more species info:
--- bumbleberries are about the size of a squirrel, but may be a bit larger or smaller. they have a small pouch on their belly, but it's usually hidden by fur, and their antennae are like pom-poms on wires. their wings are quite strong, and are able to carry the bumbleberry through the air. bumbleberries will travel from plant to plant, sticking their noses in the flowers and scattering pollen all over their noses. this is how they pollinate plants. unlike bees, bumbleberries do not pollinate plants while collecting food - they pollinate plants as their job, and actually primarily eat berries instead of nectar and pollen. bumbleberries do not have a defense system against predators, as their teeth are used for eating and they do not have claws. instead, they use their antennae to sense vibrations, which can give them a head start before the predator arrives. these creatures are warm-blooded, but they do enjoy warmth. bumbleberries reproduce when they find their life partner. the two bumbleberries will touch their antennae together, and shortly after, the parents will both drop one antenna pom-pom each [they will grow back later on]. these will be protected by the parents until the babies emerge from the center of the pom-pom. from then, the young bumbleberries - often referred to as bumblings - will crawl into their parents' pouches until they are mature enough to survive on their own. due to their unique reproductive system, any two bumbleberries can create offspring together.
