Copipou

(singular Copipou, plural Copipou) is a shelled Complien that roams the boreal forests of southern Colloidus. It does not grow, and has the Earth and Esper Elements.
==Appearance==
It looks like a sandy-colored arthropod with two front legs, five pairs of hind legs, a long tail, and a head with one large eye. It has two pairs of antlers, one large and one tiny. The average Copipou is 3.7 ft (1.1 m) tall, not including the antlers.
==Information==
===Habitat===
Copipou live in the taigas of Colloidus. They migrate north every autumn and south in the spring. They form packs of three to four, huddling together under trees at night and roaming the forest in the day.
===Biology===
Copipou are omnivores. They feed on roots, bulbs, berries, and the cores of pine cones. They hunt Phasinger, Comados, Comicorpe, and other medium-to-large Compliens as a pack, using chittering and screeches to communicate. They also eat smaller animals like Phylpo and Furrsack whenever they can find them. They avoid carrion.
Their hard shells are made from silica and chitin. Every few years, they molt out of their shells, leaving them vulnerable for a few days while their new shells harden. Just before molting, they wade into rivers and eat large amounts of river sand and Sidines in order to aid in shell growth.
They are diurnal and warm-blooded. Female Copipou squeeze out clusters of 20-30 brownish yellow eggs from the sides of their tail, then carry the egg sacs around until they hatch.
===Behavior===
They hunt by surrounding prey in a big circle, then charging in and beating the unfortunate animal with their antlers. Their antlers conduct psychic energy from their brain into their target, causing the target to become disabled from serugasium shock.
The Copipou's mating seasons are based on the phases of Cuatrosol, Complanet's fourth moon. Cuatrosol's full moon coincides with the peak of Telemetenae's esperomagetic emissions, which massively charges up all Copipou in southern Colloidus and allows them to most effectively protect their young.

Some insights on 's origins.
===Name===
Its name is derived from "copepod" and "caribou".
===Design===
It was based on a copepod and a caribou.
==Trivia==
*They have a long, prehensile tongue with a firm, sharp point. This allows them to peel the scales off pine cones and dig out edible roots.
