"Gutslurper"

CLASS: Zombie Spawn


The rare result of a zombie mating ritual, the Foetusaur is physically frailer than the closely related Zyghast and Progenoid, but slightly more intelligent and significantly more agile. It pants loudly through its writhing trunk, tasting the air for potential prey. It favors the intestines and their contents above any other meal, often leaving satiated after sucking them from a still-living victim. Its own corrosive digestive contents can be expelled with impressive force from the trunk as a defense mechanism, and have an especially detrimental effect on the flesh of zombies, halting their ability to regenerate.

Foetusaur are able to move only by hopping, but can leap several yards in pursuit of prey.

ART STUFF:

This will be the last of the evolved zombie spawn, which makes six in total - Foetusaur, Zyghast, Progenoid, Ectozyme, Grimgug, and Psychophagus (described in the zombryoids upload)

I originally wasn't even going to do this one because it felt too close to Zyghast, but it was a design I just had to use. Though early sketches have already been compared to the awesome extinct animal, Opabinia, it's actually inspired by an unnamed background monster from an episode of "The Real Ghostbusters", which had a similar mouth and back spines
