Out of this bloodsucking menagerie, however, few are quite as disturbing as the queen skeeter of the flooded forest. Despite their name, these vicious arthropods are not closely related t

Zuruchi: Among the larger of the predators to haunt the coral isles, the exact taxonomic placement of the zuruchi is unclear; its general shape is roughly similar to a seahorse and it indeed has several anatomical traits corresponding to those small fish, but molecular studies of its genome has revealed striking similarities to samples taken from the late Titanosaurus, who was himself quite a headache to classify. Regardless of where it fits into the tree of life, however, zuruchi are greatly feared hunters, able to tackle a wide range of prey thanks to their impressive arsenal of natural weapons. The overall shape of a zuruchi is very much l
