Description Disfigured Rats - Of all the creatures of this new world, rats are among the animals placed in the category of "Greater Mutants", creatures that have far more noticeable mutations and have ruminants of the nuclear fallout in their biology. A few of the various types of these sort of mutations include: 1) Elongated teeth that prevent the rat from eating any sort of food like how most members of the rodent family would, needing to resort to leaping up rotted or soft mushy foods. 2) Tail-faced Rats, as their name suggests, have their tails on their face that do not serve a proper function. 3) One face has excellent eyes and guntional mouth, but is completely deaf and lacks a sense of smell, while one has no mouth, terrible, practically none-existent eyesight, but excellent hearing and smelling ability. 4) Multiple eyes that the rat keeps closed as the visual input to the brain would cause great headache and cause the animal to be disfunctional and dizzy. Only for brief short periods does it open them to see above.  

Titadpole - Lurking in the murky and swampy ponds of this new world are the monstrous mutant variant of bullfrog tadpoles known as Titadpole. Growing to great proportions far exceeding their ancestors adult and immature stages. Are highly ravenous and cannibalistic, born in great numbers with many other litters of other individuals that have reproduced in the same pond. After the mating is complete, the male and female die. Leaving their young to the hands of fate. Their bodies attracting scavengers and any unfortunate enough to get too close become prey for the newborn offspring. Their strong hind legs used to haul themselves back into the water quickly as to not become the meal of other animals if they find themselves ashore. Slowly, their numbers reduce as the largest and fastest growing becomes the most dominant of the litter. The survivors of these cannibalistic behaviour hide in the shadows and are very skittish. Grabbing whatever scraps they can. Live a long life in their tadpole stage, usually not going through the metamorphosis until very late in their lives and reproduce. Traversing through the marshy jungle to find a mate, reproduce and die. Starting the cycle all over again. Despite their large size and big appetite, their gullet is only compatible with smaller sized foods and lack a strong bite power. If they do catch something bigger than they can swallow, usually they follow the crocodile method of ripping up food. 

Electric Whiptail - As a result of popular culture and media, sharks were unjustly persecuted during the Age of Humanity. Having survived four of Earth's five, previous mass extinctions, it seemed that humans were the one obstacle to their survival that sharks simply couldn't overcome. And so, when the bombs dropped and wiped much the slate clean, it wasn't surprising that some of the larger, more famous sharks left no descendants in the wake of their extinction. This did however, allow other shark species waiting in the wings to step in and take their place. Stretching an impressive fifteen feet from nose to tail, the Electric Whiptail is a species of shark that has descended from the zebra shark. With their ability to breath while lying motionless on the seabed thanks to powerful muscles in their throat, they were able to start spending more and more time in bodies of freshwater, granting them access to additional food sources until they had lost their reliance on saltwater to survive. Most of the Electric Whiptail's body is composed of its ten-foot long caudal fin, which it cracks like a whip in order to stun or even slice through prey, much like it's distant, extinct relative, the Thresher shark. As it's name implies however, that isn't the only trick up this shark's sleeve. Rather than sacrifice additional muscles for extra mobility, the Electric Whiptail repurposed some of them to produce electrical charges, not unlike the electric eel. By combining this with their long tail, they are able to wrap around their prey and produce a powerful, closed electrical circuit of of nearly 1200 volts. In this way, they have become almost completely unpalatable to the rest of their ecosystem's predators.

Scarlet Ghoul Monkey - With primates completely swept to the wayside, bats were able to step in and take over their niches in the world's ecosystem, rapidly radiating out into all kinds of species. While the majority maintained their carnivorous diets and would either continue to hunt insects or start hunting larger prey, a few species would take a more different approach to survival. The Scarlet Ghoul Monkey is one such species that has adapted to a more relaxed lifestyle than that of their hyperactive relatives. Rather than swing through the trees in pursuit of prey, they use their highly derived fingers and arms to reach for nutritious fruits and nuts. With teeth able to crack through even the toughest of shells, they have the longest arm span of any Ghoul Monkey, which has sequentially made them the largest, arboreal Ghoul Monkey. Spending all of their lives without ever touching the ground, they lead solitary lives to prevent competition for food, though males have been known to form bachelor parties.

Rabbitiger - A much more derived relative of the socially carnivorous Ravvit, the Rabbitiger has instead opted to live a solitary existence, which has allowed it grow many times bigger. Standing almost eight feet tall, their physiology has dramatically changed from that of their ancestors - their feet have adopted a digitigrade stance with larger, more slayed toes tipped with claws to support their weight; their forelimbs have become arms tipped with wicked claws; their ears have grown smaller, but more rounded, allowing them to pick up more minute sounds; their incisors have fused together to form a single, dagger-like tooth perfect for puncturing the skulls of their prey with one, swift bite. As their name suggests, they have adopted a striped pattern that allows them to better blend in with their surroundings, letting them sneak up prey with ease - horses, False Giraffe calves, ravvits, and even unwary humans are all considered prey to this bad bunny.

Amphibtitian - A caecilian, a member of the amphibion family, that has grown to the length of two school buses. Hangs out in shallow marshes and soft soil. Lunging out when prey is detected.
