Physiology & Ecology

This animal is a warm-blooded analogue of the Terran Spider, complete with eight legs and a segmented body. It is, however, a vertebrate, and is very similar to most animals of similar size and weight.

It is a voracious attacker and will fight fiercely until killed, especially in defense of its young, known as kittens. The Terran Spider analogy also differs in that Fulacinian trappers do not use any toxin or poison to kill their prey.

Life Cycle & Reproduction

Trappers have two genders and reproduce sexually. Fulacinian Trapper kittens are very cute and cuddly.

Diet & Trophics

This animal is adept at hiding, ambushing, and trapping prey, which mostly consist of larger insects, birds and mammalian land animals.
