As the world of Pandora returns to theaters, we learn a bit more about the distinct creatures, old and new, that roam the gorgeous locations of the Avatar movies.
We kick off this list with the iconic banshee, the aerial ride used throughout the first movie by the Na’vi hunters and warriors. The subspecies we’ve seen on the big screen is the mountain banshee, but the smaller forest banshees were introduced in supplementary material and the simulator ride Flight of Passage.
While hammerheads have poor distance vision, they make up for that with acute hearing and an impressive sense of smell. Like many other Pandoran land creatures, they have six limbs which allow them to pivot rapidly and reach surprisingly high charging speeds.Direhorses are the go-to land rides used by the Na’vi warriors. Although they resemble Terran horses in appearance, their necks are longer, plus they have six legs and are roughly the size of an elephant.
The leonopteryx prefers to attack from above, feeding mainly on mountain and forest banshees. And unlike those flying creatures, it retains all six limbs commonly seen in Pandoran land animals. This fearsome, brightly-colored hypercarnivore has no known natural enemies.If the great leonopteryx is the king of the sky, then the thanator rules on land. Human xenobiologists believe it may be the apex land predator on Pandora, as it strikes fear into other large terrestrial carnivores.
Ilus have four eyes and two long neural whips extending from the temples. Their common coloration is a dark upper body with scattered colorful markings and a white underbelly. They’re intelligent and highly sociable among themselves and towards other species.Prominently seen in The Way of Water’s previews, the skimwing shares a common evolutionary ancestor with the banshee. As such, the Na’vi that live near the oceans use this animal for hunting larger prey.
