No Man's Land appears to utterly lack any native vegetation of its own, as evidenced by the fact that Meryl did not recognize things like flowers and trees when she was presented with them in ''Stampede''. However, the 1998 series shows that the soil can be made to grow vegetation with effort, either by traditional methods{{Storylink|LOVE&PEACE}} or with the help of a [[Plant|geoplant]].{{Storylink|LITTLE ARCADIA}} | No Man's Land appears to utterly lack any native vegetation of its own, as evidenced by the fact that Meryl did not recognize things like flowers and trees when she was presented with them in ''Stampede''.

There are also the toma/thomases, which are strange birdlike creatures used as pack and draft animals by the humans who've come to inhabit the planet. The 1998 series gives them claws, while the original manga gives them hooves. Stampede goes in its own direction by making them look like blue emus. | There are also the [[toma]]/[[thomases]], which are strange birdlike creatures used as pack and draft animals by the humans who've come to inhabit the planet.
