The nightsnapper split from its ancestor, the vermisnapper. It has grown larger and now feeds upon large prey. It hunts at night and uses its 6 huge eyes to see. It specialized mostly on small prey like cragagons and barkbacks, but during the spring it will take advantage of picking of juveniles or eggs of many different species within its range. Now in a more wooded area it will make its nest in hollowed out trees. There the male and female take turns taking care of their chicks. While one sits in the nest the other hunts for food. Unlike their ancestor both the male and female are a dull brown color to help blend in with the brown bark of robust arid ferine tree. In regions like the alpine which do not have large trees they will seek out cliff-side nests. Aside from working with their mate to raise young, they are solitary creatures.
