Ancestor:Descendants:

The spotted sauceback split from its ancestor. When glacial saucebacks started to venture out into Barlowe Boreal, they found a home with better food and less competition than in the Barlowe Glacier. However, in order to adapt to its new environment, the spotted sauceback had to shrink in size, so that it is able to live off the available food. The spotted sauceback gets its name because it has evolved blue spots that help camouflage it amongst the glassflora. The spotted sauceback also lives in packs of 4-7 members that work together to hunt their prey, which includes duohorn bounder and carnofern grubnub young. Due to the fact that it lives in more moist areas, the spotted sauceback no longer needs to lay their eggs by the water because the larvae receive plenty of moisture in the air, which prevents them from dehydrating. Instead, the adult spotted saucebacks build nests by digging a small pit, laying their eggs in them, and covering it up with warm, decaying flora. While they are raising their larvae, the adults bring back pieces of flesh and glass flora to feed them. Once the larvae become juveniles, the adults help them with hunting until they are fully capable. Once this occurs, they are sent out to form packs of their own.
