PDA entry

Databank
Shuttlebug
Shuttlebug

A common scavenger at the base of the food chain.

1 Mouth Parts

Small enough to be of little threat to most organisms, this creature is clearly adapted to feed on the waste products of the ecosystem around it.

2 Three Mandibles

Used to orient themselves when drifting, and to filter through detritus on cave floors.

3 Three Legs

High strength muscles can propel the lifeform great distances through the water, as well as ambulating them across the sea floor.

Assessment Necessary waste recycler - Presence may indicate nearby cave systems
