Physical Description

A general weight and length can be determined by a simple calculation. This calculation took several years to formulate, but has been know to be accurate within 13% height and/or weight.

Local average high tempture = T USDA Plant Hardiness Zone = Z Longitute = L Spring or Summer S = S(13.7) Fall S = F (9.3) Winter S = (8.1)

A well known cousin and thought to be a sevier mutation of the Devil Horned Caterpillar, the Borrego Beast has several similarities. Its protective scaled arrmor make it easy to glide thru the sand. Nautural eyesight make the beast vurtualy blind in the daytime and somewhat scarce during full moons.

The Borrego Beast is a stethly and fast burrowing creature. The first know birth place of the Borgeast was in the Arroyo Tapiado/Borrego Desert Mud Caves located less than two hours east of San Diego, California.

Now famous cryptozoologists; Jason Hofer first discovered the creature as a Boy Scout in the spring of 1986. Since that time several sitings have been reported. Although the number of Borrego Beasts can not be determined, it has been reported that the beasts have migrated from the southwestern region of California to parts of Canada and as far south as El Salvador.

Habits

The Borrego Beast

Diet

Their eating habits create an extreamly hazordus danger to campers and night hikers! The Borrego Beast survive on food and trash left outside by campers in the spring and summer time. Although this is the common diet of the Borrego Beast, it is not permited to feed the creatures (trash or food). Non-Biodegradable plastics or foil commonly used in food packaging such sullafane and mylar are not a friend to the beast. These man-made products have an extreamly adverse reaction to the mental stability to the beast. They become increasingly agitated and violent when these man-made products are introduced into their eco-systems.

During the winter months, due to a lack of outside food sources the beasts turn to Cannibalism. Unfortunatly when eating ones offspring, many boilogical anomolys occur. An increased diet of their own young slow down the matabalisim creating a more robust and even more elongated body which has know to strech for nearly the same lenght of a school buss.
