Tamaranian Hoppers are native to the planet of Tamaran, also native is the Willosaur, which is one of their two known predators (the other is the Splodey). Hoppers are social, and tend to live in small herds grazing, and then moving once they feel they have consumed enough from that area. Probably the most peculiar thing about Tamaranian Hoppers is their means of locomotion. Hoppers move salially (i.e. they hop to get around) upon a single double-jointed leg. They can be seen as a slight cameo in civilization stage when Black Cloud is used. They fall from the cloud making citizens unhappy.
