>>5415704The Curve-Tail Trapper was never an elegant species but it was always stubborn. Where its distant cousin improved its nigh-immobile tail into a powerful limb that could handle the waters, the Curve-Tail Trapper’s ancestor, the Flat-Tail Crawler, refused and sank down to scour the rock. When its rivals grew too efficient to survive above the surface, the Flat-Tail Crawler rejected its instincts to dig and bury itself until evolution followed suit and its body with it. For countless generations, the Curve-Tail Trapper waited for food to come to it and when the starving times came and the Lump Grazers plummeted, the Curve-Tail Trapper refused to change its sedentary lifestyle. As hunger crept in, they slowed their metabolism in vain and took that much longer to starve. In the end, the final Curve-Tail Trapper dug its grave and chose to lie in it. The Curve-Tail Trappers are now extinct and soon to be forgotten.
