Slaesopagoes evolved from slaesosauruses that migrated to the Krakow Temperate Coast. There, the young had a higher chance of surviving, for they had no predators in the Krakow Temperate Coast biome.
Its back-fins still dissipate heat, but are insufficient for heat loss in a warmer environment. The slaesopago's pink facial patches act as a secondary means of heat dissipation. When the slaesopago is overheating, the pink patches are flushed with blood and exchange heat with the environment. In addition, the slaesopago has larger amounts of white coloration to reflect heat.
Like their ancestors, slaesopagos mate in a harem system on the beaches. Unlike their ancestors, they give birth in shallow water. The young swims off within a hour of birth, living independently from its mother. A newborn is 46 centimeters long at birth, and thus its diet consists of much smaller prey than those of the adults. Until it reaches about a meter in size, it stays in the Krakow Temperate Coast, eating mainly scuttlers with some larvabacks. After that, it requires more calories, necessitating larger prey. Prior to growing to about a meter in size, slaesopagoes have the juvenile trait of more slender bodies and smaller back fins.
The typical range of slaesopago prey items are 20 to 30 cm long. Adult slaesopagoes are eaten by blueback scylarians in the South LadyM Temperate Ocean (Sunlight Zone) biome.
