The Forty-sixth Beast.

The beast’s tusks have grown, as have its sensory organs, which have grown more pliable.  It now walks on its hands and knees as well as its feet.  I imagine it is quite small.

Sometimes when I don’t have a biological niche to push the beast towards, I think of ways to make it as weird and improbable as possible.  I imagine that’s how nature works half the time anyway.
