[Personal] Swamp Lion Update by CrossroadsKing

[Personal] Swamp Lion Update

CrossroadsKing

Swamp Lions are a social, carnivorous species developed by xristieno @ dA, Kris Kuta, and myself back in art school. They live in any area with enough moisture to keep their skin from drying out. Their skin is much like a frog's in texture, but contains chromatophores like a squid or octopus that allows them to change color or flash their markings. Each Swamp Lion has a unique set of markings which the color may change within. These markings do not change with the chromatophores. They live in social groups called prides that range from pairs to large groups of seven or more.

Males typically sport large showy antlers and long fangs they use to fight with other males for females. These fights typically consist of intimidation tactics but may escalate to bloody and fatal battles Females are usually more stocky since, much like earth lions, the females are typically the hunters. They hunt by ramming themselves into prey and eviscerating it before it can regain its footing. Much like lions, they are ambush predators, using the chromatophores in their bodies to camouflage themselves against their background.

This species is not open to make until XristiEno and I decide what we are going to do with them.
