Beast Shapes Table

As a Druid in Dungeons and Dragons 5e, you'll gain the ability to Wild Shape into a beast at 2nd level. This table shows the beasts from the Basic Rules you can transform into, their Challenge Rating, the level at which you can transform into them for both the base Druid class as well as the Circle of the Moon subclass and any special movement speeds.

You can also set your Druid's level and subclass in the filter section below to only show the beasts you can transform into.
