Onteater

The Onteater is a large mammal from the high-gravity planet of Mantras. Its name is derived from its main food source: Onts.

Description
Onteaters are the largest form of mammalian life on Mantras, rising to 7 feet tall. Onteaters have a flat face with a wide mouth and a very long tongue, perfect for catching Onts. Onteaters are bipedal, and stomp through the Stormgrass fields on thick legs. Their forelimbs are much longer than thier legs, and end in thick claws. These claws are used to slash open Ont nests so the Onteater can easily get at the inhabitants.

Onteaters are covered in thick, shaggy fur, except for their backs, which have varying bald sections. As each bald spot is unique, this is the easiest way to identify individual Onteaters.
