Description

Cimex comedenti innixae (Grounded bug eater), bio written by Pixie Blossom


The Skitterling is a close relative of the Pandabat, albeit much smaller, only 8cm in length. Skitterlings are adept climbers, filling the niches of squirrels almost but without the nut eating. They eat large amounts of insects and can be seen leaping from tree to tree using there powerful front arms to launch them, with there grappling front legs outstretch to grab on a branch. That is also how they hunt. Unlike the pandabats, who evolved to uset here powerful front arms to hang, the Skitterlings kept using there back legs to hang. They will usually be seen hanging low to the ground sometimes from a branch, and dig through some of the undergrowth, then once they get a prize retreat into the tree. But there feeding also spreads into the trees too, as many a species of small lizards live in the trees too which they hunt. Though they are also the prey to the Giant Chameleon. Because they are so fast the Chameleons evolved to be camoflauged, so the Skitterlings evolved to be camouflaged too. This meant they both needed to become good at discerning what was tree and what was not.
