Their large hooves are situated directly underneath their feet in order to avoid being stabbed by the pinprong's spikes. The chin spike has rotated forward to facilitate in digging up pinprongs, their upper lip has become more prehensile to grab the flora, and they have developed cheek pouches to help hold onto the food while chewing. Since xatabound's lineage has been feeding on shards of glass-like chitin for
Their tail-leg has become more muscular and assists more in locomotion. Normal walking involves the front 2 legs moving separate on the back 3 legs (in a similar way to a kangaroo). However, when startled a xatabound will use its tail-leg independently to launch itself forward (hence the name) before running. This is especially useful for evading near-collisions from predators, other xatabounds, or even as an offensive movement.
Individuals live for 5 years, gaining sexual maturity at the first year and breeding every 2 years. Herds still consist of 50-100 members. Newly mature males will fight each other for unaccompanied females, using their tail-leg lunge to attack with their front
