The wrecking-ball gulper replaced its ancestor, the ankephalo gulper on the mainland. There is still a population of ankephalo gulpers on Yokto Island. With so much competition it specified to eat the normally inedible rubric sticky-cube. The rubric sticky-cube is slow moving and digests whatever it can "ooze over"; well the wrecking-ball gulper bashes it to bits and eats up the sticky goo. Its tongue and digestive system are immune to the high acid content of the goo. The armor also helps to protect its skin.
It has grown even larger at 2 meters tall but is still dwarfed by the 10 meter rubric sticky-cube. Thus a small herd of them must bash one of the cubes to pieces. This actually helps the cube reproduce and it regrows from the ooze they do not eat. The wrecking-ball gulper will also defend itself with its wooden clubbed tail as well as fight for mates by bashing their clubs together, which is then followed with their skulls like their ancestor did. Its butt-nostril is actually located under a protective plate on the club tail. This keeps the goo from going into the nostril. They must hold their breath when using their tail clubs. Wrecking-ball gulpers mate for life and travel in small family groups of 4 to 8.
