About: Trunk-Sucker   Sponge Permalink

An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

These gliders soar from tree to tree, attaching themselves with a powerful suction organ and claws. Once attached to a trunk, the trunk-suckers are apparently impossible for the daggerwrists to remove. It is necessary for the hunters to hook them on the wing, using their honed wrists or lower jaws, a feat which challenges both species' aerobatic survival skills. Groups will rest at what are nicknamed roost-trees.

  • The Trunksucker is a small creature that glides through Darwin IV's forests and clings to Plaque-bark Trees, sucking their nutrient-rich sap. "Similar to Earth's woodpeckers they fly, they land on trunk of a tree, prop themselves up with their tails and take fluid from tree".
