Ancestor:Descendants:


The inferno fartblaster replaced its ancestor on Jaydoh Savanna Island. Like its ancestor, it produces hydroquinone in one blaster and hydrogen peroxide in the other, combining them to create fire. However, unlike its ancestor it uses this as an offensive weapon instead of a defensive speed boost; because of this, it has become slower. Now it will first fire a stream of hydrogen peroxide (with peroxidase) into the air, follow promptly with hydroquinone (with catalase). The hydrogen peroxide and hydroquinone break down quickly (with the help of the 2 enzymes mentioned) into quinone, oxygen and water, and greatly increase the surrounding temperature. The free oxygen quickly ignites, and the result is a great fiery flare. This not only can scare predators away, but can also burn and/or cook flora and fauna, thus the inferno fartblaster has adapted its diet to include them.

The muscles at the base of its blasters have increased in complexity, allowing it to aim its blasters forward or backward; they also have to hold their breath when blowing fire or else they would suffocate from osmosis. The skin on its back now has thick insulating fat, protecting it from burns. Its ears have this "fat-armour" as well, they have grown larger and form a shell on its back; they have stronger muscles to lift up their ears to hear, but they mostly just keep them resting on its back. It has grown considerably through island gigantism. Though it still produces many offspring it reproduces fewer times.
