Description:

A subspecies to the Ferret lizard, these creatures are well adapted to frigid temperatures, and are commonly found in frozen tundra or taiga environments. Their thick fur helps them stay insulated, with fluffy feet to aid them in maintaining their mobility up as they glide across the snow. These agile predators have a high metabolism and are akin to stoats in their agility and high stamina, sporting a gnarly set of clear teeth to bite with ferociously quick snaps in order to bleed their prey and track it down. 

When in a defensive stance, the spines on their tail can be used similarly to a porcupine, giving them the ability to embed their spines into an assailant with one quick tail smack. Snapper lizards tend to rattle these spines on the ends of their tails to ward off competition or big predators looking for a quick meal. 

Misc Facts:

• These omnivorous creatures will consume anything they can find in their unforgiven environment. 
• Buffshrooms are a staple part of their diet. When the season for these mushrooms come around, these lizards will work hard to collect and cache as many as possible in order to hold them over through the harsh winter seasons. 
• Ruffled Snappers are very sensitive to temperatures, living anything hot can cause them to overheat.
