Jinchuriki: None
Shukaku (守鶴, Shukaku), more commonly known as the One-Tail (一尾, Ichibi), is one of the nine tailed beasts. It was last sealed within Gaara of Sunagakure, after being sealed in two other Jinchuriki before him
Shukaku first came into being in the waning days of the Sage of Six Paths, who used his Creation of All Things ability to separate the Ten-Tails' chakra from its body and divide it into nine separate constructs that would come to be known as Tailed Beasts in order to ensure that it would never resurface after his death. Some time after being created, the Sage sat down with all the young tailed beasts and told them that they would always be together, even when separated, and that one day they would become one entity again with different names and forms than they did. Then, when the time came, they would know what true power is.
Exclusive to Kumogakure but not owned, can be captured by anyone if willing to travel to Kumogakure and attempted to tame or defeat 
Jinchuriki: None 
Matatabi (又旅, Matatabi), more commonly known as the Two-Tails (ニ尾, Nibi), is one of the nine tailed beasts. It was last sealed within Yugito Nii of KumogakureLike Shukaku, many people believed that Matatabi was once a human that turned into a living ghost. Matatabi eventually fell into the possession of Kumogakure and was sealed within Yugito Nii when she was two years old. She was placed into a detestable training program in order to learn to control Matatabi's power. In the anime, Yugito agreed to have Nekobaa collect Matatabi's paw print for the Paw Encylopedia. In a cavern behind the Falls of Truth, where Jinchuriki learn to control their tailed beasts' power, there are wall murals of Matatabi and Gyuki, which indicates how long they were associated with the Land of Lightning.
Exclusive to Kirigakure but not owned, can be captured by anyone if willing to travel to Kirigakure and attempted to find it and tame or defeat it. 
Jinchuriki: None 
Isobu (磯撫, Isobu), more commonly known as the Three-Tails (三尾, Sanbi), is one of the nine tailed beasts. It was last sealed within Yagura of Kirigakure, after being sealed in Rin Nohara as part of Kirigakure's plan to attack Konohagakure. At some point in the past, Isobu, who was in the possession of Kirigakure, was sealed within a kidnapped Rin Nohara of Konohagakure. They plotted for Rin to be taken back to her village as a Trojan Horse, releasing the tailed beast to wreak havoc in Konoha. This failed, however, as Rin was fully aware of their schemes and opted to kill herself at hands of Kakashi before their objectives could come to fruition. Eventually, Isobu was revived and sealed within its next jinchūriki — Yagura, the Fourth Mizukage. However when Akatsuki went after it, the turtle was in the wild; the story behind how it came to be like this is still unknown. In the anime, Tsunade states that Isobu's disappearance happened after the Third Shinobi War.
Exclusive to Iwagakure but not owned, can be captured by anyone if willing to travel to Iwagakure and attempted to find it and tame or defeat it. 
Jinchuriki: None 
Son Goku (孫悟空, Son Goku), more commonly known as the Four-Tails (四尾, Yonbi), is one of the nine tailed beasts. It was last sealed within Roshi of Iwagakure. Son Gokū eventually fell into the possession of Iwagakure and was sealed into Rōshi over forty years before the Fourth Shinobi World War, who later left Iwagakure in a journey to gain a better understanding and control of the tailed beast. Son Gokū is a very prideful tailed beast, as it detests being called by the name "Four-Tails" and boasts about its lineage. It uses "ore" when referring to itself.
It also hated humans, due to the fact that humans had enslaved it, and believes that apes are more intelligent than humans. However, when talking about the Sage of the Six Paths, it showed him great respect. It also seems to have taken a liking to Naruto Uzumaki, as it was moved by his actions for truly trying to save it from being controlled by Tobi and even gave him some of its chakra before being sealed away. Son has a high amount of respect for those who respect the tailed beasts.
Exclusive to Iwagakure but not owned, can be captured by anyone if willing to travel to Iwagakure and attempted to find it and tame or defeat it. 
