One way to solve this problem is to create a hash, in which the keys are
the animal names and the values are the sequences, possibly in an
arrayref, possibly just cat'd together.

So, something like:

  for each file
        open the file
        for every new animal found
          add all the non-blank lines to $sequences{animal}

Is that clear-ish?
