Ancestor:Descendants:

The Grasssnapper split from the Sandsnapper. They eat eggs just like its ancestor. They are now better adapted to the tall grasses of the savanna. Their legs have grown taller as well as their neck and eye-stalks to see over the grass since they cannot hear. Also since the neck is longer the 3rd pair of eyes as stayed behind on the shoulders so no it can see behind it and on both sides. Their sense of smell has improved and it can sniff out eggs from miles away. The back sail and tail have developed sharp spines to fend of predators. They can run very fast as well to escape predators and their snout has become more compact so it is less front heavy. It still depend upon water to lay its eggs so once a year all of the migrate to the river to mate and lay their frog-like eggs. Their scales still can change color and are used both for matting as well as hiding in the long grass.
