Zeeschrijder Leviathan

A vast bipedal leviathan which roams the reefs in herds, grazing the seafloor.

1Antennae

Antennae on the creature's head can detect a range of scents, helping the sea treaders to find fresh grazing pastures, avoid the path of large predators, and sense chemical signals from others of their kind.

2Carapace

Thick armour protects the creature from attack by all but the largest of carnivores. Two legs extend from the rear.

3Elongated Snout

Used to siphon up plant material from the sea floor, and maintain balance.

4Behavior

Large herds would decimate the flora of a single area, thus encouraging the sea treader's migratory behavior. Families keep their young towards the center of the herd, and parents will lash out at over curious interlopers in search of an easy meal.
