The Proto-Tejdaw split from its ancestor the Squat Limbless. It moved from the polar beach to Vivus Tundra. There it got larger and feeds on small fauna. Its organs are more streamlined to help it detect prey better. In the frozen soil it doesn't do much digging anymore so its front teeth are used more for catching prey than digging. Its 4 nostrils no longer have tube-like stalks but are open wide to pick up the scent of prey. And its chin-spikes have grow into longer to help it feel where it is going even in the dark.
Like their ancestors their skin is like chainmail and helps protect it from larger predators. They are also semi-warm blooded and can better regulate their temperature. Their darker coloration helps them stay camouflaged in the dark Vivus soil.
After mating it take only about 3 months for gestation. They have live birth to around 5 to 8 offspring. The offspring are not cared for and must fend for themselves scavenging on carrion until they are large enough to hunt. Most do not make it to adulthood.
