Raxacoricofallapatorians hatched from large, green [[egg]]s with several tendrils. ([[TV]]: ''[[Boom Town]]'') By the age of twelve, Raxacoricofallapatorians were still considered children and were shorter than a [[human]] of equivalent age.

Despite their large bulk, they were also capable of surprising speeds and could easily overpower a human. Raxacoricofallapatorians could hunt by scent and could identify an individual's species, age, sex, emotional state and location by it. This sense of smell was officially the best in the [[Mutter's Spiral|Galaxy]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Revenge of the Slitheen]]'') They could also sense the pain of closely related individuals from far away. ([[TV]]: ''[[Aliens of London]]''/''[[World War Three]]'')
