What's your favourite animal in LOTR? There aren't enough dogs in Middle Earth, so my fave at the moment is the fox.

I think my favorite is Shadowfax. I love horses, and he is magnificent.

I am not completely sure Smeagol is an animal, but thats ok.

My fav is the oliphant. That's the coolest. And I also heard people say Haldir was a beast....

I suppose I like the eagles, but if there were others then I would choose dragons. Actually no, because I classify dragons as creatures, not animals.

I'm most fond of Asfaloth (in the book), the Rangers' horses, Bill the pony, and Fatty Lumpkin Also, of farmer Maggot's dogs ^ ^ In the movie, my fav would be Stybba, I loved that moment when he wouldn't budge in the Ride of the Rohirrim ^ ^

I must also admit to an odd fascination with Fell Beasts, and I'm afraid I just don't find the movie ones scary enough. A mutated featherless long-necked bird would creep me out more.

I've always had a strange thing for monsters - dragons, fell beasts, balrogs, etc... <3 But I also love eagles and horsies!

(my sister thinks I'm a freak for putting a heart next to the monsters... lol)
Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for thou art crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

Dragons and Balrogs don't count as they are maiar spirits dressed up. I don't think the fell beasts are but I'm not sure about the Great Eagles, messengers of Manwe. Anyone know?

The reason the fox is my fave is that it's the only animal in the LOTR whose thoughts we get to hear.

I don't think that dragons are spirits, but creatures. I think that they count. If so, Smaug is awesome

Balrogs were originally Maiar yes, but then they were corrupted by Morgoth. Dragons aren't Maiar exactly, as they were bred in Angband by Morgoth.

I was going to tell you GotPrecious that my friend likes the character Lurtz. We re-named him Kitty because she said his nose looks like the nose of a cat (lol)

Nobody's really sure where dragons came from so I guess they can be included. So fell beasts may have been bred from the same sort of worm/lizard thing. More on the fate of dragons in the Books forum.

Speaking of dragons, do any of you like the Eragon series?

Oh...I'd have to say, probably a horse. Maybe an Eagle. ^.^

I like the Eragon series, Legolas23, and I think Saphira is a beautiful and kind dragon. Not a nasty scaly thing!..lol...I guess my favourite animal in Middle-earth is the horse.
