Ancestor:Descendants:

The crawling darbola split of from and is basically a supreme form of its ancestor the eye-tailed darbola. The crawling darbola increased in size and expanded their food-menu, they now eat almost anything they come across that is small enough to kill or swallow in one bite. In order to kill some of its tougher prey, like the xolagoba, the crawling darbola has maintained their ancestors ability to glide but their claws has gotten sharper and stronger so they can cut its prey to death. Unlike their ancestor, the crawling darbola cant sleep in trees or cave roofs because of their size so they have to sleep on the ground, they perfer to hide in shrubs. Their size also limited them to only gliding when hunting in order to save energy, so the rest of the time the crawling darbola must crawl, hence their name. As they now spend most their time on the ground the crawling darbola will eat almost anything moving on the ground, this gives them extra energy. The crawling darbola has adapted to the cold enviorment of Ittiz-Nuke Alpine and Ittiz-Nuke Boreal, this is possible because of the extra fat stored in the "shell" on their back for extra energy needed in hard times and the ability to warm up blood from the wings and send it into the body to prevent it from freezing. Other then these differences, the crawling darbola is exactly like its ancestor.
