I'm curious if they ever removed any creatures from Rookgaard. I know in the past they removed my favorite Bug or Spider cave if I remember correctly it was in the Premium Area. But was there ever a creature they removed in Rookgaard, if so why (If possible to know)?

Why would you choose this answer for an specific question like this if it doesn't give you the answer for YOUR question? I mean, if the creature was only removed from the free account side of the island doesn't mean the creature was removed from Rookgaard as a whole. I think me and other guy gave out an answer more appropriate for what you were asking. Since you can't reach cockroaches anymore with any new character and from characters that are already there, there's no record that they can move to that specific part of the island

I picked his answer as best at the time because I already knew about the cockroaches so it wasn't anything new to me.  What he provided was new information to me so I felt like it was a great answer. But I see your point but I deem all answers incomplete because they don't contain a full list of removed creatures. So this is why I removed him from the best answer, I upped YOUR answer already in the past, but I already knew about it. But your right, I should review all my questions when I have time to see if they should be deemed best or not.

When the original discussion took place, I was already thinking about a creature that was replaced ... but laziness took all my time and I put that aside. Maybe now I can do that.

If you're able to make a complete list it will be awesome!

They didn't quite remove a creature from Rookgaard itself since its exactly the same it was back then, but they did "removed" a part of the tutorial that you had to go through caves with cockroaches, so they are not reachable anymore due to the implementation of Dawnport.

The only creatures removed from rook was the ones from old tutorial island : Cockroach

From a Free Account's point of view, chickens and orc spearman have been removed.
I explain:

  • Chickens

In the past, chickens were plentiful on the Free side, especially in the south of the temple.
Currently, they exist only in the premium area, and, as far as free accounts are concerned, they are only accessible if one accidentally crosses the premium bridge, which is rare without human interference.

  • Orc Spearman

In the past, there was an Orc Spearman running freely near the Wasp Tower, it was terrifying, hahaha. There was also a wasp on the ground floor that was removed.

Now, there are only Orc Spearman in the Orc Fortress, accessible only on The Rookie Guard Quest's last mission. This quest can only be started by players of level 5 or lower. This means that the island's old inhabitants (who kept themselves free account) never again fought with the mischievous orc.

Other monsters removed, let's see ... The maze that leads to "Mino Hell", you know? There used to be a Minotaur accompanied by two orcs. Today there is only one orc.

The reason for these removals seems clear to me: making the island safer (or less dangerous) for beginners.

Other changes in this regard include the vegetation wall that horizontally cuts the western side of the island ... This did not exist before the addition of The Rookie Guard Quest. The same goes for the mountains to the east of Hyacinth, there are many trees there, too bad.

You are ignoring a fundamental aspect of my answer: The perspective of a Free Account player.

Besides the Cockroaches- I'm assuming they also removed the Tarantulas then if the beginners island isn't accessible anymore in Rookgaard. If that's the case I think Fandom is outdated~ 

Tarantula After the summer update of 2008, tarantulas can be seen on the beginner's island of Rookgaard.

However based on this question you can still access the tutorial island if you have an old character there so in a way these creatures are still there... but not accessible to certain players: https://www.tibiaqa.com/9165/is-there-any-way-to-access-the-rook-tutorial-island?show=9165#q9165

Is it confirmed to work that way?
I had characters in the tutorial island right off the boat. But they were all teleported to the Rookgaard Temple.
