It was a tropical beach area, actually. It's where the Meeches would have been.
|
Going off topic here: I thought Meeches lived on the open plains around Rupture Farms (hence them resembling raptors)?
According to the Oddworld Encyclopedia:
:
|
The environmental conditions required by Meeches were much more fragile than those of most creatures; subsequently, Meeches were endemic to the immediate area around where RuptureFarms 1029 was built—thought to be open fields and plains, possibly savannah, —where they hunted Elums in huge packs. Their confined distribution ensured that the habitat loss and hunting of Meeches lead to such a rapid decline in their population and inevitable extinction. This extinction has not been officially admitted by RuptureFarms.

Some things said by Alf in dear alf about meeps-
(Oddworld.com)
"Some tribal crafts that the natives are known for are Meep crochet and Meep leather goods..."
"Meeps are silly little livestock that we use for food and goods."
(Oddworld library.net)
Q: I 'd like to know what Mudokon clothes are made of. I 've seen meeps so you obviously have wool. But you don't seem to be wearing any wool clothing so what other fabrics are your clothes made of? Kleeng
Alf: I don't know if meeps give "wool", though they may contribute to the textile production process ... at the fertilizer level. Various plants are used to create our light, comfortable and stylish loincloths. They are handcrafted by Mudokons who don't have to spend all of their time answering questions about interplanetary fashion!

Here's another Meep-related quote from Alf:
:
|
It’s nice to look at one way or another, so pop another sustainably-harvested log on the fire and snuggle up in your brand new Meep sweater: I’m going to celebrate the Holiday season with a traditional Alf-style question-answering.

Anyway, since Slogs seem to be a domesticated form of Slegs, maybe there's a Meep-like creature out there that looks like a mouflon? "Shouflon?"
