Their deftness in speed is what makes them so deadly long with their small teeth used to tear flesh and bone.

Habitat/Society:
Cave Jumpers, given the name by explorers, although their real scientific names are unknown, lost in a fire as the notes were burned in the canyon. Not much is known about the creatures, and it is unknown how to tell males and females apart. It is not even known how the creatures mate, but they can be found in the caves and ravines around Wailing waters. They are fast as lightning in their attacks and ferocious when devouring food. There are rare times when two can be seen fishing together in the river, but not many encounters like that have been actually witnessed.
