What do these UV paintings mean?
Scanned pretty much the entire map with the UV light, and found these paintings which I don't really know what they do.
There are of course others, such as kangaroo/drill/egg spots, but I know what those do already. Anyways, here are the paintings:

Alchemy bunny

Maybe there are flute codes or other puzzles related to these, if so, please share any insights.

I believe most of them tell a story about the Manticore and it's relations to the player and animals.

The long nosed guy is Kilroy Was Here, a (what we call today) meme from WW2
good finds /sub
seems like they're all on brick walls too? except first bunny one which is on dirt
Idk how to post a screenshot, but I found another 2 rooms below the kangaroo room. (you get there from the other side of the map)
The bottom most one is Big Mode - the publisher's - icon

found that one too, but forgot to screenshot it, I'll append it to my original post (it should be the one with the manticore and 4 rats)
1) Nobody knows for sure yet.
2) Dog warning, because there is a dog in the room to the right.
3) This looks a lot like a secret end game thing, but it should be too far from that puzzle to be relevant. Could be a reference to the crank to raise the chain block in the below room, but I'm not sure.
4&5) Probably alluding to if you help the Lynx, then it will lead to you being able to chase down more rabbits. Symbolism.
6) It's a reference to a WWII cartoon drawing that allies would tag in places to tease the axis that they had been there. Google "Kilroy was here"
7) A reference to a post end game puzzle.
8) Big Mode easter egg.
9&10) A reference to another post end game puzzle. Though the dogs could hint at another layer to that.
Sorry for such a late comment, but the first one (alchemy bunny) is probably referring to the moon rabbits of Chinese folklore! On the moon, they constantly pound the ingredients for the elixir of immortality for the goddess Chang'e.
4&5) It's a hint for one of the post game puzzles. Specifically, the bunny statue. I'm pretty sure that's supposed to be the ghost dog, not a cat.
8) Probably meant to be a hint that you need to use the flute in that area. It has the same symbols that the jellyfish have.
9&10) Pretty sure those dogs are supposed to be the ones that mimic your movements in the final area, as a hint that the incubator in that area spawns another manticore.
