Edenic Predator

Edenic Predators are an unnamed species of arboreal creatures which inhabit the forests of Eden, a world in orbit of a binary star system.

Biology
These Predators are simian creatures with six tridactyl limbs and no tail. They're arboreal and apparently live in groups, but hunt prey alone. Their diet consists of the native Grazers.

Despite having six limbs, Edenic Predators only use four for locomotion. The extra pair of limbs is usually kept hidden and unleashed suddenly when in pursuit of prey to act as long grasping appendages and capture the fleeing Grazers. In winter, the Predators migrate to other locations as the Grazers die out.

When Predators eat Grazers that have been infected by a parasitic fungal spore, the infection is transferred to them. Unlike the Grazers, the Predators are killed by the fungus, which uses their bodies as a food source.
