Get Tall for Animals Animal Tier List: Measured Power Rankings

Which Get Tall for Animals animals are best? Ranked by the power number shown when a hatched animal is placed at your house, with evidence and trade-offs.

The strongest animals in Get Tall for Animals, measured by the one number the game displays for every hatched companion, are the Megalodon shark at 400,000 power and, far behind it, the Mythic polar bear at 70,000. Everything else confirmed in the source session sits between roughly 582 and 1,600, and several popular animals can't be ranked at all because no power number was ever shown for them. Here is the full evidence-backed picture.

How this tier list was built

Power (พลัง) is the ranking objective here because it is the only attribute the game shows for every animal, and it is what the height gates ask about. You grow by eating at your house, then climb zones behind gates that were read at 100 (stage 2), 400 (the beach, stage 3), 1,000 (the mountain) and 6,500 (heaven) — so the power your companions contribute decides how far you can push upward.

The inclusion rule is simple: an animal gets a tier only if the session showed its power number. That number appears in a fixed loop — walk up to an animal on a zone so it chases you (sharks follow only in water and stop at the shore; you can never cross the red line), run it back to your house, place it, wait out the hatch timer, and read the พลัง value when it emerges. Where that read-out is missing, ambiguous or relative-only, the entry is listed below as unranked instead of guessed.

Two caveats from the same recorded session matter for how you read the numbers:

  • All values come from a single play session. Each figure is one observation, not a verified stat table, so treat them as that session's readings.
  • A house upgrade described as doubling power (one costing in the millions adds "another 1x") was mentioned, which means the same animal could read differently depending on the observer's house level.

For where each animal lives and how capture works, the Get Tall for Animals animal list keeps the neutral roster and acquisition details.

Measured animals, best to weakest

Power rankings

S

Megalodon shark (ปลาฉลาม / เมกาโลดอน)

400,000 power · Hatch: ~1 hour

Hatched from the shark-zone egg; players called the figure enormous ("ครึ่งล้าน" — half a million)

A

Mythic polar bear (หมีโพลา, "ระดับมิก")

70,000 power · Hatch: ~30 minutes

Special Mythic-rank egg

B

Dinosaur / T-Rex "George" (จอร์จ)

1,600 (read as 1,000 + another 600) power · Hatch: ~3 minutes (opened earlier than expected)

Explicitly the small-size variant (ขนาดตัวเล็ก)

B

Special giant jellyfish (เจลลี่ฟิ แบบพิเศษ)

≈1,600 (1,000 + 600; split ambiguous) power · Hatch: —

Largest egg of the session; weight read as 4 kg + 600 g

B

Jellyfish, normal (เจลลี่ฟิ)

1,300 power · Hatch: —

Read when placed at the house

C

Ostrich (นกกระจอกเทศ)

800 power · Hatch: —

Players said outright it gives less than the jellyfish

C

Llama (รามะ)

582 power · Hatch: ~3 minutes (a 25-second figure also appears in the same exchange)

Described as giving a lot of power

The parrot's read-out of 12 and the crab are deliberately absent from the tiers — see the unranked section for why.

What the tiers mean in practice

S — Megalodon shark (400,000). In a class of its own, roughly 5.7× the Mythic polar bear's reading. It demands patience: the shark-zone egg took about an hour to hatch.

A — Mythic polar bear (70,000). A clear second band, an order of magnitude above everything measured below it — and it is a variant. The ordinary polar bear was never measured, so the 70,000 belongs to the Mythic "ระดับมิก" form alone. Its special egg ran about 30 minutes.

B — the 1,300–1,600 mid band. Dinosaur "George" (1,600 as a small-size animal), the special giant jellyfish (≈1,600, with the ambiguous split noted above) and the normal jellyfish (1,300) are close enough that any of them clears the 1,000 mountain-gate figure comfortably. Note the pattern: the special jellyfish outranked its normal counterpart, so hunting special variants of unusual sizes pays off even inside one species.

C — under 1,000. The ostrich (800) and llama (582) are early-game helpers. The llama's ~3-minute egg makes it a fast first capture; the ostrich was explicitly called weaker than the jellyfish.

Time-to-hatch is the real trade-off at the top. The two biggest readings came from the longest timers (30–60 minutes), while quick eggs produced modest power: the giant rabbit's egg took about 1 minute, the llama about 3. If you are pushing a specific gate soon, a mid-band capture you can hatch now beats a top-tier egg that locks a companion away for an hour. The hatching process and the most useful upgrades — including the house upgrade that was described as doubling power — both feed into how fast your total climbs, and codes can help fund those upgrades.

One thing this list deliberately does not do is invent a rarity formula. Animals carry visible rank labels (Epic and Mythical/Legendary were named, and one fish was identified as Cosmic — "the rarest"), and variants clearly swing the number: the Mythic bear read 70,000 against mid readings of 1,300–1,600. But no rule was shown for how weight, size or rarity scales power, so variants are kept as separately labeled rows instead of pretending "Mythic = ×N."

Animals you won't find ranked — and why

These animals are confirmed to exist in the game but had no usable power read-out, so giving them a tier would be fabrication:

  • Mammoth (แมมอส) — its own ice-mountain floor is named after it, but it was never captured.
  • Lion and gorilla — seen on the heaven/sky zone; no readings.
  • Kangaroo — captured on the savanna; no power number was shown.
  • Stingray — found on the shark beach; no reading.
  • Goat and bat — present at one player's house where a 20,000 reading appeared, but that number was never attributed to a specific animal among the bat, jellyfish and goat there, so none of them can claim it.
  • Special super-rare dinosaur egg (กาโรดอน) — shown with a ~1-hour timer and never opened in the session. The players guessed it would be "แสน" (100,000), but that was an on-video guess, not a read-out.
  • Normal polar bear — only the Mythic variant was measured.
  • Koala — its power was explicitly left unread; the placement noted it as very heavy and giving money (a single figure of 217, with no rate context). That lone money number is not enough to rank cash generation either — that question belongs on the animal income page.
  • Giant rabbit — a "149 ต่อวินาที" (149 per second) read-out appeared right after placement, and it was described as giving a lot of power, but the attribution and unit are unclear, so it stays out of the table.
  • Parrot — a 12 read-out came immediately after the rabbit's "149 per second" placement, making it too ambiguous to tier.
  • Crab — bounded only from above: it gives less than the jellyfish (1,300), with one unsupported guess of "about a thousand" and no displayed number.

A ranking you can trust — until the game changes

This list ranks exactly what was measured, in one session, on one shared attribute. Balance changes or newly verified species will move these bands, so re-check after updates before making long-hatch commitments.
