Animals
In RimWorld, animals roam the world free, minding their own business, eating plants and pacing back and forth. Apart from becoming mad and attacking any people on sight, animals can also be used as a source of food through preparing meals.
Growing food outdoors can sometimes attract animals inside your base perimeter.

Iguana
These large lizards normally feed on plant matter. However, when angered, their tough hide and sharp claws make them quite dangerous.
Resting iguanas hold their heads high, giving them an amusing 'proud' look. But they're not proud; they're just trying to see predators so they don't get eaten.

Summary
Iguanas have 95% Toxic Environment Resistance rendering them highly resistant to environmental effects such as rot stink and toxic buildup from non-attack sources.
Analysis
Other than being a meager source of food for desert and extreme desert starts, iguanas have very little niche.
They are the only omnivore in the desert / extreme desert. They'll eat any food they have access to, which is usually your own, so think of iguanas as desert rats. Like rats, tamed iguanas have a small niche as they can eat and dispose of corpses.
Training
This animal can be trained as follows:
| Guard: | |
|---|---|
| Attack: | |
| Rescue: | |
| Haul: |
*As of version 1.1.2610, all animals can be tamed. The percentage of likelihood of success depends on factors such as the Animals Wildness Percentage, Pawn Handling Skill, and others. More information can be found on the animals page.

Megascarab
A large, genetically-engineered beetle. Once the worker caste of an artificial ecosystem of insectoids designed to fight mechanoid invasions, it is now often seen without its deadlier insectoid cousins. Still, its size and hard shell make it dangerous when it attacks. A eusocial creature, it cannot reproduce individually.

Megascarabs are a type of Insectoid found in regular and extreme deserts, infestations or inside ancient shrines, including inside the caskets.
Summary
They are ground beetles of metallic color that posses elytra, a protective shell that provides some armor. Megascarabs are hazardous to hunt, for if they are injured by a human or a mechanoid, they will turn manhunter and attack any human or mechanoid on the map they can reach. If slain, they can be butchered for insect meat. Colonists dislike eating any insect meat, but meat-eating animals have no such problem.
All insectoids, including the animals, experience hypothermic slowdown instead of fatal hypothermia, have 100% Toxic Resistance, rendering them immune to toxic buildup from any source, and 80% Toxic Environment Resistance, rendering them resistant to environmental effects such as rot stink. They experience also pollution stimulus when in polluted terrain. See that page for full details.
Insectoids are incapable of sexual reproduction like other animals, due to their breeding type (EusocialInsect). Instead, wild insects reproduce via hives which create new insectoids periodically, up to a maximum value each hive can support. Tamed insectoids cannot reproduce at all. For more detail, see the Hive page.

Analysis
Combat
Megascarabs are the smallest and fastest of the 3 insectoid types, and will often catch up to colonists and "lock" them into melee. It may be wiser to focus on bigger targets, like megaspiders, as they are stronger in combat.
Melee block tactics work well against infestations in general. In an open field, kiting works well, as even megascarabs are slower than a healthy human.
Taming
Megascarabs offer no real niche as a tamed pet, however they can be tamed. Unlike the larger insects, they can generate non-hostile, and are found naturally in deserts.
