Non-canon warning: This article or section contains information that may not be considered an official part of the Metroid series in the overall storyline by Nintendo.
At first glance, Metroids are just another species of aerial life-form. However, they have the ability to latch onto other creatures and absorb their life energy. Therefore, the Federation Bureau’s Special Investigation Corps established a Metroid research team, which began studying them.

—Introduction

The Special Investigations Group is a scientific division of the Galactic Federation. They are only mentioned in the introduction of Metroid: Zebes Invasion Order. The group created a research team for the purposes of studying the Metroids, parasitic creatures newly discovered on the planet SR388. They discovered from experiments on a dead Metroid that it could be brought back to life within 24 hours with heavy exposure to Beta-Rays. This Metroid annihilated the team and left their facility in ruin before it was destroyed by the entire 3rd Division of the Federation Space Army.
