FASA 365 Day 117, Thorn Crested Loper. Omnivore, 15-30 ft. Lives in crags of rocky beaches.
Can swim, prefers not. Lazy? maybe but able to muster amazing short bursts of speed. Up to 45 kph.
Will eat algae, seaweed and other oceanic vegetation in a pinch. Prefers meat.
Hunts by slow lope, lulling its prey into false sense of security, and then springs forward suddenly.
Jaws are tremendously strong and LOCK onto its prey, Once locked, NOTHING has proven successful in getting the loper to release. Saliva is highly toxic and acidic, resulting in prey pulling themselves free, leaving whatever body part the loper has behind.
