Q! only one in your list suits the category of 'animals & birds proverbs' I have restricted the collection to.
53.yaanaikkum adi saRukkum.
TV, yours is a hilarious one reminding me of kaaththirunthavan peNdaattiyai nEththu vanthavan eduththukoLvathu!
There must be an equivalent to trying to make the horse drink water. Can't recall immediately. Keep thinking!
Some more:
54.kOzi mithichi kunjsi saakaathu
55.thennai marathula thEl kottunaa panai marathula neRi kattum
56.panangaattu nari salasalappukku anjaathu
