Slimepit

Splitting from gelbeasts that managed to cross the BioCat River, either by crossing it via a log or attached to another organism's back, they have diversified and evolved a sedentary lifestyle. Digging pits with the aid of their powerful digestive enzymes, they now typically live in one spot throughout their "lives", digesting anything organic that should fall into their pits or walk close enough that their vibrations can be felt and a pseudopod can then grab them.

They reproduce via mitosis, and after a colony reaches 1-3 meters in size tiny mini-colonies will bud off and then search for a new area to inhabit. Should food become less plentiful, a colony will break apart into dozens of 1-10 cm long fragments that will attempt to find a new place to live with new food sources. Should conditions become unfavorable for them, such as if the temperature becomes too hot or cold, colonies will enter a state of "hibernation" during which they appear to solidify and will not reactivate until conditions improve. Colonies will not break up if its rains and instead will excrete the water into the nearby soil, helping flora to grow which can then attract potential prey.

The microbes that make up the colony have mutated further and now four cells make up every cluster. Tiny specialized organelles have evolved in order to help transfer nutrients between cells with less energy wasted.
