not in the sense of animals that organize their society in a communist style.

fashies have eagles, libertarians have snakes, what’s the communist animal?

    As far as I know: none. There’s no specific animal tied to communism or socialism, it’s usually symbols or people used instead in coat of arms, posters, icons/avatars, flags, etc. I’m sure there’s some socialist nations in the past that used certain animals in their symbols, but nothing universal between all socialist states, the only consistency or near universal symbolism between them is either the colour red, a star, or the hammer and sickle, these are the most common in socialist and communist symbolism. Hope this helped comrade.

      Wheat and other types of grain were another very popular type of socialist symbol besides the red or gold star and the hammer and sickle.

      Such as can be seen on this emblem:

      Or on the emblem on the flag of the GDR.
