Snaialowe

The snaialowe split from its ancestor the painted leafhorn. It has grown twice as large and has undergone some dramatic adaptions. Its legs now have primitive cartilage bones inside to help support its weight. Its front legs are now flaps for primitive air-gills that help it breathe and gain more oxygen. Its shell now has many spines and a bright orange and black colors to ward off predators. While not as toxic as their ancestor they still have a mild neurotoxin. The toxin causes temporary nausea in small organisms, typically lasting a day or two.

They have expanded their diet to fruit and carrion as well. However their main diet still consists of dead and decaying flora and dung. Like their ancestor they are completly blind and depend mostly upon their very acute sense of smell. Their "smelling horns" are so sensitive that they have "3D smelling". By moving them they can hone in on where a scent is coming from. Eggs are laid in decaying matter so they can start eatting as soon as they hatch. The eggs are also covered with the same neurotoxin so scavengers will not eat them too.
