Anticipaste

The Anticipaste is a strange creature from the SPORE Universe that resembles the appearance of a plant.

Appearance
Anticipastes hold more resemblance to a plant than any animal: a green bulbous body supported on four thin legs, and even a set of leaves and a stalk growing from the top of its head. This serves as both an extra food source for the Anticipaste and camouflage against carnivores. Its whole body has only four total vertebrae.

The species is also a possible descendent to the primitive creature, the Payer.
