esides the Skipper Skittler's prey and its competitors, the environment itself poses an extreme challenge to its survival.
The sand tides, pulled and push by the myriad of moons, burrows its fair share of beings. The abrasive sand itself grate the weak skins of the planet's delver, leaving wounds. Wounds leaking. Bringing the next major probleme : moisture.
Skipper Skittler's weak bodies have no efficient way of retaining water, and dessication is the most common cause of death on the plannet, shared with all the poor delvers.
Would a Skipper Skittler's feed itself enough to keep moisture, while avoiding both the mighty Mawchains and the choking Spinroots, the lurking species will die under roughly 64 terran days (or 118 locals) of the inevitable cancer provoked by the harsh sun, aggravated by the constant irritation of the rough sand.
