Description
Common Name: Behemoth
Scientific Name: Terragerulus titanus (Titan earth bearer)
Length: 540 feet
Height: 400 feet
Diet: Filter feeder, Lithovore

Biology
Behemoths are the largest land animal on Freyja. Fully grown Behemoths dwarf many creatures on Freyja and, at 540 feet long, are larger than any known creature to ever exist on earth. They have a hexapodal turtle-like appearance, giving the family, in which Behemoths belong, the name World Turtles. Like many other creatures on Freyja, Behemoths are animals with plant-like characteristics. They spend the majority of their lives dormant and buried with only their backs and nostrils exposed. While buried they absorb nutrients from the ground and feed plants that have taken root on their mountain-like backs. The mountain-like back is full of tiny holes that absorb water allowing the Behemoth and plants to stay hydrated. In exchange for the constant water supply, the plants inject sugars into the behemoth. The Behemoth’s tongue is extremely sensitive. They use their tongues to detect their other food supply, swarms of air-plankton. Behemoths need the protein boost to kick start their massive bodies. They can take in up to 90 times as much energy as they expend. Their tongues are camouflaged as feather trees (a type of tree on Freyja). Behemoths use their mace-like tails to protect themselves from predators.

Predators
Full grown behemoths have no predators; however young behemoths are vulnerable to predators, particularly wyverns.

Habitat
Behemoths inhabit the fertile valleys of the northern hemisphere of the western continent.

Mating
Behemoths only mate once every 12 years. They mate facing away from each other, mounting is impossible do to their size. They give birth to live young. The litter size can consist of up to 10, 10 feet long, babies. The babies are buried and spend the first few years of their lives living like plants, absorbing nutrients from the soil around them.
