Bandersnatch

== Biology ==
The Bandersnatch (Bandersnatches as Plural) is a small animal which appears to be a cross between a Ferret and a Lizard. It can grow up to 50cm in length and weigh up to 3kg (Excluding fur). Typically males are slightly shorter than females, but their claws are larger. Fur colors and thickness can vary depending on their environment. Their claws are quite sharp and they're mostly used for gripping, climbing and digging. Despite having sharp fangs, Bandersnatch are actually omnivorous, consuming meats, berries, insects and just about anything that's edible.
A Bandersnatch can live up to 10 years and maturation takes around 10 weeks. Offspring is born blind and will stay that way for about 1 to 2 days. By around 7 weeks old, they join a pack.
== Mannerisms ==
Although Bandersnatches aren't classified as 'sentient' creatures, they are still quite intelligent and social. Despite their intelligence, their decisions are ruled entirely by the scent of food. If a person has food, it is very easy to lure a bandersnatch into just about anything. Their intelligence comes from the way they communicate with each other, often having many different calls that signify different things (Mostly alarm calls). Like dogs they tend to travel in packs of about 5, mainly scavenging for food. Bandersnatch are very territorial toward other Bandersnatch, but not toward anyone else; they are able to co-exist with anyone that isn't a rival Bandersnatch pack. How they mark their territory is unknown, but many suggest that it's similar to dogs and cats.
The Bandersnatch is rarely violent, but it will lash out with it's sharp claws if it's cornered or if someone with food actively refuses to give it to the Bandersnatch.
== Environment ==
Their ability to adapt to their environment is extremely good, allowing them to live nearly anywhere. 
In colder environments, their fur is gray and white, and it's rather thick in order to regulate it's body temperature.
In hotter environments, their fur is often brown and rather thin.
In forests, their fur is sometimes a mixture of black and a different colour. What determines this colour is unknown, but it has been theorized that it's due to the berries that they eat
