Volkswagen Beetle

The Volkswagen Beetle is the tentative name of a creature native to the Hetwan homeworld.

Biology
Bright yellow beetles that are half-sized Volkswagens. They have prolusions where four wheels should be they have four limbs similar to brown tires. Unlike tires, these contain objects within like three bowling balls trapped inside that roll inside the membrane of the tire, moving the body forward by six or eight inches. Each ball would slide down to make contact with the road and sort of squeeze the bug forward another few inches. Volkswagen Beetle is used by the Hetwans to carry cargo through their lands. They seem to be able to hold onto objects with their bodies through suction.
