Hey, Jordan_boi, what makes you think Muds are related to dinosaurs.
Is it because of the slanted legs? The don't even have teeth that are visible to see(or beaks). I believe the only reason people believe muds look like turtles is because the greenish-blue skin. I have not played MO so I don't know if they can swim. But I'm guessing they can.
Elum is the word "mule" spelled backward. After all they carry the
mudokons supplies the way meetles can. I think the horns on their
heads could be for battling off enemies and other Elum males
possibly. Or it could just be the same way giraffes have the stubs
and their heads. (Practically for the same uses.)
Xav, how many times do you have to to say
to a member of the forums to not double post before
you issue those warning. Just a question.
No offense to anyone.

Actually, quite a lot of species do physically change sex. Many fish can do it, amphibians, some reptiles, insects, many molluscs are actually both male and female at once. I'm not suggesting that this is the case with scrabs, just that it is possible.
By subversive I mean smaller males that do not fight the dominant scrab. At least until the time is right...
Some animals, specifically a type of batfish, have three male castes in the shoal. A dominant one who is the largest and most obvious, who mates with all the females and doesn't allow the males to do so. There are males who look like females, so the dominant male does not notice them, who secretly mate with the true females, but run the risk of the alpha male trying it on with them. And there is the theif, a small, quick male who darts in, spawns, then retreats before the alpha male can stop them.  |
And then there is self-impregnating animals just the same as
many oddworld's creatures do. Hmm, I wonder how many animals
in oddworld can actually mate together?
I double-posted for a reason.
