Translations:Cockvine Seedling/6/en

Aside from the rings of flexible, fibrous muscle that they retain throughout their lives, cockvines are seeded with a huge reserve of fructose-based energy which allows them to move swiftly away from their place of origin. During this stage of their life cockvines show a snake-like aversion to large sapient creatures, actively avoiding them except in certain circumstances (see parasitism below). They do however have a ravenous attitude towards life of a similar size to it and during this, their most mobile period of existence, hunt and eat as much food as they can in preparation for the dramatic growth stages ahead. Cockvine seedlings are omnivorous and will consume almost anything, cited as a key reason for its over-reaching success on Myrellion.
