Ancestor:Descendants:

The snorkorn replaced its ancestor the quintacorn. It has gotten larger and fatter to help retain heat. Its hoofs are more paddle-like for swimming and its butt-nostril has gotten longer in order to breathe while feeding underwater. They have smaller spikes to reduce drag in the water when swimming. They also have a shorter neck and smaller ears to reduce heat loss.


They typically stay on land in small herds of 3-4 individuals. They breed twice a year and produce several offspring at a time which will stay with the herd until they're old enough to survive on their own. They no longer dig burrows and will huddle together to keep warm.
