Skippers

Description

A hopping plant on Fentil.

Common enough to be seen as the 'rodents' of the plant kingdom, skippers are the basis for many food chains and their carrion-scavenging lifestyle ensures a complete cycling of nutrients.

The root has a tube running through it, the opening at the end sucks up water and the root cap acts like teeth to pick off flesh and dead plant.

As stated on the sheet, on Fentil, ';predators' are not exclusively carnivores, as some herbivores have evolved to catch mobile plant prey, which creates some interesting food webs.
