Remember when you were taught their names from a picture book? Woodland Creatures are a group of animals commonly associated with the forest. They are commonly used to symbolize the presence of Mother Nature. Expect to find them in a clearing in an Enchanted Forest. Although they are often several separate species, they will show great affection for each other and will rarely act or appear separately; in point of fact, it's common for species that would normally be predators and prey to appear side by side. A human being accepted into the group is almost always a sign of them being a Friend to All Living Things. The animals tend to be very shy and easily startled, but if a character is pure at heart, she will be allowed among them and they will even come to her aid. If they decide to take matters in their own hands then it will inevitably lead to a Gaia's Vengeance. They usually appear to have to some degree a shared consciousness, or may be a part of the forest's soul itself. The Egomaniac Hunter and the Corrupt Corporate Executive will constantly be on their tail and try to chase them away from their home. It will be required that a sympathetic human (usually a plucky kid, a female green activist and/or an initially cynical but ultimately friendly adult male) helps them. How the Carnivore Confusion is treated depends on the story: sometimes the two groups will make a truce against the common enemy; sometimes the carnivores are shown to be mindlessly aggressive brutes, in which case playing them against the humans will be the best option; oftentimes, meat-eaters and plant-eaters simply appear side-by-side with no tension and no mention of what anybody eats. Rarely, Predation Is Natural and accepted without much fuss. If they are the focus of the story, they might be Talking Animals (with the suggestion that they are using an "animal language" that each of them can understand), and they may form an Unusual Animal Alliance. Even if they have no acting role, they will make an appearance in stories with a Green Aesop. If this trope is subverted, they will become the Disney Creatures of the Farce. The group will almost always contain the following animals: A deer, which will be either an innocent fawn or a noble stag. One or two rabbits. A flock of small birds. A bunch of mice, squirrels or chipmunks (cute but often mischievous). with the additional talent of: The mischievous raccoon. The wise owl, or another Noble Bird of Prey. The gruff but noble badger. The flirty but smelly skunk (if it's a North American setting). The cool, but slow, turtle. The hard-working beaver. The fun-loving otter. The clever fox. The friendly bear (unless you mess with her cubs). The bumbling moose. The burrowing, often blind, mole (sometimes a gopher or groundhog). The noble wolf (unless you mess with his pups). Rarer members of these ensembles include ferrets/polecats, waterbirds (mostly ducks or geese), opossums, porcupines (or hedgehogs if it's a European setting), frogs, newts, snakes, wild boars, bats, quails and occasionally (if it's a Japanese setting) the mysterious Tanuki. Insects such as butterflies, ladybugs and bees may also join the company. They may sometimes be antagonized by certain predators (unless they are in the crew too, usually as Token Evil Teammates, Antiheroes or just gruff but ultimately decent characters), such as: An aggressive bear. A prowling wild cat, such as a lynx or cougar. A pack of savage wolves or cruel coyotes. A sneaky weasel or fox. A Brutal Bird of Prey. A malevolent horde of rats. Occasionally, if the setting is tropical, expect to see jungle creatures such as tropical birds, monkeys and apes, elephants, and big cats to accompany the person. See also: Animal Stereotypes. |

In the Adventure Time episode "Up A Tree", Finn is met by a porcupine and a squirrel, each of whom trying to stop him from climbing up a tree to retrieve a flying disc. He eventually finds out the animals are part of a creepy cult that keeps anything that winds up in the tree, shortly before being imprisoned by them. However, he manages to befriend the squirrel, who in turn helps him escape with the disc. | |

The Little Mole: The bulk of the cast consists of these. Beside the eponymous mole, there's a mouse, a hare and a hedgehog as his closest friends, a wise old owl who serves as a mentor, and a broad range of birds, frogs, insects and other animals as minor or background characters. In some shorts they are antagonized by a fox or weasels. | |

Redwall: The protagonists of the books are invariably this sort of creatures, albeit anthropomorphic — mice are the most common and the archetypal heroes, but squirrels, voles, rabbits, hares, shrews, otters, badgers and the like all appear quite often, as do numerous types of birds, all acting in accordance to the usual Animal Stereotypes. In contrast, rats and most other mustelids make up the bulk of the villains. | |

We Bare Bears: Charlie the sasquatch frequently makes friends with forest animals, especially snakes. The Bear Trio themselves could count, living together in a cave just outside the forest. Although since their species (grizzly, panda and polar bear) are out of place in the show's California settingnote grizzlies are now extinct in this state, they zigzag this trope. |

Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends: In the episode, "Camp Keep a Good Mac Down", both Herriman and Madame Foster become one with nature during the Horrible Camping Trip; the former reverting to a feral state among wild rabbits and the latter forming her own army of animals (including the bear and bees that previously attacked the campsite). They go back to their normal ways by the end, with Herriman rejecting the rabbits when they ask for a place to stay. They manage to steal his wallet and head to the mall with it. | |

The Animals of Farthing Wood, as the title implies, follows the adventures of a band comprising most of the small wildlife common in British woods — a fox, a badger, a pair of hedgehogs, a pair of newts, assorted birds and rodents, and an adder.

