Eden

Eden is a moonless planet similar to the Earth. Its size is a little larger, its gravity a little stronger and the atmosphere somewhat thicker. Its day length is less than 16 hours, which is inconveniently short for humans, so the world became a colony for animals and plants with only a small human population. Two hundred years after settlement, tens of thousands of species of Terran animals and plants call Eden home. The different species of life are kept with others from their region of Earth, except on one continent where animals and plants from all regions of Earth are all mixed together.
