The diet list says "Syrup Ferine berries", but just says "Sleeve Ferine". What tissues does it eat? Listing out a tree species without listing specific tissues implies most of its tissues are eaten, or it's eaten whole. While it does mention eating fruit in its description and diet, it also has such a broad diet it's not out of the question it could eat other tissues. Squirrels, for example, eat a lot of nuts and seeds, but also other kinds of plant tissue.

"Drakoniskian bjournaratta’s" That's a pluralization error.

Why is the name so lengthy and odd?

I'll go over the rest later.

Seriously, can we still please call SOME things by their type names (or whatever the word is?). Does everything have to be.... different like this from its ancestor in terms of name?

Fixed the two errors you pointed out.

Its name is a partial corruption of the Swedish translation for "Draconic Bear-rat". I felt like it was a pretty creative name, so I'm sticking with it.

I don't think I understand.

I think they're talking about how this isn't the [X] Grasper but instead has a totaly new name

Looking back on it now, I was really crass and rude, wasn't I?
