Caves are home to many animals. A troglobiont ('troglo' means cave or hole in Greek and 'bio' means life) is an organism that lives in a cave.
Some animals live only in caves - they are called troglobites (meaning 'cave dwellers'). These animals are adapted to life in the dark (they are often colorless and many cannot see at all) and they cannot survive outside the cave. Some examples include the blind Texas salamander, blind flatworms, eyeless shrimp, eyeless fish, cave beetles, cave crayfish, and some bristletails, isopods and copepods.
Some animals live in caves but also venture out of the cave to complete their life cycle - these animals are called trogloxenes (meaning 'cave guests'). Some trogloxenes include some bats (who only roost in caves), pack rats (who nest in caves), cave crickets (who feed outside the cave), flies and gnats.
Trogolophiles (meaning 'cave lovers') are animals who sometimes live in caves but also live elsewhere. Some Trogolophiles include cave crickets, cave beetles, salamanders, millipedes, snails, copepods, segmented worms, mites, spider, and daddy longlegs (harvestman).
Some animals only enter caves occasionally - these animals are called incidentals. Some incidentals include raccoons, frogs, and people
