The '''woodland gossalizard''' split from its ancestor the rainforest gossalizard. It left the rainforest and spread to slightly drier ~~reasons~~. It is no longer nocturnal and not as quite as arboreal as its ancestor. While it can still hunt and climb in trees it also will hunt on the ground. It has developed an extra leg segment to help it walk and run better. it is an ambush predator that will set up web traps from its silk glads on either side of its jaw. When prey trips the threads it will run out and bite the prey. Their jaws are very strong and once they latch onto prey they rarely let go.

Since they are cold-blooded, they do not have to eat very often and can wait for up to an entire month without food. While they grow, they shed off their old exoskeleton and its is replaced by a new one. However, this new exoskeleton is soft and it will hide in a burrow until it hardens. They frequently sun themselves on rocks during the day to help them warm up.
