| − | In [[SLASH'EM]], the monster glyph {{white|z}} is for [z]outhern or Australian animals, the zruty having been moved to the apelike {{white|Y}} monster class. Below is an overview of the monsters in this new class, all modeled mostly after real-world counterparts. All have a chance to be peaceful if you are [[neutral]], except for the Tasmanian devil.
| + | The '''zouthern animal''' is a [[monster class]] introduced in [[SLASH'EM]], and also appears in [[SlashTHEM]], [[SpliceHack]], and [[Hack'EM]]. It is represented by the lowercase [[z]] glyph ({{white|z}}). The zouthern animals are designated internally by the macro '''S_ZOUTHERN''', and represent mammals from the "zouthern" (southern) continent of Australia and nearby islands. |

| + | Zouthern animals are generally based on existing types of wildlife that inhabit the mainlands of Australia as well as its surrounding islands. |
| − | A koala poses no direct threat to [[you]], possessing no physically damaging attacks of any sort. However, its touch will 'calm', as in turn to peaceful, any monster (although some monsters may resist). It is thus a large threat to any pet, since a peaceful monster is no longer your pet, and some may be difficult to tame again, particularly [[polymorph|polymorphed]] pets. A pet koala, however, is very useful, since it can turn hostile monsters peaceful. They are somewhat slow and not overly strong, however. They can be tamed with, and will only eat, [[Eucalyptus leaf|eucalyptus leaves]].

| − | A Tasmanian devil can eat organic items and engulf non-organic ones, much in the manner of a [[gelatinous cube]]. This is likely a reference to [http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tasmanian_Devil_(Looney_Tunes) Taz] from Looney Tunes. Like most [[Monster (SLASH'EM)|SLASH'EM monsters]], it is somewhat more dangerous than vanilla monsters that appear at the same time.

| − | Kangaroos are quite a large threat through SLASH'EM's mid- and even late-game, since they hit very hard, are twice as fast as a player without [[speed]], and tend to appear in groups. Note that they have no [[magic resistance (monster)|magic resistance]], making [[sleep]] a very valid option against them.
