The wattled leafshell split from its ancestor the leafshell. It has shrunk a little and has specialized in eating only the fruit of the shieldberry. Their beak is now better suited for eating fruit. It has lots of blubber to deal with the polar climate. Their photosynthetic shell has grown larger to absorb more light and protect it. Like their ancestor their skin too is photosynthetic which gives them a boost of energy during the day. |

They spend most of their time on land. However they frequently cross the river. Thus they use their webbed feet to paddle across. Their butt-nostril can seal up if they happen to go underwater They no longer migrate and spend all year in Ovi Polar River. |

They stay in small herds 10 to 15 members. The males grow a colorful wattle which they use to attract a mate. The fatter the waddle the more attractive they are to the females. They each have their own mate and will both help raising their offspring. They will even build a nest for the 5 to 10 offspring to stay in until they are old enough to leave the nest. Each nest is made of leaves and branches. The parents pre-chew the food for the babies and then regurgitate them up for them to eat. |
