Ancestor:Descendants:

The ramchin split from its ancestor, the xatazelle. It has moved to higher elevations in Dixon. There it found an abundance of fuzzy purple flora, which they mainly eat, however they also will feed on glass flora. They are quick and agile climbers who can escape more predators. They have a long sticky tongue that helps them bring food to their mouth. Males have a large curled chin-horn which they use to butt chins against each other. They do this to sort dominance and rights over mating with females. Females have a small chin-spike much like their ancestor.

Females lay their hard-shelled eggs in nests made from the fuzzy purple flora. This provide a soft and insulating nest. Females will guard the nest until they hatch and then bring back food to the young by regurgitating back per-chewed food to them. They have 3 to 4 offspring at a time. When the babies are old enough they will join the herd to graze with them.
