I really like the first one, nice dynamic shadows. I would just try making the background darker behind him, the window/gate thing is a little distracting to the overall scene.

I like the detail you've managed to capture around the nose of the baboon ( at least I think its a baboon) and the rock he's resting his chin on shows some great texture. The only thing that doesn't quite work for me is the subject and the background are a little too dark and almost the same color so they blend together a bit too much. You might have been going for this look so this might just be me. Still good though!

The last one is nice because of the DOF and nice contrast between the boar's face and the ground.

How close did you manage to get to the animals?
