| Another big clumsy species, far from the sharpest tool in the garden shed. But it's also about as laid-back as they come, and this combined with the 'big and cuddly' aspect seals the deal for many gardeners. |

| This early arrival is just my kind of Piņata: quiet, unassuming and in no way likely to put you in any physical danger. Of course, such a timid demeanour does make it vulnerable to all manner of predators. |

| Some people have a very clear predefined reaction to snakes of any description, but rest assured the Syrupent is almost entirely harmless. I mean, look at its face - it just wants a quiet life. Don't we all? |

Sort of an odd-looking beast, not built for speed and agility, so it's just as well that the island is free of busy roads. Still, it's
an amiable enough Piņata. Sensitive, too,
so try not to chortle at its wobbly gait. |

 |
| This foxy character has a bit of a reputation as a sneak and a menace, but it's not such a bad sort. There are certainly more demanding predators to have around than these bushy-tailed dusk-loving prowlers. |

 |
| A rather more exotic species than the likes of the Whirlm, the Mousemallow or even the Syrupent from which it originates. It also has a doubly touchy nature, and is well known for arguing amongst itself. |
