Mole rats have sharp claws and even sharper tusks that they use to tear great chunks of flesh from their prey. Mole rats are either huge rats or the result of gene-splicing Kodiak bears with maladjusted lab rats. They seldom run in packs larger than a half dozen or so.[Non-game 1][Non-game 2]
Characteristics
