This is Day Six
This creature is a(n): Wumble
This is its story:



A domestic wool bearing form of pygmy hippopotamus found in the southern farmsteads of Menewsha. Their wild relatives were first discovered during a sea voyage on a previously unknown island. Over years of selective breeding, their wool has become dense and soft. They are believed by some to be fairly intelligent, but their waddling gate and odd mumbling vocalizations, from which their name is derived, would not suggest this.

Though they are very passive and tolerant of humans, they can become someone pushy or even aggressive during feeding time, and can sometimes fertilizer of abandoned, lost, or escaped.. They are mostly herbivorous, but will eat carrion or live prey opportunistically when feral. Their fur also becomes course and thick in this state, their muscles become lithe and strong, and they grow small tusks, resembling their wild relatives. In this state they can sometimes become extremely aggressive, however they are quite small and mostly non-threatening, and return to their docile state when well fed and cared for.

Wumble stock of the highest quality can be sheered for a considerable profit, and their wool is often made into fine clothing in the textile mills of Duval.

Cardinal Biggles: minor edit to put the creatures name in form.
