The river hornface split from its ancestor, the hornface. It now lives an amphibious lifestyle in Bone River. They spend much of their time wading in the rider eating pioneeroots and marbleflora. Their feet are webbed to help them swim. They also have a long tail-like butt-nostril that still has protective covering around it. This now helps keep water out and it can raise it up and out of the water like a snorkel when fully submerged.
Its 6 wooden horns have grown into a new configuration. While they can help dig up food in the mud they are primarily used by males to battler over females. Females have horns too but are much smaller. Juveniles do not grow their horns until they are adults so they must stick with the herd to avoid being eaten by predators.
Like their ancestors their use "butt-nostril" honking to communicate. This is important due to their poor vision. They live in herds of 25 to 50 individuals and spend most of the day grazing and sunning themselves on the shore. Most of the colony are females and juveniles with a "beachmaster" protecting the herd. Rival males will challenge the beachmaster regularly in hopes to take over the herd. Thus only the strongest most healthy male will get to mate with the females.
