Ancestor:Descendants:

The rainforest buttpiper split from its ancestor, the buttpiper. They spread across the forests and jungles of Dixon. The have grown twice as large and have expanded their diet to just about any purple or black flora in their habitat. They have a longer neck and legs to help reach higher branches. On their feet they have developed a primitive wooden hoof to help run from predators.

Like their ancestor they use their "butt-sacs" to attract mates. These calls are very complex ranging from warning signals to mating rituals. They still live in social groups and migrate around grazing. Their butt-nostrils have grown larger and wider to give them their own unique call.
