They are warm blooded and give birth to live young. The live young live in the pouch until they either have grown too big or they grow tail quills. However they will still nurse milk from the mother for up to a year after birth even if they cannot fit in the pouch. They are still quite social and will travel in large herds across the tundra. They must constantly keep moving in order to find enough food. They will sometimes travel with their relative the Scaleback Tamow in order to deter predators. |

The big-horned quilltail split from its ancestor the striped quilltail. It has returned to the tundra where it has re-adapted to the polar environment. It shaggy coat keeps it warms while its increased size and stubby limbs help it retain heat. its chin spikes have become large horns. Males use these horns to fight over mates by clashing horns.
They are now diurnal so they can stay warm during he day. They stay in large herd and will huddle together at night and during blizzards. They will keep their offspring in the center of the huddle to make sure its stays warm and away from predators like the Massive Snoa.
They are warm blooded and give birth to live young. The live young live in the pouch until they either have grown too big or they grow tail quills. However they will still nurse milk from the mother for up to a year after birth even if they cannot fit in the pouch. They are still quite social and will travel in large herds across the tundra. They must constantly keep moving in order to find enough food. They will sometimes travel with their relative the Scaleback Tamow in order to deter predators.
