Spihons are simple, reptile-like species that survive exclusively off dandelions. While dandelions themselves are not poisonous, their unique stomach acid changes the chemical composition of their diet and turns it into a deadly neurotoxin capable of shutting down brain functions. The males have distinctively wider bodies than their female counterparts, and while they are more scared of other beings than they are of it, it is known to use its toxin barbs to defend itself.
