I think you need to do more with the Spectacled Bear's face- color changed eyes.

I think you need to make more facial details with the spectacled bear, because right now its not very recognizable as that species.

If you can modify it some more, then i feel i can vote.

Josh, your "Tanuki" reminds me much more of a badger.

And I don't think the spectacled bear is a good route to go. If you're going to, make the ears dark, and bring the eye flaps forward (just undo that valley fold) and squash them open for color changed eyes. That lower jaw or whatever it is flap needs to be shortened to the same length as the nose. You need to crimp the face in and out to give some distinction and not just look like a flat square for a face.
