Ancestor:Descendants:

The sulfuric nobit has replaced its ancestor and also migrated to the South Tundra of Wright.

The sulfuric nobit originally evolved in the Blood Lava caves where natural pressures of many different predators led it to evolving many natural defense mechanisms in order to survive and not to rely solely on its fast breeding and many babies. First, its fur is much thicker and its body contains more fat, making it slightly more resistant to stabs or blows from its predators. It evolved two long horns on each side of its back from the back sails and has become much more aggressive. It has also grown slightly larger. They also now live in social groups, protecting each other from predators by sticking close together and even ramming it as a wave.

Its final defense mechanism has given it its name. The sulfuric nobit licks poisonous sulfur that the volcanoes in the area produce and stores it in its back nostrils. In times of danger it can release it as deadly yellow smog that suffocates the predator and distracts it while the nobit runs away.
