The Gatorclaws are my favourite creature in Fallout 4, so the thumbnail already has me hyped. I honestly was sad to get rid of them all and wish that they'd included the ability to reprogram the machine to make a follower Gatorclaw. Probably requiring max intelligence or something, since their own creator was unable to control them. Also I think it was mentioned in the terminals or something that the scientist had heard of deathclaws from spying on wastelanders, and that's why he named them so similarly, though it's been a while since I was there so I could be misremembering. I think the genetic similarities are still a weird coincidence in the lore though.

even though they're called geckos, I might guess that they're mutated basilisks. real world basilisks, not the harry potter or witcher kind, look pretty similar, can have various shaped crests around their heads, can have spines or fins on their backs, and when escaping predators run on their rear legs... seems pretty spot on.

[@AJadedLizard]

They can also run on water, which would be a really cool mechanic to see in a game.

[@mrmime5928]

I was thinking of a frilled-neck lizard. They both have the frill and they run the same, but they’re only in Australia. It could be multiple types of lizards though.

To add some reason why Cait doesn't think fish really exist is when most nuclear material irradiates sea water the oxygen is forced out so there honestly are probably huge dead sea deserts on whatever route from we'll say the uk to America but it seems the seas are recovering super fast with fallout 4

[@onba7726]

About iguanas, they are currently a highly invasive animal in Florida. It stands to reason that after the war the population there could mutate and spread. I'd like to see more invasive species become endemic mutants since they already prove to be highly resilient. I'd especially like to mutant wild hogs. Their nickname down south is razorback, which sounds like an awesome mutant!

[@1heKing]

such an awesome name a WW2 submarine thats now a museum on the Arkansas Rivers named the USS Razorback. Source i visited it as a kid.

We have mongrel dogs, but surprisingly no mutated domestic cat enemies. It's surprising since cats seem to be more destructive as an invasive species than dogs

[@chriskuzianik9507]

There are iguanas aplenty in southern Florida, some are bigger than a large house cat. When it gets cold, like below 50F, they go into hibernation and fall out of the trees.

Fun fact about Gulpers: it's not just trees they'll hang from. I run a mod which causes monsters from the DLCs to spawn in the base game, and they'll also quite happily ambush you from power lines. Given the lack of fog in the Commonwealth, it's somewhat surreal to see them just hanging out in broad daylight.

Hey just wanted to mention because I didn’t see anyone else say it yet, but the far harbor dlc for fallout 4 takes place in Maine, not massachussetts where the main game takes place. Just a minor detail I noticed

[@Aven2334]

My headcannon for the tunnelers' orgin is that they started spawning shortly after the bombs fell. Maybe someone or a group of people who had sought shelter from the bombs discovered an underground canyon of sorts, lived there, some how got exposed to FEV and then the local fungus and mushrooms alike consumed their dead and evolved into the tunnelers after time.

[@queen_of_rats9589]

Snakes are also mentioned in fallout New Vegas, when visiting the great khans. One of them will have dialogue depending on whether your head is crippled I believe.

Crank up the Rads, sit back and burn some Chronic with a Radstag.

[@Thagomizer]

Newts can regenerate their limbs, eyes, hearts, jaws, tails, and pieces of their brains. Gulper regeneration is probably a reference to this. Gulpers may be descended from newts native to Maine, but they resemble Cryptobrachid salamanders, like the North American Hellbender and their larger relatives, the Giant Salamanders.

9:07 Toads don't exist Taxonomically. What we call toads aren't usually related to other toads and are actually related to other frogs than toads. The difference between toads and frogs are purely arbitrary and have no basis. We just call any frog which stays out of the water more often with rougher skin as toads. So it makes sense the American bull frog becomes the Rad Toad. Since the whole Toad thing is arbitrary and just semantics

[@bocktordaytona5656]

I have to say that the iguana things edit: (gulpers) from the island terrified me a lot and also the gigantic mantis stuff, wich is a shame that there was not that many... I mean: its clear that bethesda likes cosmic horror, its interesting that in the settlements of fallout 4 some times you have raids from several factions. Just imagine that same thing but in the island when the mist is dense (just like the book the mist) atracts hordes of those things and you are in the middle if that just hiding. I love that dlc but that would transform it even more into nightmare fuel.

