Should these expansion joints be filled with something to prevent critter entry?

There should be a flexible sealer injected. It is a caulk like material.

That's what I thought too.  I recommend it be sealed by a qualified professional.

You barely ever see that sealed. Just like control joints in cocncrete which should actually be caulked to but you will never see it

That's right, block wall Masons use these same joints, what I mean is the good ones do. It's pretty typical for the professionals.
