The Slow Urhook replaced its ancestor. It now senses movement better with its magnetic organ, though it still has problems with the fact that its own back is filled with iron that sometimes throws the organ out of whack.

The Slow Urhook's back four limbs evolved a new joint on each, allowing them to be used better at slow walking rather than swimming. The front limbs, however, shortened and now are rarely used for other than swimming. The shortening of the front limbs meant that the Slow Urhook cannot hold its head above water, for its sheer size weigh too much on his back, so to compensate it is using the water pressure to hold its head's weight.

Hibernation now takes a while longer than before. Males will hibernate for 7 months, while females will for 9. This is due to the young taking longer to grow, though this species is smaller than its ancestor, because of its back limbs' new joints.
