligence/sapience based uses?
Or maybe create a totally new, animal only, skill like "Ancestral Pack (Pod, Herd, whatever their group is called) Lore" and use that instead of scholarship?
Deadmanwalking:
Lore is knowledge of the supernatural, which is just...really wrong for mundane animals.
And as others have pointed out, most humans lack Scholarship and/or Lore at above Medocre, I'd just assume that such creatures have a base of Mediocre, the same as a human would, for anything within their sphere of knowledge.
