The chut snorkpiper replaced its ancestor, the snorkpiper. The have grown twice as large and live in and on the banks of the Pipcard waterways. They lazily spend their time eating and sleeping in the water. Their snorkel-like butt-nostrils allow them to breathe while submerged. If they go into deeper water their butt-sacs and lungs can store air for hours. The snorkels can fold down when walking on land and if up when submerged in the river.
They live in social groups of up to 10 individuals with unrelated females and two or three males, usually related. The groups have a home territory along the river and the resident males defend it viciously. They are known as "beach masters". Rivers can be packed with them and they are only limited by the amount of food available. Like their ancestor they use their "butt-sacs" to attract mates. These calls are very complex ranging from warning signals to mating rituals.