[@follower4633]

Someone should make a fallout creature tier list based on how “realistic”they are, like if a nuclear fallout really happened what creatures would actually exist, high tier should be animals like rad rat or Yao guai and bottom tiers are stuff like giant bipedal geckos. Radiation mutated creatures only of course no FEV

The gatorclaw would’ve been a good enemy to add to a fallout set in New Orleans and the swampy bayou, or just give us the entire state of Louisiana

[@anthonycrisafulli9703]

I think for the tunnelers, I remember seeing terminals on lonesome road about these hippies who were against the nuclear cargo being held at the divide prewar, my thought is it possible being the fallout military holding these hippies in holding cells deep underground in the bunkers, Ik there’s not much evidence to suggest this but given the more human aspects of the tunnelers, their arms legs body, eyes mouth and even ears, all looking more human than a wasteland beast. Or it being possible they have ties to the prewar utilizes around hopeville

The closest real world comparison for Tunnelers - that I can think of - is the original depictions of Chupacabras. Before it became some type of vampiric canine, the original sightings were reptilian, vaguely humanoid, and often depicted as looking similar to Tunnelers. Chupacabra sightings only started in the late 80's, early 90's, and with the proximity of the Mojave to Mexico it's not that far of a leap to see where they could've originated. How they originated is still a mystery though.

Ive never played any Fallout Game (outside of 10 minutes on New Vegas) but I feel that it would be really nice to see maybe a DLC or new area which could focus on a large town ontop of the sea. Not like an oil rig, but more like Laketown from the Hobbit where most of the platforms and buildings are close to the water. Here they could focus on having submersibles and boats that could give fish and other aquatic organisms the spotlight. For example: Rad-Squids could use their tentacles to attack the player whilst on land, or break harbour docks during segmented events, or a reference to the large Blue Rad Whale that is mentioned by someone, with a large creature being spotted off in the distance. I feel not enough games give the ocean and other creatures enough credit.

[@Redinis]

About the Gatorclaw: Since Deathclaws were a pre-war thing, the doc would of known about them and could of named them similar, because they are. For the chameleon DNA, he might of known deathclaws used said DNA and could/would of used it again?

Loved the video! I'm originally from West Virginia & was elated as soon as I encountered gulpers in Far Harbor. "Awesome! They threw in mud puppies!", was my initial reaction. I kept one as a pet when I was a kid. Mud puppy, water dog, hellbender. They're the same creature. Seeing the creators of the game include more wacky wildlife is always more than welcome. Kudos on the water dog pun, by the way. Dad jokes are also always welcome.

[@Dualbladedscorpion7737]

[@dracorexion]

