Answer :
The answer is 5 (or 3, depending on whether you count insects as animals).

Here is the step-by-step explanation:
1 Rabbit is going to the river.
(Count: 1)
5 Elephants are NOT going to the river.
The rabbit simply saw them while it was on its way.
(Count: 0)
2 Monkeys are heading to the river.
All 5 elephants saw the same 2 monkeys.
(Count: 2)
2 Crickets are going to the river.
Each of the 2 monkeys is carrying 1 cricket.
(Count: 2)

Final Answers :
5 Animals (1 Rabbit + 2 Monkeys + 2 Crickets, since insects scientifically belong to the animal kingdom).

3 Animals (if you only count mammals and exclude insects).
