| - The ferocious flesh-eating foot most closely resembles, quite ironically, a foot. Usually between size 10 and size 13 in size, some exceptional individuals have been known to attain a size 15 and a toe spread of over six inches. Approximately half of all ferocious flesh eating feet carry the dominant gene for hairiness and thus are hairy. The other half, with the recessive gene, is naturally clean-shaven. However, all flesh-eating feet have long, sticky toes used to snatch prey and transfer it to the large mouth which may contain up to 66 needle-like teeth. Very little is still known about the internal anatomy of the ferocious flesh-eating foot, and it is unknown just where the foot's food goes when swallowed.

| - The ferocious flesh-eating foot most closely resembles, quite ironically, a foot. Usually between size 10 and size 13 in size, some exceptional individuals have been known to attain a size 15 and a toe spread of over six inches. Approximately half of all ferocious flesh eating feet carry the dominant gene for hairiness and thus are hairy. The other half, with the recessive gene, is naturally clean-shaven. However, all flesh-eating feet have long, sticky toes used to snatch prey and transfer it to the large mouth which may contain up to 66 needle-like teeth. Very little is still known about the internal anatomy of the ferocious flesh-eating foot, and it is unknown just where the foot's food goes when swallowed. The eggs of the ferocious flesh-eating food are layed in the sea, where they will drift in the pelagic currents for up to a year before making landfall on a beach somewhere, at which time the young hatch. A larval flesh-eating foot most closely resembles a grain of salt or a newborn rat. The larvae is a master of stealth. It can sneak up on a zebra and kill it with a swift bite to the groin before the zebra wakes up. It doesn't eat zebras, however, so it has to move fast. If it does not find a meal within ten minutes of it's hatching, it will begin to die. Thus, the little, squeaky creature unfurls it's majestic violet tongue into a parachute and drifts placidly to the nearest cherry or plum tree. The foot then eats a single fruit or sometimes more than twelve. After feeding, the larva finds a suitable body of warm, fresh water to metamorphosize, usually a puddle but often a river, pond, bathtub, or drainage saucer under a potted indoor ficus, and there it will spin itself a cocoon, in which it will lie dormant for just over a week. On the eighth day, the foot will emerge and climb up onto a low lying bough to dry. Over the next three hours, the foot sits motionless as its toes unfurl and spread out to dry in the sunshine. The foot is extremely vulnerable right now, and if it were to fall to the ground would be permanently crippled. Just as the sun begins to set, the foot, now fully grown, drops from the bough and hops along, quite blindly, until it finds an unoccupied patch of woodland to make it's territory. Then, as if suddenly overcome by an irresistible compulsion, it will climb as high as it can manage into the canopy and burst into a beautiful, beautiful song. It is unsure what reason the foot has to be singing. It certainly cannot be to attract mates, because even disregarding the fact that the feet have no sexual organs, they also have no ears, and for likewise reasons it cannot be to defend its territory. Nevertheless, the foot will sing for most of it's adult life. This is the last, and the longest, stage in the animal's life, which may extend thirty-four years or more. The ferocious flesh-eating foot is unique among feet in that, quite unlike regular feet (shown at left), they are not very social and never live in pairs. This results in the flesh-eating foot, overall, being a much more independent and free-thinking organism, and in turn a far more cunning and crafty predator than any regular foot, and it is this intelligence that has made the flesh-eating foot the most abundant of all flesh-eating body parts. However, the flesh-eating foot is just as sweetly-scented as it's non-ferocious counterparts, perhaps even more so.
