OP... this one's for you! I'm curious as to what they said about your photos as well... as in which photos got which rejections
Main photos:
sauipe_cerca_pb_MD.jpg
This is a good shot, but a few things. The sky is blown out and that's probably why the bounced it back. If you can fix the sky by bringing some detail back into it, this should get the approval next time around. Maybe add a bit more contrast too. Also, the horizon line isn't straight either

I feel as if the focus is off just ever so slightly off of the snake's eye. I'm assuming that's what the rejection was for. Composition is OK, I wish you would have gotten more of the snake's body wrapped around the stick (not sure if it's even possible). Too much dead space on the bottom left

What's weird to me is that the center of the image is sharp, but as you go towards the edges, it gets a lot softer. And there's also noticeable grain. Stock sites don't like grain too often. Also keep in mind that you are selling the whole shot, so if something is soft when it shouldn't be, they will probably bounce it back.
Extras:

They will probably bounce back because of the grain. Shot is good, but grain is bad.
cobra_Verde_2_MD.jpg
This shot is better than the first one (at least I think it is). Brighten it up a bit and see if they will accept it
borboleta_grande_MD.jpg
Composition is good but focus is off just ever so slightly. Do you have another shot that has the eye in focus? If so, try uploading that one instead
esquilo_MD.jpg
Focus is off just by a bit on this one as well. He's too close to the right edge of the shot. Find a different shot with better composition.
I don't mean to sound harsh (if I do), but you're real close on a few of these. Fix some of these issues and I don't think you'll have an issue with them accepting your images. Be more critical on yourself than you think you should be. I like to walk away for 15-30 minutes when working at times to clear my mind and see what I notice when I come back