Jinchuriki: None 
Kokuo (穆王, Kokuo), more commonly known as the Five-Tails (五尾, Gobi), is one of the nine tailed beasts. It was last sealed within Han from Iwagakure. Kokuō eventually fell into the possession of Iwagakure and was sealed into Han, but was captured and extracted by Akatsuki. Kokuō seems to be a quiet and reserved individual. Though it does not speak much, Kokuō uses the rather old-fashioned "watakushi" (私) when referring to itself, causing it to come across as very polite.
Exclusive to Kirigakure but not owned, can be captured by anyone if willing to travel to Kirigakure and attempted to find it and tame or defeat it. 
Jinchuriki: None 
Saiken (犀犬, Saiken), more commonly known as the Six-Tails (六尾, Rokubi), is one of the nine tailed beasts. It was last sealed within Utakata of Kirigakure. Saiken eventually fell into the possession of Kirigakure and was sealed into Utakata. In the anime, it was revealed that at some point before his appearance, Utakata's master, Harusame, tried and failed to remove Saiken from within Utakata, intending to save his student from being a living weapon for his village. Utakata, however, having not heard what his master had said to him, later came under the assumption after the incident that his master had tried to kill him. This failed removal resulted in Utakata transforming into Saiken and killing Harusame.
Exclusive to Takigakure but not owned, can be captured by anyone if willing to travel to Takigakure and attempted to find it and tame or defeat it. 
Jinchuriki: None 
Chomei (重明, Chomei), more commonly known as the Seven-Tails (七尾, Nanabi), is one of the nine tailed beasts. It was last sealed within Fu from Takigakure. Chōmei eventually fell into the possession of Takigakure and was sealed into Fū, but was captured and extracted by Akatsuki. Chōmei seems to have a happy, go-lucky personality — which it seemingly shares with its jinchūriki as shown when it introduced itself to Naruto, referring to itself as "Lucky Seven Chomei" which might be an allusion to the fact that it has seven tails and the number seven having long been seen as a lucky as well as happy number.

Jinchuriki: None
Gyuki (牛鬼, Gyuki), more commonly known as the Eight-Tails (八尾, Hachibi), is one of the nine tailed beasts. It has been in the possession of Kumogakure for decades, where it has been sealed into many Jinchuriki. Its most recent jinchūriki, and the first to have any success in cooperating with it, is Killer B. Gyūki eventually fell into the possession of Kumogakure. However, its ferocity was so great that none of its former jinchūriki - such as Fukai, and his uncle and father before him - could control it. They would lose control and Gyūki would go on a rampage, destroying the village and killing many villagers, requiring the Third Raikage to form a special coalition to subdue and seal it in the Kohaku no Johei. During one of its rampages, the Third fought Gyūki one-on-one until the both collapsed from exhaustion. During another, Gyūki had one of its four horns lost to A, the offending horn having killed Motoi's Father. In the anime, Fukai's rampage was orchestrated Orochimaru, who gave Fukai genjutsu-inducing pills to draw out Gyūki. Due to the pills, Gyūki had no recollection of the rampage.

Jinchuriki: Misaki Hyuga.
Kurama (九喇嘛, Kurama), more commonly known as the Nine-Tails (九尾, Kyubi), is one of the nine tailed beasts. Centuries of being sought after as a tool for war and regarded as a monster that felt no emotions and deserved none in return caused Kurama to hate humanity. After being sealed into Naruot Uzumaki, Kurama attempts to maintain its negative opinions about the world, but with Naruto's insistence on treating it with respect, the fox overturns its hate and willingly strives to use its power for the world's salvation. Over the centuries, Kurama has gained a reputation as an age-old natural disaster, appearing suddenly out of nowhere to attack areas that have been breeding grounds for the darkest aspects of human nature. At one point during the time of the formation of the shinobi villages, the Gold and Silver Brother of Kumogakure were assigned to capture Kurama, but were both swallowed whole by the fox. However, the two brothers managed to survive and gain some of its power by eating the flesh of its stomach for two weeks, forcing Kurama to regurgitate them.
