As [[Maineiac]] expanded into [[Lamarck]], the island's biosphere has changed, with many new biomes appearing. However, many of them lack the landmass' signature small generalist group, the [[Pedesorms]]. It was only a matter of time before this diverse clade radiated further into uncharted territory. The '''firefighter pedesorm''' has colonized the new temperate biomes on the western side of the landmass, primarily inhabiting drier grasslands and scrublands. Their ancestry is of a mixture between the cavern and plains-dwelling [[Miner pedesorm|miner pedesorm]] subspecies, which spread into the bush and plains from the east. Without the usual cave flora or [[Dry Shrubite|dry shrubites]] to inhabit, this new population of pedesorms took on a new lifestyle in order to adapt to their new environment.

The firefighter pedesorm's only major physical change from its ancestor is its trunk-claw. The front of the claw is scythe-like, which it uses to cut down flora. The back of the claw is adze-like, which cuts into the soil and roots up the rootstock of the flora it is eating.
