Diet: Omnivore Danger Level: 11 Social Ability: 8 | |
The unusually low placement of the spiked tail is another evolutionary trait that helps when dealing with prey. By having it closer to the groin muscles, this creature is about to swing its weapon between its legs without worrying of accidentally hitting itself in the stomach or reproductive organs. The spiked tail rarely hits prey since it is designed as a surprised blockade. The aim of the weapon is to kick small chunks of dirt into any prey that will try to run through its legs to escape, causing it to run either back the way it came or to the sides where this creature can get to it slightly quicker than it would if it had to turn around.
It earns its omnivore diet due to the fact that young will eat only fruits and plant life until their teeth grow in five years after they are born. Offspring do not hunt for prey until they are fifteen years old when the bone chin has reached its ideal thickness. Until then, the parents bring the food it will eat back to their nest.
