Fauna of The Celestial Islands

== Animals ==
The Celestial Islands, despite being a island nation is abundant in wildlife. Most to all mammals, however, are introduced. The native species are mainly birds, insects, reptiles, amphibians and fish, though some individuals like shrews and turtles are native to the island. Introduced mammals like polecats were made to control shrews and the introduced mice, hedgehog and rat population. The island is the only part of Parania that has no red foxes or red deer. Around 43-56% of the animals on the island are introduced from other countries and/or continents. The animals mainly adapt to the island’s many marshes, bogs, creeks, subtropical woodland, chaparral, deciduous woodland, or urban landscape. Most are urban wildlife.
