The crystal cruncher replaced its ancestor, the wetland hoofbear in Slarti River and then spread north to Yokto Temperate Rainforest and Yokto Temperate Woodland. It has specialized to eat only crystal flora. Its waddle now forms 2 wooden spikes in which it uses to break into the hard protective layer of crystal flora. its skull also has formed a more hook like shape to help as well. Its feet have become larger to support its weight since it has grown to almost twice its ancestor's size.
Its butt-nostril has become longer to help when swimming. Its "leaves" also have gotten larger to absorb a bit more sunlight. However compared to its body size it is weak. Its coloring is that of its ancestor's river subspecies. Like its ancestor it lives in a small family consisting of a mother and her offspring. Males live by themselves but will fight over the right to mate with females in the early spring. Males fight by biting and jabbing each other with their wooden waddle spikes. They no longer grow knee spikes since they got in the way of walking much of the time. After mating, the male immediately leaves the female to raise its baby.
