 Object selection1 = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, "Select any three of your favorite animals?",
        "Zoo Quiz", JOptionPane.QUESTION_MESSAGE, null, selectionValues1, initialSelection1);

You'll likely need to create two JComboBoxes, place them in a JPanel and then place that JPanel into the JOptionPane's Object parameter.

And once you add the panel to the JOptionPane you may want to consider the Dialog Focus suggestion.
