Note that:
* maragwan is probably a borrowing from an Indian language (not in the Walloon names for mosquitos
https://alw.uliege.be/alw/?alw_volume=8&alw_page=305

* coûn is a borrowing from English "racoon"

both could be added to standard Walloon vocabulary

Notes on english translation

I completed the animal list.

I added column 4 for probable Feller orthography; column 5 for comments.

I corrected the intervertions on numbers 15 to 21

Remarks while listening to audio files animals / plants:

Remarquable pronunciations (maybe no more available by Walloonian Walloons)
* the ones with diasystem én : tchén (dog), roncén (stallion), sapén (pine tree), lapén (rabbit); not recorded in Walloon dictionaries: arén (herring)
* påwion (butterfly)* with "rolled R" : crechi (to grow), pierot (sparrow), chevreû (roe deer), veråt (boar) , troye (sow), rat (rat), araegne (spider), spirou (squirrel), tortoûwe (turtel)
* tonic accent rightly on last syllab : copixhe (ant)
* deliquescence of R in "oûsse" (bear); R should not be noted in pronunciation
* typical pronunciation of Walloon Brabant vowel ë (/œ/) : on në(d) (a nest), one bëche (a doe 1)
* nice clear pronunciation : spwè (woodpecker), céde (cedar tree), nut tree (gaeyî), spirou (skirrel), xhuflåd / chuflaud (woodchuck)

If possible, those audio files should be audible in Walloon Wiktionary.

Suspected pronunciations:
* burdock : it seems me that the pronounced word is "bouyon" (booyah) = chicken soup
* /arb/ (tree) is a French word with partially Walloon pronunciation /arb/ where final /b/ is French
* for "robbin" the pronunciation is /griːʃ/ which seems the French word "grive" with change of the last consonnant. The francisation of the word (typical walloon form: gréve /gref/ also exist in Wallonia; see "grîve" in ALW https://alw.uliege.be/alw/?alw_volume=8&alw_page=155
* for "starling", the bisyllabic pronunciation /sprɛwɛ/ is artificial (based of a Walloon written form "sprewe" where last E is E muet, hence unpronounced); same for "leaf", bisyllabic pronunciation would be correct for "fouya" (branch of tree) but is suspect for "fouye" (leaf)
* for "grass snake" the pronunciation is /kadu/ (instead of /kalut/

Management of the indefinite articles
* I removed the articles where they were not pronounced. The use of article "one" can lead to a change of the word. for example: "a starling"  would be : one siprewe with epenthetic "i"; the starling would be "lë sprèwe". For "horse" (tch'vau, /ʧfoː/, the preceding word has to finish with a vowel.
* in "on binde di canård" (a flock of ducks), the article should be "one" (feminine); the pronounced article is "on" (masculine); same for "a doe", the article is "English like" "o" biche. Those irregular articles a noted with * in the Feller column.

English-like pronunciation (column 2) should be changed for "piglet" :(hashya) => kasheh

English traduction : "berbis" is not "a sheep" but "a ewe".

For "woodchuck", an animal not present in Walloonia, OK to consider it a Walloon-based neologism "xhuflåd" (chuflaud) = "whistlard"
