Amphibians that strike from frozen waters, using the cold to stun their prey. They secrete a special liquid that both coats their own body with icy armor and freezes any nearby foes. Frogs are their favorite food.
Zamites hatch out of eggs embedded in the ice by their parents. Once they hatch, they are already ravenous predators.
To inflate itself, Zamtrios will rapidly produce a gas inside its body that increases to Zamtrios several times its original mass. This is used as another defense. When in this form for a long time or when enough damage is dealt, it will deflate from pores under it.
Its believed that if they stay inflated for to long, they could end up killing themselves.
Zamtrios have been found to have a taste for Plesioth.
Zamtrios have another layer of skin under their skin once torn off.
