Animals
Besides the expected deer, bear, rabbits, owls, bats, hawks, geese, raccoons, wolves, and so on (not even mentioning the various domesticated beasts) found in forested areas, the Ramtops are home to many specialized animals.
The Lancre Reciprocating Fox- has a reddish-brown coat, with golden markings around its snout, and is about the size of a large domestic cat. Supposedly acts like a warrior about to go into battle and is known for its cry, which sounds like a lone walker falling off a cliff.
 
The Wowhawk or Lappet-Faced Worrier- small and shortsighted and preferrs to walk everywhere. Faints at the sight of blood. About twenty wowhawks could kill a pigeon, if it was a sick pigeon. Often falls asleep upside down.
 
Other Ramtops birds include: the Lancre Crowhawk and the Lancre Suicide Thrush
 
The Lancre Saddleback- best breeding pig on the Discworld.
 
Vermine- a more cautious relative of the leming, they only throw themselves over small peddles. Their pelts are much desired by the weathy as fashion accesories, though the greedy little buggers fight to hold on to it for themselves.
