The hoofbear plent split off from its ancestor. Unlike its ancestor, it has removed its predatory lifestyle and is instead a herbivore and a scavenger. Since its food sources are easier to find, it has become larger in size. However, this makes predators more attracted to it, so it has evolved longer legs, and purple and green stripes, which allow it to blend in with the spikeblades, quillblades, and savanna crystals. The hoofbear plent gets its name from the hooves on its toes.
In order to eat its food, the hoofbear plent has evolved large incisors and hindgut fermentation, which cut away vegetation. Then the food goes through its digestive system and is quickly fermented and processed in the intestines. This also helps the hoofbear plent be able to feed on small amounts of low-quality forage all day and still be capable of deriving nutrition from carrion.
In order to defend itself, it has its spikes, sharp teeth, and strong back legs that can kick. The hoofbear plent also lives in groups of 5-7 members, all consisting of females and offspring, while the males live by themselves. When female offspring grow up, they stay in the group. However, when males grow up, they are shunned from the group and go off to breed with other females. In order to get mates, males fight each other to prove which one is more fit. The one that is more fit stays to mate, while the loser goes off to find another group. Though the way to get a mate is different, the mating process is similar to its ancestor.
