Shrogsnapper

The shrogsnapper gets it's name from their primary hunting method. They have specialized to hunt seashrogs, which they will do by diving below seashrog rafts, and quickly breaching underneath the rafts in an attempt to cause the raft to capsize. They will then attempt to drown any organisms they find on the raft, be it a seashrog or a pirate waxface, or any medium to large organism found on it. To aid in this, their front teeth have become more front facing and deep set into their skulls and jaws, allowing them to act as a slice to cut thru the raft seams. Their skulls have zig-zagging sutures along the structure and spongiform structures to prevent as much trauma affecting the brain.

They breed in the early spring, and will return to the saltwater wetlands of the east central Dixon-Darwin to lay their eggs. Their breeding grounds have not spread far from the waterways of the BioCat-Huggs river system, as they are instinctually drawn to breed in the same location of their birth. They have however seen a subpopulation begin to lay their eggs in the BioCat swamplands. While this has the potential to cause a speciation event, breeding is done outside the wetlands in the coastal waters, so there is still signifigant cross exchange between the Huggs stock and the BioCat stock.

At first, the shrogsnapper was an offshoot population of their ancestor. The chumsnappers maintained themselves in the Huggs Salt Marsh and even had multiple crossbreeding events, as the shrogsnapper uses Huggs as a breeding ground. However as speciation became of overt and the shrogsnapper grew more robust, the remnant populations couldn't compete for breeding grounds. the male lineages of chumsnappers slowly were outcompeted by male shrogsnappers, until all pureblooded lineages became extinct, and with them the last chumsnappers were absorbed into the shrogsnapper genepool.
