Piña Leafshell

The piña leafshell split from its ancestor the horned leafshell. It has shrunk in size and feed on the yellowgrass and its descendants. They have a small beak for biting off the diminutive flora. Their coloring is yellow and purple to blend in with the yellowgrass. However this doesn't always work due to their bright green photosynthetic shells.

It has regained its thick layer of blubber to deal with the polar climate. Their beaks now have a tiny single horn growing out of it. Its has not much of a use anymore. Both males and females have horns however. They now spend more time in the water feeding on flora inside the water as well as on the riverbanks. They use their webbed feet to paddle as well as tiny flipper-like arms. Their butt-nostril can seal when going underwater.

They stay in small herds 15 to 30 members. They each have their own mate and will both help raising their offspring. They will even build a nest for the 5 to 10 offspring to stay in until they are old enough to leave the nest. Each nest is made of leaves and branches. The parents pre-chew the food for the babies and then regurgitate them up for them to eat.