Dungeons & Dragons: The "Conjure Animals" spell lets the caster summon a number of animals (it's recommended the DM make the creatures in accordance with the environment), with the number increasing the weaker the creatures are. A high-level caster could in theory summon 24 squirrels, badgers, wolves, moles, etc. with a single spell. "Conjure Woodland Beings" instead summons The Fair Folk. | |

In the Pokémon games, most regions have at least one early-route forest where the majority of the Mons that appear are based on these sort of animals. They tend to be small, cute rodents (Rattata, Pikachu, Bidoof, etc.), songbirds (Pidgey, Spearow, Tailow), and the occasional hoofed mammal (Stantler, Deerling). The majority of them tend to be Normal-types. | |

The Fairly OddParents!: In the episode "Squirrely Puffs" where Timmy's dad and mom lead competing camping trips for respective expies of the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts, the latter (called the Creampuffs) are joined by singing woodland creatures. The Creampuffs eventually end up being trapped by a storm, and the animals refuse to stop singing, not to mention weaving poisonous berries into their hair; when they finally snap, the animals turn on them. In another episode, "Force of Nature", Timmy wishes that the animals living in a park were able to clean up the trash left by humans. The animals eventually become fed up with all the littering and seek revenge. |

Sonic the Hedgehog: The early installments revolved around Sonic stopping Dr. Robotnik from using woodland creatures to power his 'badniks'. These "Animal Friends" as they're called were Demoted to Extra as the games developed larger plots. In fact, most of the cast are woodland animals, with exceptions being Knuckles the Echidna, Blaze the Cat, Espio the Chameleon, and Vector the Crocodile. |

Winnie the Pooh: In the series, the "Living Toys" idea is much more ambiguous than in the books and movies, and Pooh and his friends largely appear as a mix of talking animals living and having adventures in an idyllic wood. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: Fluttershy's talent and passion is caring for animals, and she lives in a house full of her animal friends — squirrels, white mice, rabbits, ferrets, ducks and colorful songbirds are the most commonly seen, but goats, tropical birds, chipmunks, hedgehogs, raccoons, owls, skunks and Harry the bear have all shown up. Notably, Fluttershy's woodland critter collection also include some creatures which don't appear in this category terribly often — there's at least one spider among them, and snakes and bats appear with some regularity. More exotic animals like the occasional monkey also appear. The ponies in general, with their whole "custodians of nature" schtick, deal with woodland creatures on a regular basis, especially when it's time to change the seasons (for example, they tell the animals when to hibernate and when to wake up). This is actually related to one of the things that scares the ponies about the Everfree Forest; forget the fact that it's home to dangerous mythological beasts, perfectly ordinary woodland creatures go about their woodland business without the ponies telling them to! It ain't right! |

Happy Tree Friends: The cast mainly consists of forest animals - a rabbit, a moose, a chipmunk, a skunk, a squirrel, an anteater, a couple of beavers and raccoons, a mole, a porcupine, a deer, several bears, a marmot and a flying squirrel - along with a sea otter and a sheep. The show, however, is a gruesome subversion of what you'd expect. | |

Winnie the Pooh: While most main characters are Living Toys (plus a Token Human child), Rabbit, Owl and the minor characters referred to as "Rabbit's Friends and Relations" (including other rabbits, mice, a hedgehog, a squirrel, a newt and a handful of bugs) are living animals who qualify for this trope. The Disney adaptations leave the Friends and Relations out, but introduce the new character Gopher. | |

A few episodes of Wander over Yonder feature alien versions of woodland creatures. A notable example: in "The Breakfast", Wander feeds a group of these animals a loaf of bread he baked for a sleeping Sylvia. These same animals would later chase and attack Lord Hater when he tries to steal Sylvia's breakfast. | |

Drawn Together: Princess Clara (a parody of the Princess Classic) has the ability to summon woodland creatures to join her when she sings a song. This is exploited in the episode "Requiem for a Reality Show", after half the cast is denied food privileges after losing a contest. Spanky and Wooldoor eventually resort to tricking Clara into singing her song again so they can hunt the gathering animals for food. She then finds out that her singing also reanimates the animals' cooked remains, and kills the last of the critters so he won't tell the others. | |
