Description "Morphology: Baby Caimoke. Newly hatched Stoke experiment. Aggressive, but not dangerously so; will likely rather escape than fight." — In-game scan

A sprite from my very old fangame that is currently more of an art project (because Nintendo will have your head if you develop fangames anymore), Metroid Trials.

This is a Baby Caimoke.  Initially found in observation tanks within the Science Labs in Chapter 2 (Desert World Tozect), they are bioengineered Stokes (see: Crocomire's species) created with the intent to develop them for acidic water conditions.  During Adus Lesk's (our protagonist) battle with indentured space hunter "Big Time" Brannigan in the region, Brannigan escapes with his life by blasting open the Caimoke enclosure and fleeing through the other side, ultimately releasing these little babies into the area.  They initially scatter, while one turns around and hisses at Lesk.  During this period, they are used a few times to point out hidden areas that Lesk must pass through to get out of the labs, eventually leading him back to the acidic lake of Skaldaun.  At this point they have swiftly matured into juveniles, which are actually dangerous.

Baby Caimokes can only damage the player via physical contact.
