WOO I MADE ANOTHA HYBRID!! (takin suggestions for more!) >:D Axorg (axe-org) (axolotl + multiple frog species lolol)

The axorg is a very talented species, equipped with both lungs and gills. their eyelids have see-through-like abilities and whiskers to navigate the muddy waters that they thrive in. most species of the axorg come with a strange fin that they can lift up. researchers think that this may be either a way to impress others, for speed, or to communicate. there have been only 2 species recorded at this time that do not have said fin. a rare mutation can occur at times where the axorg is seen with more than one fin, but this doesn't seem to affect the creature in any way though.

they are most commonly found in swamps and marshes where they eat small fish and bugs as they can leap out of the water by using their tail to carry them into the air. most tend to dwell in the water for their lives, but those who also wander on land seem to develop protective-like lizard scales. we are still unsure of how they do this as sometimes the same species will have skin that is practically entirely different.

the axorg tend to hang out in groups of the same sex and have a tendency to wander and vary from each group. it is seen that if theres not enough members of the opposite sex, they will turn hostile and fight.
