Rahi

Rahi are the wildlife of the Matoran Universe, the term literally meaning "not us". Most were created by Makuta, but some were created by the Great Beings and others. There are a large variety of Rahi. Rahi, like most creatures in the Matoran Universe were biomechanical. The term "Rahi" only applies to creatures that were created to live within the Matoran Universe and not creatures living on parts of Spherus Magna.

What exactly makes a creature a Rahi is not completely clear. Some Rahi, like Keetongu are almost sapient, and some Rahi, like the Tahtorak can even speak Matoran. It is possible that something is considered a Rahi based on whether it exhibits traits typically associated with wildlife, like territorial behavior, etc. Rahkshi and Bohrok aren't considered Rahi because they are mechanical shells controlled by an organic Kraata or Krana respectively, as opposed to having having mechanical parts and organic organs, like most Rahi.

On Metru Nui, many Rahi were placed on exhibit in the Archives of Onu-Metru. Upon the corruption of the Brotherhood of Makuta, they started creating Rahi to meet their own needs, as opposed to those of the universe. On Mata Nui, the Rahi were placed under the control of Teridax through the usage of Infected Masks.

Many Rahi evacuated the Matoran Universe upon the defeat of Teridax and are now living upon the reunited Spherus Magna.
