I'd somehow forgotten about the Turok-Han. I agree that they seem to be a vamped different species of hominid. Given what little we know of the "pure" demon (if that's what we saw in Pylea) then maybe any warm-blooded species with sufficient higher brain function to match or exceed the demon would suffice. (Anything dumber would probably die quickly.) So you could possibly vamp a lion or a whale but not a gerbil or a shark.
If the vamping is a magical/symbolic act then you still have to ask, how human is good enough? If a closely-related homnid's OK, then what about a chimp?

Lemurs are probably out though :)
