Twinecoat

The twinecoat split from its ancestor having found a richer food source on Artir Polar Beach. In order to catch faster prey it gained longer legs and a longer neck which it stretches to attack its prey from a further distance. It uses its tongue to grasp around larger prey and either strangle it with its grasper or toss it to the ground and the break its neck. With smaller prey it is able to swiftly pick them up and eat them.

During the snowsculptor janit's mating season they begin to hunt in packs often waiting for the young to hatch and the snatch them up and eat them or attack lone adults that have strayed from the others. Sometimes the twinecoat will pick up the young snowscluptor janits and then crush them under their foot before eating whatever is left.

In the mating season the alpha male gets first pick on a female. The males will try to impress the females by performing an elaborate dance which has the male rolling on its sides and the moving its feet across and behind itself following this the male will then head butt another male to show their strength. Females often prefer males with strength and mobility rather than those who are unable to provide. After the female makes the decision a small mound is built which the female will rest on for a period of 6 months until the offspring are born. Normally females produce 2-3 offspring per cycle and will defend these offspring until they are 2 years of age where they can either choose to stay with their parents or leave.

Packs of twinecoats form when the need for food increases. Often these packs are useful when hunting shortface sauceback which are hard to attack. The pack will surround its prey from all sides before moving in simultaneously and bringing it down. Packs also provide each other warmth at night by sleeping close to each other. Packs usually contain 4-6 members but rarely exceed this number and can grow up to 8-10 members per pack.
