>An Under Hunter rest on the top of a short ledge, a few time its size. The four-limbed male just set its stubbly leg where no other Hunter did before.
The <span class="mu-s">Under Hunter</span> legs are now stronger and pop less easily, allowing the Crack delver to capitalize better on its new Talon for fighting and climbing.
Your species can now properly capitalize on its Talons, and is no longer the weaker fighter of the ecosystem - dubious privilege of the <span class="mu-s">Ivy Glider</span> - and is on par with its <span class="mu-s">Scissor Hunter</span> cousin in term of fighting power.
However, the newfound mobility leads to its own subset of problem - problem finding its root in the unlucky awkward ear shape mutation.
The Under Hunter can now track the source of upward-coming noise, upward noise which is the most commonly heard with the up-pointing ear. This is not a good thing as they will often climb to new predator, herbivore they can't hunt, or plummet to their death on higher climbs.
However, this oppens the prospect of gobbling young <span class="mu-s">Ivy and Meaty Fatties</span>.
>Depth Crawler : 95
On their side, the Depth Crawlers doubled down on their pheromone range, as well as their neural ganglion, developing a previously unseen in the Crack social instinct.
In particular, they have now "Mating" and "Danger" pheromones, making them gang up on aggressors. Depth Crawlers scored win against every species - even Tripod, although only against freshly split pseudopod.
>Favorable Environment condition
The bio-luminescence provided by the light moss turned into a reliable source of light for the Rock Ivy, now colonizing even more vertical surfaces. In turn, more Herbivore are grazing, meaning <span class="mu-s">Depth Crawlers</span> are more sparsely spread, preventing them to ganging up too much on <span class="mu-s">Under Hunters</span> and <span class="mu-s">Scissor Hunters</span>
The aforementioned factors turn the current collapse of <span class="mu-s">Under Hunter</span>'s number into a slow trickle down. If nothing is done, extinction might become a risk once again but your precious species not in immediate risk.
Current Issue list :
- Predation from Tripods
- Predation from Meaty Fatties
- Quite low survivability of youth
- Akward Ear shape leads to missing preys
- Akward Ear shape leads to climbing to exhaustion
- Occasionally losing against Depth Crawlers
- Dying fom confrontation with Ivy Fatties
- Nose and Ear can lead right to stronger predators
- Sometime losing confrontation with Scissor Hunter
- no waste ejection (60 days)
- Relatively bad Vertical mobility
- Struggle to keep heat in when starved
- Ear membrane prone to tear
