The Land-Prong

Jack detested land-prongs. There were horrible things, which of course wasn't their fault. They got into things of the camp and would try to eat anything. He'd seen crushed prong shells, some of them close to his camp. Even the old timers who'd been on Zara through straw since the first colonization said so. Maybe the abnormally dry weather had something to do with it,. or increase of something, the A, or decrease of natural enemies.
