Animals

**Animals** play the most important role in Mope.io, as they are what the game is about. Animals can be classified by the biome that they originate from: Ocean, Land, Desert, Arctic, Timberland and the Volcano. See individual sections for more in-depth explanations of the capabilities of animals in-game.

## Overview

As of now, there are 95 non-rare animals, 44 rare animals, and 6 AI Animals (145 in total). They form a food chain, where stronger, higher-tier animals (outlined red) are able to eat those below them (outlined lime green). Animals lower in the food chain can kill or damage animals higher in the food chain through the use of abilities or biting tails. Land animals above Rabbit, Arctic animals above Arctic Hare, Ocean animals above Crab, Birds above Pigeon, and Desert animals above the Desert Chipmunk all have a tail, which can be bitten by lower-level animals. Animals cannot eat or damage animals in the same tier (except for tiers 15 or higher through tail-biting); most animals also cannot eat animals more than about 5-8 tiers lower (depending on the animal); correspondingly, those animals cannot tail-bite animals in the higher tier.

## Features of Animals

### XP

*Main article: XP*
Each animal has an XP bar, which indicates its progress; how much food it has eaten, and how much more it will have to eat in order to upgrade to the next tier. The higher an animal is in the food chain, the more XP it needs to gain to upgrade to the next.

### Health Bar

*Main article: Health Bar*
Animals also have Health Bars, which will be lost if an animal is bitten by a predator, their tail is bitten by prey, or from environmental causes. Health bars naturally regenerate overtime; doing so even faster through the use of Healing Stones or Aloevera. Certain types of food such as Aloevera, seashells and Mushroom Bushes have health bars too. Unlike for animals, the food’s health bar will not regenerate at all. When animal loses health, its size will decrease slightly, even if it has a lot of XP.

### Abilities

*Main articles: Special Abilities and Passive Abilities*
Most animals have special abilities that can be used to escape or attack predators, capture prey, or collect food. They can be used offensively or defensively, but normally will have a certain re-charge time, and can be activated by pressing `W` or right click. There are also some animals with passive abilities; extra traits that are useful in surviving and upgrading faster. As the name implies, passive abilities are not offensive in nature, and can only affect the animal that has them.

## Different divisions

*Main article: Biomes*
It should be noted that animals will be counted as "Land" or "Ocean" dwelling if that is the biome they will spawn in upon upgrading and selecting them. Certain animals are able to survive outside of their given biome, but normally it comes with a catch, such as receiving damage overtime or draining water faster. Overall, most animals will have the best chance of surviving in whatever biome they spawn in.

### Land Animals

*Main article: Land*
Land animals can both live on land and in water. However, they are particularly slow in water, with the exception of a few, such as Crocodiles, Hippos, and Dragons. When a land or ocean animal enters the arctic, they will freeze periodically, taking damage and being stunned for a moment. The same applies with the Desert, except animals will be burned in there, with no stunning. Non-arctic/desert animals also lose water more quickly in the arctic. There are currently no non-Arctic animals that don't freeze in the Arctic, except the Tiger. However, there are a couple of Land animals that can survive in the desert without burning (e.g. Ostrich, Lion).

#### Forest Animals

*Main article: Forest*
The Forest, also known as Timberland, is technically a sub-biome within Land; all entities become smaller, and there are a lot more Trees present (due to this there are no hills either). Whilst any Land animal can spawn in this biome by pure chance, Tarsier, Chukar, Flying Lizard, Kakapo, Swinehoe, Raven, Turkey, and The Bigfoot have a 100% chance of spawning in it when selected, as they currently are the only animals that officially belong solely to the Forest biome. These animals have the same characteristics as other Land animals, although many cam climb trees.

#### Volcano Animals

*Main article: Volcano*
The Volcano is also a sub-biome, and is located in the center of the Land biome. Animals that belong to this area are characterised by their passive ability of being able to survive on lava, and feeding on it as their life source instead of water. Moreover, when pressing `S` as these animals, they will spit lava instead of water. Lava Toucans, Black Dragons, Phoenixes, Land Monsters, and King Dragons are a all of the Volcanic animals. While Dragons and Giant Scorpions happen to be able to survive on lava, they live on water and are thus not categorised as Volcano animals.

### Ocean Animals

*Main article: Ocean*
Ocean animals normally dwell in the oceans, (Located on both sides of the Map, both connected by two Rivers), but can also survive in lakes and water spots. On land, their "Water" runs out very quickly (with the exception of a few, which are Pelican, Turtle, Crab, Flamingo, King Crab and Sea Monster) and can easily dehydrate to death. As of a new update, ocean animals also burn on land. The ocean animals still have to surface for air like all other animals. They can dive until their oxygen bar runs out (excluding sea monster), when this does happen they automatically surface. While the diving feature is not only exclusive to Ocean animals, ocean animals are set apart by their ability to dive for extended periods of time compared to dry land-dwelling animals.

### Arctic Animals

*Main article: Arctic*
Arctic animals can survive in the Arctic biome, but most of them will periodically burn over time when being in any biome other than the Arctic. Most arctic animals have grip on ice, with some exceptions being the Snowy Owl and Arctic Fox. Other animals that do not have the aforementioned passive ability may also have the ability of sliding on ice. As of 2020, the only Arctic animals immune to land burning are the Sabertooth Tiger, The Yeti, Ice Monster, Wolverine and Markhor. These animals will burn when in a near radius to the Volcano; they used to also be immune to Desert burning but aren't as of the #GoldenAge update.

### Desert Animals

*Main article: Desert*
Desert Animals are essentially the warm counterparts of Arctic Animals. Unlike Arctic animals, all desert animals can survive in the Land biome without being periodically damaged. However, instead they will freeze overtime in intervals when in any water body that isn't in the Desert, as well as when in the Arctic. Certain Lava animals such as the Black Dragon and Phoenix can survive in the Desert without burning, and the Giant Scorpion can survive on lava without dying (as long as the Giant Scorpion can get water when needed).

## List of Common Animals

*Main article: Tiers*
Rare animals that are in the game are not listed here. If you are looking for rare animals, refer to the Species article.

## Trivia

* The first animals to be added to the game (besides the Mouse, Fox, and Lion) are, in the developer's words, the "Pig, Rabbit, Crocodile and Dino (Dragon)". These were added on October 6, 2016.
* On January 4, 2017, a change was made where Arctic Animals were 10% slower outside of the Arctic and Land Animals are 10% slower in the Arctic to promote animal usage in their respective biomes.

### Glitches

* In a now-patched glitch, upon upgrading to the next animal, for a second, players will turn green (the same color as prey).
* When a player upgrades to an Arctic animal from a Land animal, they will catch on fire with a notification of being in the wrong biome, but no actual damage will be inflicted (and vice versa).
