I don't have a name for this thing. xd It's about the size of, I don't know, an oversized hedgehog? Something like that.

The tendrils on its head grow continuously, like hair. It secretes a sweet-smelling and sticky liquid at the base, and coats the tendrils with it by preening with its mouthparts. It uses them to attract insects, which either stick fast or become entangled and easier to catch.

It moves fairly slowly and relies mostly on camouflage to avoid predators; if it curls up into a ball it does a fair impression of a lump of wood with something growing on it.

It can be kept quite easily in captivity, although it tends to put on a bit of weight and care needs to be taken with its feeding.
It's adorable. xD.

Everyone's entries are so creative!

KIRIchan loves it! It's round and cute and eats a lot like me! whee Can we roll down the hill together, breathing in the grassy air? whee

I sometimes look like a piece of wood too, when threatened. ninja

KIRIchan officially calls it Heeboompetpetroll. 3nodding whee
Great idea for catching food! And I like that you put how it would be in captivity, I'm not sure what I'd do if I had a neighbor with that for a pet! Although there is something really cute about it, it has that puppy dog look in its eye.
whoa eek

I tried to get a balance between cute and grotesque; most of my sketches were too far in one or the other direction. @_@; I put in the captivity note because I noticed I'd drawn it with a bit of a tummy on it xd .
It looks ugly at first sight, but when you looked at it more closely, it's kind of cute. I like the idea of the tendrils, a very lazy, but effective, way for catching food XD something like the venus fly trap....no, not the venus fly trap, ack, I don't know what that plant was called, but it feeds on insects
It reminds me a lot of a mixture between a naked mole rat and a beatle or something to that nature. It's a pretty well thought out creature design. I love the ideas of tendrils. Kinda makes me want 'em. Except for the whole... bugs getting caught in it thing. *shudder*
