Noroobit

The noroobit has replaced it's ancestor in the Huggs Temperate Rainforest. It has doubled in size and evolved an upright posture. The have lost the ability to climb and swim but can now hop twice the height of their bodies. They evolved the abilities to stand upright and hop to grab fruits off of the native plants. If they can't reach the fruit they will ether wait until they fall or they will knaw at the plant until if falls down. To allow this, nature has also granted the noroobit with a extremely powerful bite. Noroobit's are very social. They live in simple families within a large herd of 2 - 7 mating pairs. A group of noroobits is called a "feld." Females of the group that are not paired up and the elders will help raise the offspring of others. The group is allways lead by a dominate couple. Every spring, noroobit males within the group fight to see who will lead. Noroobits produce about 10-12 babies a year, but most don't survive past a year.
