These Capybaras have a lot more fur than their counterparts in real life. They also have a middle part hairdo, which seems to cover most of their eyes. Other than lying around in the water, you will find them basking in the sunlight on the shores.

4 Violetgold Angler Gull

Location

Poisson

Region

Fontaine

The neck and the upper area are greyish blue, making it look noble as if it's wearing a tuxedo. The yellow lining on the wings is another highlighting feature.

The color scheme matches that of Navia, and so its befitting that this bird is found around her home in Poisson. As it is an angler, you will spot it near the waters, and the nearby fish stores in the vicinity.

3 Kitsune

Location

Konda Village

Region

Inazuma

Kitsune is a fox found in the Inazuma region and in abundance in Konda Village. It's a popular creature in Japanese Folklore and Genshin Impact took inspiration to design this sublime animal.

Kitsune looks like an average fox, except it's much more slender and long. It has an orange body with black fur around the edges to increase its appeal. These foxes are a part of the Inazuman lore and apparently belonged to Kitsune Saigu family. Due to the events that transpired, it lost its ability to speak.

2 Red Flamingo

Location

Toyac Springs

Region

Natlan

The Natlan region has a fair share of exotic and tropical animals considering that it's based on Brazil and Africa. The Red Flamingo has a striking red body as its name suggests. Its face also has an air of dignity to it as the bird has a serious expression.
