>>5409515The presence of heavy metals has pushed the Lazy Feeder to the brink. Already under overwhelming pressure, the Shufflers now grazing a critical food source on top of competing to catch Lump Grazers and their distant cousins, the Ripple Tracker and Flounder Feeder, still devouring them at unsustainable rates, have come together to cause natural selection to shift the Lazy Feeder into speeding up their metabolism. Unfortunately, this was their primary protection from cancer and starvation and by shifting their paradigm, they’ve only set themselves directly against larger, fiercer species that have been refining a mobile predator lifestyle for untold millions of generations. It isn’t long before the last Lazy Feeder is consumed and the oldest remaining offshoot of the Flounder Feeders is rendered extinct.
