The pigeon is a stout-bodied bird with a short neck and short, slender bill, belonging to the family Columbidae. Well-adapted to both natural environments and urban settings, pigeons feed primarily on seeds, grains, and fruits. Recognized as a global symbol of peace and love, these gentle birds are known for their exceptional navigation abilities, strong homing instincts, and distinctive cooing calls.

The dragonfly is a fast-flying insect belonging to the order Odonata, characteristically identified by its large compound eyes, elongated body, and two pairs of strong, transparent wings. Known for their exceptional aerial agility, dragonflies are skilled predators that feed on mosquitoes, midges, and small flying insects. Typically found near freshwater sources like ponds, rivers, and rice paddies, they serve as key bioindicators of a healthy, clean environment throughout Bali.

Butterflies are beautifully winged insects belonging to the order Lepidoptera. They undergo a complete metamorphosis, progressing through four distinct stages: egg, caterpillar (larva), chrysalis (pupa), and adult butterfly (imago). Renowned for their vibrant wing patterns formed by tiny, delicate scales, these insects are diurnal—active mainly during the day—and play a vital role as natural pollinators for flowering plants.

Lizards are scaled, cold-blooded reptiles characterized by long bodies, four agile legs, and typically a long tail that can detach as a defense mechanism against predators. Active during the day (diurnal), they bask in the sun to regulate their body temperature and feed primarily on insects, spiders, and small invertebrates. Agile and alert, lizards are a common sight darting through tropical gardens, stone walls, and natural landscapes across Bali, playing an important role in controlling local insect populations.

Tupai (Plantain Squirrel / Treeshrew) is a small, agile mammal commonly found in trees across Southeast Asia. It features a slender body, sharp claws for climbing, a pointed snout, and a bushy tail. Active mainly during the day (diurnal), its diet consists of fruits, seeds, small insects, and nectar. In Bali, it is locally known as Semal and is frequently spotted in coconut groves, tropical gardens, and lush forest areas.
