Ancestor:Descendants:

The polar capispine split from its ancestor, the migrating capispine. It has gotten fatter and has doubled in size. Its stalker body allows for better heat conservation. Its back sails have gotten even smaller to help reduce heat loss. They will flash single bright colors since there is no room on them for complex patterns anymore. Their spines have grown even bigger to protect against the numerous polar predators. They still live in small herds that consist of 5-8 members. They will lay their eggs in highly insulated nest mounds that have massive amounts of floral matter to insulate it from the cold. The parents will take turns tending the eggs and regulating its temperature.
