"Animals" by Martin Garrix is featured on Just Dance 2016, Just Dance Now (for players who subscribed before April 9, 2024), and Just Dance+. The song was also featured on Just Dance Unlimited and 舞力无限, but was removed on August 1 and 2, 2024, respectively.
The song also has an Extreme Version.
Appearance of the Dancers[]
The routine is performed by two men who are both named Dualis. They both wear large helmets styled like motorcycle helmets and have magenta outlines.
P1[]
P1's helmet is mainly bright orange with a bright turquoise green lines, a pinkish magenta accent, and a Mohawk with one side purple and the other side black. He wears an indigo jacket with bright orange thick lines on the shoulders and purple lines on the front. The purple lines extends to the bottom and detaches from the jacket, looping on the hips like a chain. He also wears black jeans and bright turquoise green sneakers with magenta laces and black soles.
P2[]
P2's helmet is bright orange in one half and bright turquoise green on the other half and is decorated with black and magenta spikes on the top. He wears an indigo jacket with pairs of bright turquoise green thick lines on the chest and arms as well as purple lines, diagonal on the lower torso and straight on the lower arms. He also wears a pair of tight black shorts, indigo leggings, bright orange ankle socks, and bright turquoise green sneakers with magenta laces and black soles.
During specific parts of the routine, the dancers’ color scheme is altered depending on the song. Their dark blue elements turn silver, their purple and magenta elements turn dark silver and their skin turns black. In the second half of the chorus, whichever dancer is performing less vigorously will use the altered color scheme until it is their turn.
Background[]
The background is a tunnel that contains numerous switching colorful lights. The first set in the preview has purple stage lights with pink floor lights. Next, a long trail of blue lights swirl in the distance. After this, it duplicates on each dancers’ side.
Mashup[]
Animals has a Mashup with the theme of Club. It can be unlocked for 1000 Mojo Coins (or 20 Mojo Coins for the Wii). The Mashup is exclusive to eighth-generation consoles and Wii versions of Just Dance 2016. It features coaches dressed in club fashion.

Trivia[]
General[]
- The radio version of Animals, whereby the track is shortened by almost two minutes, is used in the game.
- "F**kin’" is censored.
- By percentage, Animals is the most censored song in the Just Dance franchise, since there are only eight words, two of which are censored, making it 25% censored.
- The word was already censored in the original song, but an additional warp has been added in the game to cover the rest of the word.
Classic[]
- Animals is the second routine to apply a slow motion effect on the coaches, after Love Me Again.
- The following errors can be seen on some pictograms:
- In two pictograms, a bit of the transparent part of P1’s right arm is hidden behind P2’s body.
- In another pictogram, a bit of the transparent part of P1’s left arm has been accidentally erased.
- In another pictogram, the right side of P1’s arrow has some black pixels.
- In another pictogram, P1’s body uses the Just Dance 2015 pictogram model, whereas P2’s uses the Just Dance 2016 model.
- P1 was teased on Facebook as a silhouette.
- In the official YouTube thumbnail, P1 has natural-tone skin.
- Animals had a different menu square in the E3 demo version of the game.
- Three unused pictograms can be found in the old Just Dance Now servers.
- P2 appears in the icon of Dance Party in Just Dance 2016, along with some other dancers from the game.
- P2 has a few additional counted moves on Just Dance Now which are only accounted for on the Xbox 360 and Xbox One versions of Just Dance 2016. The extra moves are when he slowly waves his arms while P1 is activated.
- The coaches return in RADICAL (Helmet Version).
- In the 7th-Gen version of Just Dance 2017 and every following game, there is a tutorial picture that shows a girl wearing P1's helmet, along with a boy wearing P4’s unicorn head from 4x4.
- An unused Rabbid avatar dressed as P1 can be found in the Just Dance World Cup archives.
- P2 appears in the background of Fire as part of the character selection screen.
- P1's epic avatar quote on Just Dance 2023 Edition, "Quaero ergo sum", is a wordplay on Cogito, ergo sum, which is René Descartes’s first principle.
- This is so far the only multi-coach routine where the coaches start positioned in the dead center of the stage.
- It is also the only routine where both coaches share the same name.
- The routine can be spotted in the background of Canned Heat.
Mashup[]
- The final Gold Move happens after the music has faded out. This makes Animals (Mashup) the first routine where a Gold Move happens after the song ends.
- Even though Joshua is the starting coach, menu assets for the Mashup shows Westley instead.
- This is because Joshua is also the starting dancer for Circus (Mashup).
- In the 7th-Gen version of the Mashup, an additional pictogram is featured before Feel So Right’s Gold Move.