The iguanas are probably just the descendants of escaped pets/zoo animals that adapted to the various climates of the US without too much outward change. As for all the different gecko variants, each color-morph is probably from a different species, most likely from breeding populations kept by breeders or zoos. I have a friend in Utah who has several breeding pairs of just Leopard geckos, along with a few other breeds. As far snakes and fish: We've gotten Gatorclaws, now gimme Sharkclaws. A mudskipper/lungfish enemy that hides in marshlands or other wetlands would be cool. Hopefully we'll get a game that requires river travel by boat, and we can actually fish and catch some cool mutated species and maybe fight some sorta "demon" fish enemy/boss. Snakes I feel have less to give, really. Not much you can do to them that other games haven't already done. Aka, make them giant, maybe add some spikes or frills which really hamper snakes ability to fit into tight places, etc. Unless you mix in FEV and other animals to make the snake more fantastical, idk how one would implement them in a meaningful way into the game. Edit: Btw, Rad, I do love your videos, but I've noticed in some of your videos, especially this one, that you switch around methodologies and criteria when trying to answer the same question for different creatures/groups. The Anglers can be highly mutated species of frog fish despite their lures relying on scent but the Geckos can't just be mutated Leopard geckos that don't have footpads or the ability to blink because that mutation is too far? In evolution losing traits is much easier than gaining traits. Frogfish fins somehow mutating into fully fledged limbs with fingers and claws is gonna be much harder to explain than geckos becoming large apex predators where their footpads no longer provide enough support for them to climb. There's also the question of how far do you let the radiation of Fallout explain these mutations and what do you try to explain with natural, if accelerated, evolution? Like, one can certainly say that the Radtoads' multiple eyes, extra limbs, pronged tongues, etc can all be explained by radiation's affect on how they develop before the species became radiation resistant enough to stabilize and will now have to go through the long process of weeding out more detrimental traits. Same for the varied abilities of the Geckos. The final question to answer is do we trust the native people, who supposedly named these creatures, on the origins of these creatures. While the natives call the various morphs of Geckos, well, Geckos, their ability to run and the frills on their heads mirror frilled-neck lizards. While not native to the USA, frilled-neck lizards are popular pets and zoo animals, just like geckos. There are even reports about escaped lizards surviving in the deserts and scrublands of the Southwest particularly well. This extends to pretty much every other creature named after a real world animal in the games. Komodo Dragons, Radtoads, heck even Radroaches can be misnamed creatures because natives are comparing them to animals that existed pre-war. Komodo Dragons could be highly mutated Nile Monitors that are an invasive species in Florida right now. Radtoads, as you pointed out, can just be convergently mutated bullfrogs. And Radroaches might actually be a species of mutated beetle for all we know, though probably not.

[@1B1ueyedwo1f]

To me, Geckos bear a strong resemblance to the Axlotl, from the overall build to the frills on the side of the head. Another interesting note is that wild Axlotl have a coloration remarkably similar to the fire gecko, but mutations exist that give it silvery-grey and golden colors as well. Also, axlotls' natural habitat is in central mexico, so it could've migrated a bit north after Atom descended to bless the world.

[@virtualwastrel]

axolotls are unable to exist in the wild outside of the mexico city lake. The geckos are most likely basilisks (the real lizard, not magic beast)

[@Tanyamartinez666]

There were some that you missed sadly such as the mirelurk kings both fallout 3 and 4, lake lurks, ogua, jersey devil, (maybe nightstalkers if you count them?), lamprey floaters, and even some original unused designs of the scortch beast. Hope you cover them if you do a part 2 😊

At 5 : 52 you say that its wired that death claws and gadder claws have similar names but this is explained if you assume that the people of the waist land saw the similarities between the to creatures and decided to give them similar names, even if you argue that the pip boy also calls it a gadder claw this can be explained if you think that because the gadder claw is a post ware creation it had no name in the pip boy's so the player put its name as gadder claw in the pip boy's records.

You should make a video on how different fallout 76 would be if it was originally built as a single player game or changed into a single player game after it released

[@verti7900]

I think the Crested Gecko could be a possible candidate origin for the Fallout Geckos. The ear-like appendages may have been the crests around its head originally and evolved from the way they do in the game. They don’t blink either and have claws, but may have also gotten rid of their toepads to become more terrestrial. The only thing going against it is it comes from a more humid environment. It could also have been a Southern Banded Gecko which are endemic around the region, and all the weird extra bits are due to mutation.

[@MattnessLP]

About Radtoads, there is actually a toad species in Europe and North Africa called the Midwife Toad that carries their eggs on their back, very much like the Fallout counterpart. Since amphibian DNA is known to be quite malleable (with frogs being able to change gender if there are too few males or females in a population, also look at what they did in Jurassic Park), I could assume that Radtoads may be a mutated cross between the Appalachian-native Bullfrog and some Midwife Toads that may have been kept in a research facility, zoo or some private property. That would at least be more plausible than entirely unrelated Horseshoe Crabs and Blue Crabs cross-mutating into Mirelurks. You can also find Radtoads in the Mire. Big shock, I know, it being a swamp and all, but I built my C.A.M.P. at a small pond North of Berkeley Springs where 3-5 of them spawn, and my turrets are working overtime to protect my crops and my Junk extractor from them and their explosive eggs.
