Line 12: Line 12:
On the levels ''[[Delta Halo (Level)|Delta Halo]]'', and ''[[Regret (Level)|Regret]]'', there are birds flying around in the sky, usually flying in circles or ovals. They are also in the ''Halo 3'' multiplayer maps ''[[Guardian]]'', and ''[[Epitaph]]'' where they can be examined more closely by using Flycam in Theater or Editor Mode in [[Forge]]. At first they seem like dinosaurs, but they are seen in ''[[High Charity]]'', so it is also possible that the [[Covenant]] brought "food". They are also seen on [[Installation 05]]. But then, if they are dinosaurs, the Covenant might have brought specimens to their holy city. It may never be known if they are dinosaurs or wildlife brought by the Covenant to use as hunting game. This could be confirmed by the existence of the supply ship complete with a hunting preserve, the ''[[Infinite Succor]]'' from the ''[[Halo Graphic Novel]]''.

Also, since it is known that Halo contains a vast multitude of terrains and environments, much like [[Earth]], it is possible that life has been developing on Halo over the 100,000 years that they have been dormant, such animals as the dino birds. Another reason why animals may not be seen is because they have the calcium store necessary for the [[Flood]] to infect, so the animals may have been destroyed by the guardians of the construct, and only avian-like animals are permitted to survive since it was mentioned that [[Drones]] do not have sufficient calcium mass to sustain the Flood.

Given their strong resemblance to trees found on Earth, it is entirely possible that the Forerunners intentionally transplanted flora from Earth to the Halo Installations, as an attempt to make them habitable and hospitable to their human inheritors.
