This is the complete, definitive list of all 200 base animals in Slop Fighter, broken down by their eight Clades and how to find their Animatter. Hunting down every last one is the only way to unlock the blueprint for the legendary Genesis Animal and earn a shot at the Bio-Baron's Spire. This guide provides the full checklist, locations for the five legendary beasts, and strategies for efficient collection.
Your journey starts with a basic DNA Scanner and a beat-up Bio-Printer, but it ends with you commanding the most powerful creatures in the wasteland. The 200 base animal DNA samples, known as Animatter, are the key. You'll find them as drops from enemies, hidden in irradiated chests, and as rewards for completing the desperate requests of other Scrappers. Forget the infinite Chimera fusions for now; mastering the base 200 is the true mark of a veteran Slop Fighter.
How Animal Collection Works in Slop Fighter
Before you start the hunt, you need to understand the core mechanics. Collecting animals isn't about capturing them live; it's about recovering their genetic code.
- Animatter: These are glowing vials containing the DNA of a creature. They drop from specific enemies or are found in fixed locations. Your HUD will flicker when you're near a hidden one.
- DNA Scanner: This piece of kit automatically logs any Animatter you collect. Upgrading it with Scrap-King Grinner's schematics increases the drop rate of rarer samples.
- The Bio-Printer: Back at your safehouse, the Bio-Printer uses collected Animatter to synthesize a living Slop companion. Printing a creature consumes the initial Animatter sample, but once logged, you can reprint it anytime for a small cost in Slop Chow.
Animals are categorized by five rarity tiers, which dictate their base stats, ability slots, and the potency of their unique skills. Rarity is fixed; you cannot upgrade a Common Gutter Rat into a Rare one.
- Common (White): The backbone of any early-game team.
- Uncommon (Green): Offer more specialized skills.
- Rare (Blue): Often have powerful abilities that can define a strategy.
- Epic (Purple): Game-changing companions with devastating power.
- Legendary (Gold): The five ultimate animals, each tied to a lengthy and difficult side quest.
The Eight Clades of Animatter
The 200 animals are not just a random assortment; they are organized into eight "Clades" based on the biome they originated from before the world fell apart. Each Clade has a distinct fighting style and is primarily found within a specific region of the map. Knowing the Clade helps you predict what kind of fighter you're about to print.
For example, Warren Critters are fast but fragile, making them excellent glass cannons, while Glassed Coast dwellers often have high resistance to energy damage and corrosive status effects. Focusing on collecting a full Clade can unlock unique passive bonuses for your Scrapper, like improved resistance to that region's environmental hazards.

| Abyssal Horrors | 25 | The Flooded Under-City | Stealth, critical hits, fear effects |
Complete Animal List: Warren Critters (1-25)
This is the first Clade you'll encounter, found in the labyrinthine tunnels of the Sludge Warrens. They are characterized by their speed and pack tactics. Farming the early levels of the Warrens is the best way to gather Common Animatter for Slop Chow conversion.
| # | Animal Name | Rarity | Location / Drop Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Gutter Rat | Common | Starter animal; drops from all basic Warren enemies. |
| 2 | Sludge Roach | Common | Found near toxic waste pools. |
| 3 | Tunnel Spider | Common | Drops from Spider Nests. |
| ... | ... | ... | ... |
| 15 | Acid-Spitter Gecko | Uncommon | Common drop from Mutated Scav Bruisers. |
| ... | ... | ... | ... |
| 25 | Alpha Mole-Rat | Rare | Mini-boss of the Warren Depths, Sector Gamma. Respawn: 24h. |

Complete Animal List: Rust-Heap Scrappers (26-50)
Found scavenging the metallic mountains of Rust-Heap City, these creatures have adapted to the harsh, industrial environment. Many have metallic plating, granting them high physical defense, and use junk-based attacks to inflict debuffs like "Tetanus" (damage over time) or "Slowed."
| # | Animal Name | Rarity | Location / Drop Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| 26 | Scrap-Yard Dog | Common | Patrols the outer perimeter of Rust-Heap City. |
| 27 | Corroded Crow | Common | Found on rooftops and high ledges. |
| 28 | Tin-Can Crab | Common | Hides in piles of scrap metal. |
| ... | ... | ... | ... |
| 42 | Rebar Impaler | Uncommon | Drops from Corroded Drone ambushes. |

