Animal is the language of the wild. It can take many forms, like a dog's barking, a snake's hissing or a bird's singing. Animal language is the "bridge" between for example Druids and nature. Important to realise about Animal language is that animals do not speak the Animal language; bats do not converse with salamanders! Bats talk to bats, salamanders with salamanders. Animal language means that a character is able to speak with and understand any animal.

Note also that Sylvan, the language of the fey, is not the same as the druidic language, though both allow communication with any animal.

Similar to the Sign language of Drow and Thieves cant, Animal language is not a full language and is limited to 25 characters.

There are no phrasebooks in the game that allow any characters not of these races or classes to learn animal language.
