[[folder:Skittersquid]]
->'''Wolfgang:''' ''"Wolfgang make friends with bright little fishies."''
Squid like creatures that prey on ocean fishes. They sometimes spawn around these schools to hunt them, and wander around while providing light with their bioluminescent eyeballs.

* BizarreAlienBiology: It looks more or less like a one eyed squid that can walk on land, but then it opens its mouth, which is on top of its head.
* HelpfulMook: They can provide light during nights, long as you don't provoke them. They also make for a good source of lightbulbs should the Caves not be enabled.

[[folder:Grass Gators]]
Half reptile, half plant critters that roam the waterlogged biomes out at sea.

Skitish creatures that can be found in swarms. Sometimes, planted grass tuffts will transform into them.

* {{Planimal}}: They're geckos made out of grass.

* CallASmeerpARabbit: Despite being called rabbits, they have horns like a Jackalope.

[[folder:Koalefant]]

->'''Warly:''' ''"You can't get attached to cute cuts of meat."''

A huge creature that can only be found through Suspicious Dirt piles.

* MetalSlime: It is hard to find and runs away from the player. Defeat it however and it rewards you with a lot of meat and a useful crafting ingredient to survive through winter.
* MixAndMatchCreatures: A broadly elephant-like beast with the fur, eyes and ear of a koala.
* PaletteSwap: It's red in spring, summer, and autumn, and turns blue in winter. This affects the vest that can be crafted from its trunk.
----

[[folder:Bees]]

->'''WX-78:''' ''"A MINDLESS DRONE. I LIKE HER."''

Creatures that collect pollen to make Honey. They can be found in Beehives, and also in player created Bee Boxes.

* BeeBeeGun: They can be weaponized to make Bee Mines.
* BigCreepyCrawlies: Much larger than real bees.
* ColourCodedForYourConvenience: Normal, not aggressive (unless provoked) Bees are yellow and black, while Killer Bees are [[RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver red and black]].
* FaceHeelTurn: They become aggressive during spring.
* ScaryStingingSwarm: Killer Bees will attack you on sight.

[[folder:Pengulls]]
[[quoteright:110:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/pengull.png]]

->'''Wilba:''' ''"'TIS BIRDIE O' FUNNY WADDLE!"''

Winter-exclusive neutral mobs. They spawn from the ocean to create a nest surrounded by ice near to the player's location.

* BanditMook: They will steal every piece of meat left unattended. They'll also steal any eggs lying around and start trying to hatch it as if its their own.
* TheFamilyThatSlaysTogether: Only if you attack them first (or if they are starting to die because winter is ending). If you try to attack one of them, they will come to get you ''[[OhCrap all together]]''. Weirdly averted in case you manage to steal their eggs.
* HelpfulMook: If you are lucky enough for them to spawn in a location where they won't try to damage your structures they can even be useful. Ice naturally spawns around their nests and you can mine it with no problem at all; and, when winter ends, they naturally die leaving behind black feathers, meat and eggs (thought it is more likely the last ones standing already eat most of the loot and that the rest of it is already spoiled beyond salvation by the time you find it.)
* OurZombiesAreDifferent: Like the Hounds, if the player is on the Lunar Island [[MalevolentMutilation Moonrock Pengulls]] will spawn instead. Moonrock Pengulls don't lay eggs and they attack all the nearby mobs.
* PintsizedPowerhouse: They're deceptively powerful and do 34 damage per hit, the same as a Beefalo. A flock can easily have eight to ten Pengulls at once so you're in for a bad surprise if you decide to try to attack these things unarmored.
* PolarPenguins: They were introduced in the game the same time the Winter season was added as a feature.

[[folder:Mandrake]]
[[quoteright:100:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mandrake_mob.png]]

->'''Wheeler:''' ''"Swell. I picked up an annoying sidekick."''

Living vegetables that hide in the day. If they're uprooted during the day, they die instantly but if uprooted at dusk or night, they will start hopping around and follow the player while making lots of noise.

* BrownNote: Trying to eat a Mandrake will result in it screaming, which will make any nearby mob who hears it fall asleep. If you try to cook a Mandrake on a flame, its screaming will knock the player out as well, skipping a whole day. Oddly, it won't scream if it's cooked into a soup with the crock pot.
* SidekickCreatureNuisance: They'll act as your followers when uprooted at night though they won't actually help you and will just make lots of noise. Almost every player character finds the Mandrakes extremely irritating when they're following them.

* OurZombiesAreDifferent: Like the Hounds, if the player is on the Lunar Island [[MalevolentMutilation Moonrock Pengulls]] will spawn instead. Moonrock Pengulls don't lie eggs and they attack all the nearby mobs.

[[folder:Blue Whale]]
[[quoteright:200:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/blue_whale.png]]

->'''WX-78:''' ''"SUBOPTIMAL SEROTONIN LEVELS DETECTED."''

Depressed whales that are only found by tracking Suspicious Bubbles in the ocean.

