The shrew plague wiped out many different kinds of Shrew except for a select few. One of them was the river shrew. When all of the shrews in Flisch Savanna died out, some of the river shrews moved out onto the land and evolved into velishroots. Unlike its ancestor, the velishroot has a more varied diet ranging from stickyballs to batworms. The velishroot has also evolved bigger ears, which not only help it hear better but it also helps them keep cool. The velishroot has become significantly faster than its ancestor, which allows them to escape predators. Other changes include a better set of teeth, excellent eyesight, an immunity to batworm poison, and a stronger sense of smell.
The velishroot has also spread out into different biomes that include the temperate forest, savanna, and the swamp. They each have a different color for each biome. The one shown is a forest velishroot, but the ones on the savanna have reddish-brown fur with pink stripes and the swamp ones have orange fur and blue stripes.
Despite having many physical changes, the velishroot's behavior is quite similar to its ancestor. They still live in small groups, but they reduced to 5-8 members. They still live in deep and large burrows and play with each other. The pouch of the female velishroot can still seal up tightly when swimming or escaping a fire. They still continue to display sexual dimorphism.
