Ancestor:Descendants:

The shellcrusher flunejaw split from its ancestor the goliath flunejaw. It has specialized in eating large Kuggs. Its huge jaws and front claws can rip and crush the exoskeletons of even the largest kruggs. While other flunejaws have strong jaws, they are weak in comparison shellcrusher flunejaws. While not as large as some of the other flunejaws it can still stand its own in confrontations. And in general since they are so specialized other funejaws seem to tolerate them with their territories.

Like theirs ancestors they will protect its young from other predators by guarding their nests and even when they hatch. They will form mating pairs who both care for the young for about a year. After that the off spring must survive on their own. To attract mates, males will make large mouth gapes. Those with the largest gaping jaws will get the female.
