Decorated Cannon Beetle Larva

Olimar's Notes
This creature is the larval form of a cannon beetle variant known for a diet consisting entirely of entirely of eating stones. The decorated cannon beetle favors stones with a high iron content, which contributes to its brilliant red torso. The stones these creatures launch are wrapped in a powerful magnetic field which causes the stones to stray from their launch trajectory when other objects with high metal content, such as space suits, are nearby. Extreme caution is recommended for explorers wearing steel-plated armor in close proximity to this fearsome creature.

Louie's Notes
Slice the meat into tender cutlets and vigorously apply a lime and pepper rub. Panfry until lightly crusted. Accompany with watercress and drizzle with freshly prepared tamarind sauce.

PS undefined Not only is the larval form encountered, but also the adult form, which is shiny gold in color. The boulders the adult form shoots are faster and turn around better.
