Answer: Each of the animals has specific requirements for survival.

The indefinite pronoun "each" does not agree with the verb "have" in this sentence. "Each" suggests that the sentence is referring to one or every one of a certain number of animals. Because "have" is plural, we have to change it to "has" so it fits the sentence.
