Description:
These wild little critters are much smaller relatives of the common riding Snorse! Semi-arboreal as juveniles, they use their three pairs of legs to help them climb, until they're heavy enough that it becomes ungainly. Unlike their more leathery counterparts, the common Snorse, these guys are much slower, softer and squishier, with frog-like skin. The Violet Dart flower is a major part of their early diet, giving them a toxic/foul tasting resistance against predators. A couple of other defenses include the ability to spray sticky slime from their lower antennae, And bright warning colors displayed on their shells!
A podlet snorse is a meandering little animal, focused almost entirely on getting to their next meal as they plod along. Quick movements may startle them into a defensive response, but any grems or humans that wish to feed one need only be still and patient!
While their diet is mostly herbivorous, preferring the petals and stalks of blue flowers, they’ll make an exception to slurp up insects or worms that cross their path! They’re especially fond of the violet dart flower, a plant which helps to boost their toxin producing capabilities in their early life.
Podlet snorses are mainly solitary once they reach maturity, but as juveniles they may be seen in larger groups, or ‘stocks’ as they travel through forests or fields for sustenance.
They will greet or identify other podlet snorses by pressing all four of their feelers together.
