Animals & Pistols in CS2
![Animals & Pistols in CS2](/blog/content/images/size/w2000/2024/07/animals-and-pistols--1-.jpg)
Fauna refers to the animal life of a particular region, habitat, or time period. It encompasses all the diverse species of animals, from insects to mammals, found in a given area. Fauna plays a crucial role in ecosystems, contributing to biodiversity and often reflecting the health of their environment. Studying fauna helps scientists understand the interactions between species and their habitats, providing insights into broader ecological patterns and processes.
Now, enough with science and let’s talk about skins.
Counter-Strike had animal inspired skins since its dawn from back in 2013, specifically the SSG 08 | Blood in the Water, found within the CS:GO Weapon Case 2. Although the first Weapon case had a “Dragon” skin, those are nothing but mythical creatures; They just don't exist anywhere in nature, and there's nothing to suggest they ever did.
With that being said, let’s explore the fauna in CS2 skins. And like always you’ll find all the mentioned skins below at BitSkins marketplace where everything is cheaper.
Glock-18 | Umbral Rabbit
This skin was custom painted with a dreamlike scene of a mystical rabbit hopping before a full moon. Initially, the Glock-18 | Umbral Rabbit was submitted to the workshop within a collection of five different variants with different designs featuring the same animal.

Moonrabbit Peach was the original suggested name, alongside Sesame and Bready for the other variants. Moreover, the skin was added on 10 February 2023 as part of the Case, Capsule, Kit, Oh My! Update and Revolution Case.
The Restricted pistol, despite having an attractive design, only costs 1.50$ for a Factory New.
Another option for the default T side pistol is the Glock-18 | Weasel, a classic popular skin among players.
USP-S | Monster Mashup
USP-S | Monster Mashup was added to the game on December 3, 2020, as part of The Broken Fang Collection, which was released at the same time as the start of Operation Broken Fang.

The skin was created by NEXTGENZ, the creator of the AK-47 | Nightwish. The skin design features a cartoon style, with the pistol body adorned by a vibrant green monster resembling a crocodile. Yellow, pink, and blue accents complement the image, while green inscriptions "MONSTER" and "FIRE" are prominently displayed on the slide and handle.
The prices for this start from 17$ for the Battle-Scarred condition and almost 50$ for a Factory New.
If you prefer the other default CT pistol, then the P2000 | Scorpion will match the theme perfectly.
Desert Eagle | Fennec Fox
One of the most kawaii desert animals was illustrated with a beautiful Classified skin. Native to the deserts of North Africa, the Fennec is a symbol of many national treasures and countries.

Desert Eagle | Fennec Fox was added to the game on September 22, 2021, as part of the 2021 Mirage Collection, which was released alongside the start of Operation Riptide. By far, it’s one of the most expensive Desert Eagle skins at around 450$ in Battle-Scarred condition non-souvenir.
P250 | Bengal Tiger
The P250 | Bengal Tiger was introduced to the game on December 3, 2020, as part of The Havoc Collection during Operation Broken Fang. The pistol's design features a pattern that mimics the coloration of a Bengal tiger, incorporating shades of black, white, and orange.

Moreover, this skin is pattern based, and you can get almost all the different tiger colors such as the Strawberry tiger, white tiger and Bengal. Although there's a slight overpay on some of the tier one patterns, don't expect a significant jump in price since it's a niche skin.
This P250 is a pattern-based skin, with the most common pattern often featuring a white tiger instead of the rare orange pattern.
Tier 1: Highest quality, vibrant orange paint with minimal to no white spots (mainly on the handle).
Tier 2: More white areas, particularly on the handle and vertical lines of the rail. Tier 3: Skins with significant white spots and a mix of white and orange, not recommended for purchase.
If you choose this skin for your loadout, then the AUG | Bengal Tiger will be the cherry on top since it has the same characteristics as the pistol.
In conclusion, these fauna-inspired skins vividly animate the natural world in the game, giving a peek into various animal habitats. Moreover, this loadout stands out uniquely with a distinctive flair rarely found in others. For that, be sure to check out the remaining parts of the loadout on our blog.
