Many animals live on the island. Most are visible and can be attacked, while some are concealed in the terrain and cannot be harmed or even noticed until they attack.
Visible animals
Visible animals can be seen on the game map. They move or attack on their own twice an hour, once at 5 minutes past and once at 35 minutes past, and will also attack reactively (and immediately) each time they are attacked.
Most animals are passive and will only attack a player actively (not reactively) if the player has attacked them, at which point the animal will attack once every 30 minutes until they are dead, the player is dead, the player runs away, or a different player harms them. Other animals, including elephants, tigers, and wild boars, will attack without provocation. A player who sleeps near such an animal may wake to find that they have been mauled and possibly killed because the animal wandered across their location.
Below is a table of all visible animals found to date.

Notes:
- "Frequency" is the number of times an animal attacks in a half-hour period.
- "Accuracy" is the animal's apparent attack accuracy rounded to the nearest 5%. This is lower when the target has animal affinity. (See the talk page for tabled statistics.)
- "Damage" is the damage dealt by one of the animal's attacks.
When you attack an animal you receive XP equal to the damage listed for the weapon you used. Killing an animal yields an additional bonus of (5 + max HP) / 2, rounded up, as listed in the "XP Bonus" column. (For example, if a monkey has 1 HP remaining when you kill it with a machete that deals 3 HP of damage, your action gives you 3 XP for the damage and 8 for the kill, totalling 11.)
Punching large animals
When missing a punch against an elephant, large stag, or tiger, special messages may display:
- You attack the elephant and miss. Suddenly attacking the elephant with your bare hands doesn't seem so clever!
- You attack the elephant and miss. Pausing a moment to reflect on this, tackling the elephant with your bare hands might be considered crazy!
Concealed animals
Sharks cannot be seen or attacked. They have a random chance to attack instantly when a player swims in deep water. A shark attack deals 2 HP damage, and the resulting wounds deal 1 HP damage per action (not per AP) until the player dies or is healed with a first aid kit or healing herb. Until a player is healed they will see "You are bleeding" below their map next to their name. The effects of shark wounds are not cumulative. A player bitten by a shark sees the following text:
- A shark attacks you for 2 damage. You're now wounded and need [first aid kits / healing herbs] to heal your wounds.
You lose 1 HP from an old wound. Use [first aid kits / healing herbs] to stop the bleeding before you die.
Poisonous snakes cannot be seen or attacked. A character who is searching grasslands can capture a poisonous snake, which then appears in inventory. Searching the grasslands can also cause you to get bitten by a snake for 3 HP damage (the snake then slithers away).
Crabs cannot be seen or attacked. A character who is searching beaches can capture a crab, which then appears in inventory, or be pinched by one for 1 HP damage. ("Searching the area, you find a crab. It nips your finger with its claws and scuttles away".)
