But to clarify the question, do you mean any animal that doesn't use haemaglobin as a oxygen carrying protein. There is Green-blooded skink from borneo where the colouration is due to the presence of biliverdin pigment. Then there are the horseshoe crabs who circulatory fluid carries hemocyanin a copper based material rather than iron based like haemaglobin this gives it a blue colour when oxygen binds to it.
