| Habitat
| - Jungle
- Forest
- Coast
- *Common in calm, healthy bodies of freshwater.
*Prefer ponds, bogs, wetlands, lakes, and lagoons, as the water is often very slow moving.
*May occasionally be sighted on streams, rivers, and bays where the water is flowing less quickly.
*An important indicator of water quality and ecosystem health.
*Does not tolerate polution, especially as to not damage the membranes.of its feet, eyes, and sails.
*Salt irritates their membranes as well, so rarely found in brackish or salt water.
|
| anatomy
| - *Capable of rapid bursts of speed using powerful legs and potentially magic.
*Body coloration provides quality camoflage from predatory dragons, crocodilians, and humans.
*Wings have evolved into small sails, allowing them to traverse the water effortlessly.
*Long, powerful tail may aid in steering.
*Very bouyant owing to various morphological adaptations, although they may take action to submerge if necessary.
*Strong, powerful swimmers underwater. May hold breath for up to an hour.
*Makes deep, low-frequency noises by forcing air through its crest.
*Blue eyes coated with same hydrophobic membrane on feet and sail, protecting it from irritation, infection, and allowing them to see underwater.
|
| hatchling
| - *Newborns require protection until capable of maneuvering on own.
*Fun loving and curious.
*Very active as hatchlings, zipping around everywhere with ease.
*Flock behind their mothers until they reach maturity.
*Must be careful not to make themselves a target for predators. Very young hatchlings are susceptible to raptors, canids, and large snakes in addition to regulator predators of adults.
*Will sleep together on water lillies or other floating objects like tree trunks or Shallow Water Dragons.

| Diet
| - *Omnivorous, but primarily eat plants.
*Will pick lillies, lotuses, water hyacinths, duckweed, algae, liverworts, and other aquatic plants off the surface of the water.
*Will dive under the surface for reeds and roots on the muddy floor.
*If hungry and given the opportunity, will take fish, crayfish, worms, snails, frogs, salamanders, and small snakes in the water.
*May eat fruit or nuts that fall or are washed into the water from treetops lining the shore.
*Have thick, grinding teeth that allows them to crush their food.
*Smelly gas produced from digesting fiber-rich foods contributes to bouyancy further.
*While submerging, will flatulate if possible.
