When did we ever hear that they go to Ma'Spa to develop lungs?
Gabbiwogs develop lungs after a dip in the spawnin springs.

That might refer that Ma'Spa is an ancient city. And Munch's biography said that he just came from a spawning pool high up in the mountains, so it's very well possible that it isn't Ma'Spa.
It’s very possible that Gabbits come from other rivers as well as the Mongo, but no reason to believe they do. Ma’Spa is a breeding ground, and has been sculpted into a shrine, but what makes you think there’d be a city there?

:
Why does he live now in a cavern? And how did Abe meet him? And what are those mountains mentioned in the biography?
He has been driven underground to hide from the industrialists. As a figurehead for native and environmental rights, they would love to have him out of the picture. As a tree that’s developed into a thinking, talking creature, the Vykkers would love to tear him to pieces. Munch’s Oddysee is meant to take place in a mountainous area. It doesn’t really show.
