Alf says Fleeches are wild animals. When the Vykkers are described as creating Fleeches, it must mean they adapted existing Fleeches to create the Fleeches we see today.
Fleeches aren't worshipping by the Mudokons as sacred creatures in the same way Scrabs and Paramites are, but being wild animals, Mudokons hold them in high regard for fulfilling their niche in the ecosystem.
It is thought that Meeches were once worshipped by the Mudokons. The strongest evidence of this is Alf's claim that, had Meeches not been extinct, Abe would have had to be initiated into the corresponding temple before being granted the power of Shrykull.
