Gulphogs possess a sophisticated social and hierarchical structure with a dominant male surrounded by multiple females and their young with maybe a few younger males allowed to stay with the pack. They have a early warning system for the solar flares that erupt from Aurelia's sun in the form of a third eye on top of the head, giving the Gulphog's enough time to take cover behind the Stingerfans. The parent Gulphogs educate their young and protect them with great care. They use their long teeth to pick up vibrations made by the Mudpod's felling the Stingerfans to make dams.
