These large slugs seek out sheltered places in the winter and reappear during the spring to feed on newly released spores. As they feed, they pick up the spores of moss which forms into a thick growth on their back, and eventually, seeds get caught in this growth which allows a variety of plants to grow on the backs of these slow-moving slugs. Large plants will dig into the soft fat stores on their backs and draw nutrients from the stores there with little detriment to the eensie themselves. Much of their diet comes through filter feeding from the air; consuming spores, small organisms, and other materials that get kicked up into the air whenever the ground is disturbed by passing creatures. Mynrosians like to keep these small creatures as miniature garden spaces when they lack space for a proper garden since they can grow larger plants and a wider variety than plant pots of the same size would allow.
