*[[Death Flies]]{{Fn|20}}
*[[Drakebat]]s — [[Ogryn]]-sized, winged, pseudo-reptiles that lurk amongst the upper canopy of the equatorial jungles of Catachan, descending from the treetops to ambush and devour unsuspecting prey.{{Fn|21}}
*'''Wild''' [[Grox]] — Although originally native to the [[Solomon]] system,{{Fn|2b}}, the animals are prized for their highly nutritious and tasty meat, and have been introduced to many worlds throughout the galaxy, so that the Grox is now the most ubiquitous livestock animal in the Imperium. Grox, however, are extremely ornery and virtually impossible to keep under control without some form of brain-implants or lobotomy. On Catachan they have become wild, and are deadly predators.{{Fn|18}}
*[[Heretic-Ant]]s — Named on the account that they always attack their prey's feet (or "Soles") first. One bite from these insects will put a fully grown man in the infirmary for a month, two bites will give them around a day to find treatment before dying, and three will simply kill them outright.{{Fn|20}}
*[[Shambling Mamorph]]s of the volcano lands are tough fighters and put up a good fight even against the Catachan Devil.{{Fn|18}}
