Some animals that live in caves are bats, cave crawdads, fresh water shrimp.

The last two in fact are ina range of terrestrial and aquatic invertebrates that favour caves for at least some shelter, or indeed live all their lives underground.

There are three categories

1) Accidentals - surface dwelling animals that fall or are washed into caves, and most of these soon die if they can't escape.

2) Others such as bats especially, that use caves as roosts, hibernaculae and nurseries but hunt outside. Many bat species will fly from cave to cave as their needs dictate, since the conditions in one cave that are right for hibernating in, won't be suitable for rearing young.

There are also some animals that find the entrances of caves, still just in daylight, pleasant; e.g. by being shady, cool and humid; or just warm and stable enough for hibernating. Most of such creatures are insects.

3) True cave-dwellers that would soo die outside, or at least struggle to survive. Most of these are invertebrates, but there are also a few species of fish and salamanders adapted to entirely subterranean living.

There is also a S.E. Asian (I think Malaysian) species of snake that lives underground all the time, preying on bats.
