they said “mammal”.
The creature has been nick named the “One Stepper”. As you are walking in the woods and come up upon one of them they freeze in their tracks, and as an autonomic response so do you. The creature stares at you, without moving, so much so you wonder if it’s alive. Then upon your next step it leaps onto your face and gouges out your eyes before your carcass hits the ground. Truly a horrifying creature. So, if you come up on one of them, remain frozen, for the next step is your last.