* {{Expy}}: Of Koalefants, as they represent the equivalent of them in Shipwrecked worlds.
* TheEeyore: Their sadness and complexion are often poked fun at by the other survivors.
* LudicrousGibs: Poking their carcass with a machete once it's rotted will cause it to explode in a rather gory fashion, dropping its loot in the process.
* MetalSlime: They're hard to find and run away. Unlike other examples, they're easy to catch up to and are more difficult to fight off by having a very hard hitting attack. Killing one however grants its carcass which will drop a lot of useful loot.
* VisualPun: It is a blue whale that is also blue in terms of sadness.
----

[[folder:Doydoy]]
[[quoteright:125:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/doydoy.png]]

->'''Wilson:''' ''"I feel oddly protective of this dumb bird."''

Near extinct birds to the point where only two spawn during world generation, each one on a separate island. The player must find both Doydoys and bring them together to successfully breed them and repopulate them.

* AppeaseTheVolcanoGod: Doydoys and their feathers are some of the most valuable objects that can be sacrificed to the volcano, delaying eruptions for up to two days.
* DoofyDodo: Played straight. Doydoys do not react whatsoever to potential predators or being attacked, allowing the player to easily kill them for feathers and meat. Unfortunately this means hostile mobs, such as snakes, eyeplants, and crocodogs, can easily wipe out entire populations of them. The different survivors also comment on their complete lack of intelligence when examining them.
* MatingDance: Right before they breed, one of the doydoys will start a mating dance before both of them will enter a BigBallOfViolence, leaving a nest and an egg inside to hatch.
* SuperDrowningSkills: Doydoys cannot swim whatsoever, and dropping one from your inventory onto the ocean will cause it to sink, killing it immediately without dropping anything.

[[folder:Water Beefalo]]
->'''Walani:''' ''"You smell like wet hair."''

Cousins of the land dwelling beefalo, these beasts live in the shallow Mangrove biomes of ''Shipwrecked''. Unlike land Beefalo, they can't be domesticated.

* UndergroundMonkey: Serve as the ''Shipwrecked'' replacement for Beefalo.

[[folder:BFB]]
[[quoteright:150:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bfb_head.png]]

->'''Wagstaff:''' ''"If I'm lucky I'll be swallowed and I can glimpse its extraordinary insides!"''

A big... flying bird. It appears periodically similar to Hound attacks and lands on open ground. It will abduct the player if it catches them and take them to their nest, the Pinnacle.

* AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever: Quite easily the largest monster in the series. Not even any of the bosses stand taller than its foot.
* BirdPoopGag: When it flies around, it may sometimes drop a gigantic dung pile on the ground, showing that the dung piles that you see in the beginning all came from this thing.
* GiantEqualsInvincible: You can't do anything to damage the thing. Just run away and pray it leaves.
* GiantFootOfStomping: You do not want to be under this thing when it's about to land on the ground. The only thing that can survive a direct hit from being crushed by one of its feet are boss monsters.
* KidnappingBirdOfPrey: It will abduct the player if it catches them. On its nest, its shown to have abducted a bunch of other stuff too including an entire house.
* NestedMouths: It has a head inside its mouth, which also has another head inside its mouth too.
* RocBirds: In the files, it is referred to as "roc".
* ShoutOut: Its name is a reference to Literature/TheBFG.
* TurtleIsland: It's large enough to have vegetation growing on its body. You can see roots dangling out of its plumage and wrapping around its legs, and there's an entire tree growing on its beak!

[[folder:Hippopotamoose]]
->'''Woodie:''' ''"Reminds me of something I saw in Algonquin Park once."''

Semiaquatic creatures that live in the Lily Pond Biomes of Hamlet, but also traverse on land.

* GroundPound: One of the Hippopotamoose's two attacks involves jumping towards its target to deal damage, uproots plants and destroying structures in its area of impact.
* ShockwaveStomp: Within the Lily Pond Biome they'll create waves by simply moving through the water, wih the waves becoming larger and more violent once they're actually chasing something.

[[AC:Introduced In ''Don't Starve Together'']]

[[folder:Grass Geckos]]
Skitish creatures that can be found in swarms. Sometimes, planted grass tuffts will transform into them.

* {{Planimal}}: They're geckos made out of grass.

[[folder:Grass Gators]]
Half reptile, half plant critters that roam the waterlogged biomes out at sea.

%%* GoddamnedBats: Pengulls spawn when the player happens to walk near to the ocean during winter with no warning at all, in a large group that will start walking towards a randomly generated iced area that will become their nest. If it happens far from the player's base, this is not a problem; if it happens near the player base, they might damage or destroy the player's structures to reach and settle their nest. Their habit of [[CombinationAttack retaliating together]] when one of them gets attacked makes it difficult to get rid of larger groups.

* TheFamilyThatSlaysTogether: Only if you attack them first (or if they are starting to die because winter is ending). If you try to attack one of them, they will come to get you ''[[OhCrap all together]]''. Weirdly adverted in case you manage to steal their eggs.

If it happens far from the player's base, this is not a problem; if it happens near to the player base, they might damage or destroy the player's structures to reach and settle their nest. And their habit to retaliate all together when one of them gets attacked makes it difficult to get rid of larger groups.
