* Chimpanzees have a dark-pigmented conjunctiva, which makes their sclerae look black. Captive chimps that have been mistreated or poorly-socialized are notoriously prone to unpredictable outbursts of violence and destructiveness.
* Black sclerae are actually fairly common in the eyes of apes in general (apart from modern humans -- human sclerae used to come in multiple colors besides white). Most gorillas have black sclerae, but a few individuals have white ones or even a "piebald" combination. It has been theorized that human beings began to favor white sclerae as it helped with non-verbal communication. White sclerae were desired in a potential mate to the point that the genes for black sclera have pretty much disappeared from humans and are now seen as "unnatural" or even creepy. Hence why this trope and BlackEyesOfEvil even exist.

Foxy's pupils are yellow, Chica and Bonnie's are blue, and Freddy's are reddish-orange. However, Freddy is basically the TokenEvilTeammate of the animatronics. Bonnie is rude, but not as antagonistic as Freddy, while Foxy and Chica are much nicer in comparison.
