Bestiarium - Kuchurik


 Kuchurik is a seven-fold creature with emerald-green vermiform parts growing out of a single body. Their seven chicken-like legs are not well-suited for walking, and they can move only by jumping awkwardly back and forth. They feed on soil, and as they do not have any mouthparts, they tumble down on the ground and absorb nutrients from soil through the large pores, covering their bodies. Each head is crowned by a pink comb, which turns bright red during the mating season. The pairing is really hard for these poor creatures, causing lot of confusion, crawling and bumping, until they can finally collapse on each other in such a way that will allow them to exchange certain fluids through their pores.
