Whiskrugg

The Whiskrugg split from its ancestor the Grub Krugg. Like its ancestor it has a primitive body plan and leather-like chitin exoskeleton. Its strategy is to lay many snail-like eggs under the soil so predators cannot find them. While they live amongst other krugg species, most have filled other niches and feed on larger flora. It has gotten smaller in size which helps it hide under the leaf litter. Its signature feature are now whiskers that grow out of its mandibles. These whiskers help it feel around when forward while they can be pulled back when feeding. Since they don't have the greatest vision in the dark the whiskers help in the shadows or at night. It uses its front legs to clean them if they get dirty. It has also expanded its range to Vivus now that it is connected.
