Onahk

this reddish-gray-colored creature was native to the temperate marshes of Osirrag, where they live in nomadic herds. Onahk preyed upon the aquatic birds and reptiles of the planet, picking them from the surface of the water. Onahks measure a meter in length and over two meters in height, with much of their height attributed to their long necks. They move about on six thin legs, and have a group of sensory stalks on the front and rear of their bodies. The longer, front stalks were for taste while the rear stalks were for smell. They had two air sacs located inside their bodies to give them natural bouyancy. At the end of their necks was a sophisticated set of eyes, while their mouths were located under their bodies. They are equally at home in the water and on land, but must breathe air in order to survive. The neck of the onahk is unusual in that it can be extended or contracted by regulating the bloodflow in its flesh. More blood in the vessels of the neck extends the neck, while a reduction in blood caused it to contract.
