Creature:Mail-Leech

Evolution
Mail-Leeches evolved on the planet Mailon and at first were required for Mailworms to live, as they contained a toxin that made up 80% of the Mailworm's vital organs. They were farmed and bred through the Mailworm tribal years and became household pets and farm animals in later years.

Species Information
Mail-Leech bodies are made from 60% plant matter and are more plant than animal. Though they are officially omnivorous, their main diet is plant cells absorbed from their own body. They are blind, but have heightened senses due to their large feet and the sensory grasses and feathers that grew along their bodies. They used to actually store Mailworms inside them with a second stomach system. Their hands were specially evolved to catch Mailworms on their way out.
