I read somewhere that Hung Fut has 10 animals? I'm aware that its roots have some origin in Hung Ga. Can someone please list the other 10 remaining animals?
Also, can someone please post a list of forms/sets of the style? Thanks

10 and 12 animals seem to belong to Xingyi (Hsing I)
Hung Gar is big on 5 animals (snake, crane, dragon, leopard and tiger) but also has "10 killing hands" you think maybe it was this you heard of?
I haven't heard of 10 animals in a common place way within Hung Gar.
10 animals of southern kung fu
tiger
crane
leopard
snake
dragon
elephant
monkey
horse
lion
tiger cub
I believe some mistake Sup Ying Kuen in Hung Gar as 10 Animals when I think it is 5 Animals (Tiger, Dragon, Snake, Crane & Panther) & 5 Elements (Metal, Earth, Wood, Water & Fire).
On a side note: CLF has deer as one of its 10 animals (albeit not in my lineage).

I think this book by Kwan Tak Hing goes on about the Hung family and its fists...could that be the lead?? His foster father was Fok Hung,
"tiger cub" made me lol. I 'm sure you were laughing when you typed it.
9 out of 10 that lkfmdc put up are among HF 10 animals. The other one is Eagle.
Pretty much what LKFMDC said. You might find people swap in and out 1 or 2 (like the deer mentioned above) but most of those sound right.
I was told "biu" refered to deer but the tiger cub thing came up as well with that however the person said biu also referred to a deer in someway. The deer is used in the Chan Family lineage, whereas I have seen tiger cub in others. My wife said the characters used in DFWs list refers to a tiger not a deer (lok).
Supposedly it involves avey archaic character not really used anymore that shares the same sound as biu - tiger cub. This character is said to mean something like "golden flaming deer."
and has the radical for deer on the right side of the character and on the left side is metal and underneath the deer radical is fire. There were links to the character but they no longer work so who knows.
Hung Kuen 10 Animals :
