Ancestor:Descendants:

The giant hornface has replaced its ancestor, the hornface, and have grown twice as large; this is from pressure from predators. Their vision has gotten slightly better. It has photosynthesis on its skin to help it gain energy quicker. Thus they are active during the day. Males will fight over females by clashing horns. This can sometimes be fatal if they are too rough. The horns also work well as a defense against predators. Like their ancestors, they use "butt-nostril" honking to communicate. This is important due to their poor vision. They live in social groups of 8 to 10 individuals and spend most of the day grazing on what little flora they can find.
