Now, when a pack of Flounder Feeders senses a Stomper, by its faint smell or with much higher regularity, the loud vibrations it makes by moving, they swim toward it, attempt to tear out a chunk of its flesh, and flee before they can be hit. Once out of range, the Flounder Feeders then consume their morsel and go back to do it again, ideally getting a larger piece from a weakened Stomper. All throughout, they do their best to stay above but the Stomper’s long stride and occasional tendency to let the waves lift it makes this an uncertain prospect. This is a semi-successful strategy that sees the Flounder Feeder’s instincts shift to hunting truly dangerous prey for the first time since the Ripple Trackers swam their last. Unluckily, the harsh sun hates life itself and irradiates the Flounder Feeder’s genome, causing a brief decline in starvation and a nasty spike of cancer and related autoimmune disease. Despite their evolutionary adaptations, the Flounder Feeder population drops.
