The hateech split from its ancestor and has become a predator that specializes in hunting and living in the deserts. With the success of the honker hoofplent, there was now a large new food supply for the hateech. To get their main food the hateech rely on team work even more than their ancestor. They may stalk a group of hoofplent for up to four hours until everything is right for an attack. When they first attack, the hateech do little more than trot around the group, keeping their distance so not to be picked. This tires the hoofplent. Working as a team the pack tries to drive some of the hoofplents uphill if possible. As the hoofplent slow because of tiredness, the hateech will use all their energy to leap onto the backs of the hoofplent. By attacking the rear of the hoofplent, the hateech target the butt nostrils and the area around it. Some of the pack will simply try and prevent the prey from running away by holding onto them with their front claws. Others will use their sabres to cut into the butt nostrils.
Hateech still show their sexual maturity through the outgrowths on their heads. They flush pink when maturity is reached and now turn bright red when the animal is ready to mate. Mating is the same as their ancestors and communication is still conveyed by their red sail. The have developed a simple way of communicating different messages. A hateech will raise and then lower its sail depending on what it wants other to know. The speed and frequency of these ‘flashes' could mean food, danger, greeting, aggression, enjoyment. Enjoyment is used to strengthen bonds after a hunt.
Hateech will also chase away and kill gringlos if they can as they are competition.
