Desert Stickyballs

At some point, the Freshwater Raftballs development took an odd turn.The decrease in the organisms ability to stick that began with the Raftball continued until the stickball was dry enough to spread to the savanna, and even to a place that its infamous ancestor,the Stickyball, couldn't go;the desert. You'll notice that the stickballs still keep a bit of the raftballs almost swarm like behavior in which the individual balls crowd together. Stickyballs are often scattered from their positions by the desert winds, which often causes large numbers of stickyballs to fall onto other patches. This is why there many low,rocky places that are filled with layers of dead or dying stickyballs, which make great places for scavengers and detritivores.
