The '''jongfoll''' is broader and heavier than its ancestor, the barkback. Therefore they are poor climbers, and are better at climbing when they are younger and lighter. Despite their disadvantages in climbing, they may still climb tubeplages to harvest fruits that are higher up.
As a mostly terrestrial creature, it acquires most of its food from the ground. With its thick fingers, it claws at the ground to expose eggs, roots, and soil-living organisms. Protective exoskeletons are usually not a problem for its thick wooden beak. (Bighorn Kruggs are an exception.) While the Monostage Dirteater is more difficult to eat than crunchy Kruggs, it's apparently a favored food of jongfolls. Jongfolls may spend several minutes gnawing at Monostage Dirteaters while sitting upright, bringing to mind a squirrel with a nut. They often eat their Monostage Dirteaters near a pool of water.
Line 35 ⟶ 32:
Jongfolls are eaten by the following organisms: Goliath Flunejaws, Robust Rainforest Ukjaws, and Plentshirshu. Of these, the Plentshirshu is its most common predator, as they both dig to acquire their food and Jongfolls may inadvertently use Plentshirshu burrows that are unfortunately not abandoned.
