Ancestor:Descendants:

Splitting from its ancestor, the sealyn has taken the first few steps into living the aquatic life. Larger than its ancestor, this species has already evolved several adaptions to life in the water. The prominent of these is the formation of thicker fatty layers for warmth as well as protection. Another adaption is the modification of its legs into a form better suited to an aquatic existence. Finally it has also modified its diet in order to take advantage of the fruiting glog's more primitive relatives.

Spending most of the time in the water, the sealyn only leaves it in order to mate and sleep on the land. It is rather awkward on the land, and would be easy prey if they didn't aggregate in great numbers in colonies along the shoreline. Few predators will dare to attack them in such great numbers, or else risk dozens upon dozens of bites.
