Line 23:
The '''whipskipper''' split from its ancestor and still inhabits [[Ichthy Swamp]]. Unlike its relatives, the whipskipper ventures onto land to get closer to its prey. Due to the energy needed to travel across land and carry out the energy-exhausting poison-making process, it has shrunk to half its original size. The whipskippers name comes from the whip-like tendril emanating from its head. This tendril used to be part of a fin, but it has evolved into a form of sensory perception. Clusters of taste buds resting on the whip allow the whipskipper to taste the air. This comes in handy when locating prey, or avoiding predators.
