Notes
Olimar's Notes
Reaching Crawmad
Camabarus bignathom
Crawmad Family
This species of Crawmad has developed a second set of "jaws" that reach out as far as a Hermit Crawmad can reach in one burst. The "jaws" can't actually eat Pikmin, but instead it pulls the catch back in to eat. The Reaching Crawmad rarely leaves its hole, and it has a distinct red body coloring.
Trivia
The Reaching Crawmad is the second enemy that I (EmperorRagingLongLegs) came up with.
"Bignathom" is a very crude scientific name meaning "two mouths". I used a normal dictionary and put together roots to make a word that basically means "two mouths". I have a Latin-to-English Dictionary now, but I still keep the crummy name because it was my second enemy.
