QeynosCatacombs

A minotaur stands guard over one of the several aqueducts found throughout the catacombs.

QeynosCatacombs2

One of the many Bloodsaber shrines to Bertoxxulous found throughout The Crypt of Betrayal.

The primary form of wildlife in the catacombs are the usual underground denizens -- rats, snakes and insects. Various bats are also widespread through the various levels. One must also be cautious as rumors say that the Bloodsabers, once thought defunct, are now regrouping and using the catacombs as their headquarters.

Additional Notes

When questing in the catacombs, you may notice two unique symbols painted on many of the archways that line the tunnels. In The Down Below (and The Condemned Catacomb) Bristlebane's symbol can be clearly seen, while in Vermin's Snye and The Crypt of Betrayal a profile of Innoruuk is found . Strangely, neither of these deities were worshiped by the builders of the catacombs (dwarves, elves and humans) nor by the catacombs' current sentient inhabitants, The Bloodsabers (or the Necrosis Goblin Clan found in The Condemned Catacomb). The significance of Bristlebane's and Innoruuk's likeness in the Qeynos Catacombs is undetermined.

Bristlebane is the god of Halflings who currently have zero presence in the Qeynos Catacombs. Perhaps at some point a scheme involving Bristlebane or the halflings took place that involved The Down Below and The Condemmed Catacomb.

Innoruuk is the god of the Teir'Dal, who do have a presence in Vermin's Snye and The Crypt of Betrayal as some of the members of the Bloodsabers are dark elves. It is unlikely, however, that these dark elves would decorate the catacombs with images of Innoruuk since the Bloodsabers are devout worshipers of Bertoxxulous. According to lore, Innoruuk and Bertoxxulous have no particular relationship, so perhaps the paintings of Innoruuk are merely homely decorations designed to spruce up the aesthetic of the catacombs. As if catacombs need sprucing up...
