Description: Snitchlings are small flying creatures that often take down their targets by cooperating with local predators. When a Snitchling finds its prey, they'll emit a distinct sweet smell from the bony tips of their wings that'll stick to that prey. They'll then fly around the area while leaving a scent trail behind them until they find a nearby predatory animal. The Snitchling will then lead the predator to their new prey by following the scent trail back to the prey, wait for the predator to do the killing, and then share the meat with that predator. Through this exchange, the predator is led to an easy meal while the Snitchling is able to take down bigger prey it wouldn't be able to deal with on its own. Due to these mutual benefits, local predators have learnt to work with the Snitchling population while almost all Snitchlings have been observed seemingly having their own 'personal favorite' predator to work with. If a predator doesn't want to share or attacks the Snitchling that helped them, the Snitchling will simply use their special scent to draw in a different predator and feast on whoever gets killed. As such, attacking a Snitchling is usually risky as they might retaliate by revealing your location to every predator in the area.
