Xatazelle

The xatazelle replaced its ancestor in the plains regions of Western Dixon. It has expanded its diet to include other types of glass and purple flora. They will go for larger purple flora if they can, though its not their most prefered food. They're skin is speckled purple and white to better match the surrounding terrain; sight-based predators can become disoriented by the unending waves of white and purple spots from large herds of xatazelle. Their armor has again grown over their back to help protect their otherwise frail bodies, with each segment loosely conected to the other in order to retain some flexability. They use purple and blue plate colors to communicate happy moods throughout the herd. The plates have striped patterns to help individuals identify eachother.

Their tail has become more of a leg to help them move faster across the long stretches of land. With the increase in speed they have had to sacrifice some agility, since the fewer but stronger tail muscles and bones are more specialized to provide frontwards movement. However, they can compensate by using their other legs to turn.

Individuals live for 7 years, with their mating behavior being similar to their ancestor.
