Greater Skuggernaut (juvenile) (WIP)
🕑 Added 2023-09-27 08:32:20 +0000 UTCJuveniles of skuggernauts exhibit the exact opposite growth pattern of the true skulossi, beginning as long-legged animals that become more squat and heavy as they mature (which is closer to the ancestral condition of the groups' common ancestor, the skogre).
It does not have a slit eye, it has a horizontal pupil which is able to rotate inside its socket to always remain level with the horizon, similar to many herbivorous mammals on Earth. It changes to a round pupil as an adult, since it does really need to scan the horizon for predators at that point.

I'm not sure, but eyes do physically change with age in other ways, so I consider it plausible.
Do any earth animals change their pupils shape through age?
