Liffle

Liffles are creatures native to the planet Marronia.

Appearance
Liffles grow to around 20 cm in length. They have four legs and a thin tail, usually two-thirds of their body in length. Their body is relatively flat and wide, with a head at the front. The head is shaped like the point of an arrow, with two eyes on top. Their mouth has four sharp teeth, two on top and two on the bottom, for ripping roots out of the ground.

Behaviour
Liffles scurry around the forest floor, digging up roots of Klopoes and Moshi, then ripping them out with their sharp teeth. When they feel threatened, Liffles will scurry away, trying to find a place to hide. They live undeground in self-dug burrows. Liffles are a common source of food for creatures such as Sinballins.

Habitat
Liffles live in burrows underground, but do most of their hunting on the jungle's floor above. They have been sighted in the jungle plains of Marronia, but they are more common in the jungles themselves.
