Lifespan and Development:

The Mäsällã'kọ'pọnọ is a small (.35 ounces) tree dwelling rodent native to Desnind. From head to where their tails start, the Mäsällã'kọ'pọnọ grow to 4-5 inches.

The gestation period of the Mäsällã'kọ'pọnọ is 29-40 trials, with a normal litter of 2-4 pups. The pups are born blind, and only green and white. The babies will stay with their mother for 2-2.5 months. Once they reach adolescent, their trademark red throat patches start to grow.
