44th Battle Training Zone

The 44th Battle Training Zone, also known as the Forest of Death is Konohagakure's largest training grounds and among the most dangerous in Konoha. It is often used as part of the second leg of the Chuunin Exam when it is held in Konoha, making potential chuunin use their survival skills.

Fauna
The Training Zone is home to a host of different creatures found from all around the continent. Most are deadly to some extent, but a few are not dangerous at all, at least to humans or humans trained in ninjutsu.

Invertebrates

 * Mangrove Leech
 * The Mangrove Leech is a species of giant leech found primarily in the Land of Waves, but can also be found in the Water Country, Fire Country, and Land of Rice Paddies. They swarm a prey item, usually a mammal, sucking it of all blood.


 * Fire Centipede
 * A gigantic centipede native to the fire country. Besides its great size, there is nothing especially unusual about it.


 * Bear Spider
 * A spider as large as a bear and twice as strong with its large front legs. Its fangs are deadly, but only because of size, not because of any sort of known venom. It is native to the Earth Country's crags.
