They have thick and powerful forelegs similar to those of a badger, with large claws designed for digging and burrowing.

Behavior: They have a pack social group similar to that of wolves, with the average pack size being 6 to 12. While carnivorous, they tend to avoid direct confrontation, preferring to take enemies and prey by surprise. They are "ambush hunters". They use their forelegs to dig shallow holes in the ground, and then lie in wait, hidden by loose earth. Once the trap is set, two to three pack members venture forth to chase prey towards the ambush site. When the hidden members of the pack feel the vibrations of their prey moving above, they swiftly emerge and kill the surprised and unlucky creature. They are nocturnal creatures and sleep in their dens by day, often sleeping beneath a mound of upturned earth.
Origins: Evolved unique "ambush hunting" technique to counter fast-moving prey.
Habitat: Primarily forests. They typically make their dens in large caves or other underground formations.
