Please welcome Kelvin – a Charcoal Leviathan, and his evil twin Kevin – a Meadow Leviathan!
.
Out of 2 species of Leviathans currently known to science, Charcoal are usually spotted at night while Meadow ones seem to prefer daylight. Both feed on small flying insects and prefer moist climate.
.
One theory suggests that the coloration difference is caused by the symbiotic algae covering the bodies of Meadow Leviathans, another just states it’s only a pigmentation difference and the two are in fact the same species.
.
Fun fact: Leviathans spin to facilitate digestion, which involves tiny pebbles grinding the food inside and produces the levitation gas as a by-product. An extremely satisfying process not unlike massage for Leviathans, both Charcoal and Meadow ones.
