The '''scrubland sauceback''' split from its ancestor for two reasons. Firstly, some [[Falsequill Sauceback|falsequills]] began to hunt at night more and use their trapping mechanism during the day less. These creatures found that they could get more energy from hunting than from using the usual trapping technique. Secondly, the two meter long saucebacks found that the nearby [[Huggs Scrub]] was full of prey and without any predators near their size. They have thus become the dominant predator in the scrubland, where they hunt at night and sleep most of the day. The packs of [[
The scrubland sauceback's spines have shortened, as they aren't needed to blend in with the ground. The sauceback's skin has darkened to better hide it when it hunts at night. The females of the species continue to lay their eggs underground and stay near them until they are ready to leave her and begin hunting on their own. When hunting is scarce the scrubland will dig for [[Shroom-Thief Plent|shroom-thief plents]].
