Crashfish

This unusual species has developed an emergency defense mechanism based on mutually assured destruction. 1. Forward-mounted Eye: Enables the creature to identify and track potential predators. 2. Sulfur Plant: The sulfur plant has evolved to feed on sulfuric compounds secreted by the crashfish, which makes its nest within its leaves. Stronger, more protective plants provide superior nesting grounds, which in turn provide the plant with more nutrients from larger crashfish. 3. Defense Mechanism: Concentrations of sulfur build up in the organism over time. If the crashfish collides with something at sufficient speed the spikes on its torso are impacted, triggering an explosive chemical reaction. Assessment: Equip stasis rifle, repulsion cannon or similar before approaching shallow caves
