'''TFWiki.net: The Transformers Wiki''' has certain requirements for an animal to be listed here. There must be at least '''three unique toy molds''' (or in-fiction appearances, in the case of non-toy bodies/characters) that share the beast mode. There must also be at least '''one unique character per mold'''--a single character getting numerous revamps in similar bodies over the years would not count as a "popular mode."

When arriving on Earth, there are millions of animal species a Cybertronian might scan for an alternate mode. Some genera, however, are extremely popular with Cybertronians.

TFWiki.net: The Transformers Wiki has certain requirements for an animal to be listed here. There must be at least three unique toy molds (or in-fiction appearances, in the case of non-toy bodies/characters) that share the beast mode. There must also be at least one unique character per mold--a single character getting numerous revamps in similar bodies over the years would not count as a "popular mode."

Each mold is listed on its own line, with all different-character decoes/retools on the same line. The list is organized in chronological order of toy release.