| 50 | The Tin-Can Tortoise | Rare | Reward for completing Pip's "A Sturdy Shell" questline. |
The Five Legendary Animals and How to Find Them
Simply finding all 195 Common to Epic animals is a massive task, but the final five require dedication. Each Legendary is a unique, powerful beast tied to a hidden, multi-stage side quest. You cannot find them as random drops. Starting their quests often requires having a specific Epic animal in your active party.
The Irradiated Behemoth
This colossal, glowing bear is a walking nuclear reactor, constantly emitting a damaging radioactive aura. To find it, you must first acquire the Epic Rad-Resistant Badger (#73) from the Irradiated Fields. With the badger in your party, travel to the epicenter of the Fields during an Acid Rainstorm. The badger will uncover a hidden bunker entrance. Inside, you'll need to solve a generator puzzle to disable the containment field holding the Behemoth. Defeat it in battle to claim its Animatter.

The Glass-Shard Shark
Dwelling in the waters off the Glassed Coast, this creature is made of razor-sharp obsidian. Its quest begins after you obtain the Epic Sonar-Bat (#124). Take the bat to the lighthouse on the coast and use its sonar ability on the strange signal coming from the depths. This reveals the location of three sunken buoys. Activating all three within five minutes summons the Glass-Shard Shark, a fast and deadly aquatic boss.
The Sky-Titan Condor
Ruling the skies above the Grand Chasm, this is the ultimate aerial companion. The quest requires the Epic Gale-Force Falcon (#170). Fly the falcon to the highest peak in the Chasm, known as the Talon's Perch. There, you'll find a series of wind puzzles that can only be solved with the falcon's "Updraft" ability. Completing them opens a path into the heart of the mountain, where the Sky-Titan Condor roosts.
The Obsidian Scorpion
This desert-dwelling legendary is found in the Sea of Shards, a hidden sub-region of the Irradiated Fields. You must have the Epic Dune-Worm (#74) in your party. Use its burrowing ability over the shimmering sands in the far east of the zone to uncover the entrance to the Sunken Temple. Navigate the temple's traps and defeat the three Scorpion Guardians to face the Obsidian Scorpion in its lair.
The Mnemonic Jellyfish
Perhaps the strangest of the five, this Abyssal Horror doesn't fight with force but with psychic attacks. Its quest is available only after you've collected at least 150 other animals. Take the Epic Lantern-Fish (#198) to the deepest part of the Flooded Under-City. Its light will reveal a series of ancient symbols on the walls. Activate them in the correct sequence (the sequence is found in the Bio-Baron's datalogs) to open a portal to the Mnemonic Jellyfish's domain.
Frequently Asked Questions
What happens when you collect all 200 animals?
Once your DNA Scanner has logged all 200 base animals, you'll receive a blueprint for the Genesis Animal at your Bio-Printer. This is a unique, customizable companion and the only creature strong enough to break the energy shield at the top of the Bio-Baron's Spire, triggering the final boss fight.
Can you miss any animals permanently?
No, there are no permanently missable animals in Slop Fighter. All regions can be revisited, and enemies will respawn. However, some Animatter samples are tied to rare-spawn enemies or specific world events (like Acid Rainstorms), so they can be very difficult to farm.
What's the fastest way to farm Common Animatter?
The first main mission area, the Sludge Warrens, is the most efficient. The density of low-level enemies is high, and they almost exclusively drop Common Animatter from the Warren Critters Clade. You can convert these excess samples into Slop Chow at the Bio-Printer.
Do Chimera fusions count towards the 200 animal total?
No. The "Chimera" system, which allows you to fuse two base animals into a hybrid, is separate from the collection goal. Your completion percentage on the main menu is tied strictly to the 200 base Animatter samples.
The Final Tally
Completing the animal list in Slop Fighter is a monumental achievement that tests your exploration, combat, and puzzle-solving skills. It's the game's true main quest, transforming you from a struggling Scrapper into a master of the wasteland's mutated ecosystem. With this guide, you have the roadmap. The rest is up to you. Good luck, Scrapper.
