The terrifying Drashigs are thought to be the most dangerous predators in the universe.
Characteristics
Drashigs are massive snake-like cratures with six eyes on stalks, fanged mouths, segmented bodies with greenish brown strong enough to withstand machine gun fire. They also have a sparse covering of hair. Thhe drashigs are unintelligent creatures and can be killed by especially large amounts of damage. They generally hunt in packs of three and live in colonies of 20. They live in marshy areas.
Drashigs will eat anything from flesh to starships, though they prefer to hunt. They hunt by scent and they will never give up the hunt once they find a trail. The Drashigs are especially strong and can burst through metal structures. (DW: Carnival of Monsters)
