Female Sheargrub

Female Sheargrubs are mandiblards that, unlike the members of the opposing gender, are scavengers. They do not attack leaders or Pikmin, although they still chase them. As with Male Sheargrubs, however, they chew apart stick bridges, stopping only if they are confronted or reduce the bridge to the bundle it was initially found as.
