Not a single one. Scrubbing through wiktionary a bit, looking at lists of common names, and looking up names for male/female and young animals got me most of these. This will probably never be thorough, so if you could name any missing items that would be appreciated.

Owl is two syllables (ow-ul). The others have been added.

The main dictionary pronunciation key says one syllable, although it's one of those words where you can change the amount of syllables depending on pronunciation (like fire).
