These creatures are generally inoffensive and spend much of their days eating leaves, sleeping, etc. If they gain surprise over an opponent (having rolled a 1-4 due to their silence and coloration), they will flee 50% of the time, and sit silently otherwise, waiting for the intruder(s) to leave. They will fight if cornered or wounded, using their claws.
