As a result of parasitisation, the teeth have grown or have been replaced with larger teeth, either of which being unusual for a canine.[1][excerpt 1] The level of development is enough that they cannot properly close their jaws.[1] Colmillos can be identified in the night by their highly-reflective tapetum lucidum, a tissue which covers the eye, which glows green in low-light conditions. The spine of Colmillos suffer from deformities as a result of the parasite's growth in the abdomen, and in a situation where a Colmillos is threatened the Plaga is liable to inflict serious injury by tearing open the skin so its bladed tentacles can be used as a weapon.[1]
Behaviour[]
As dogs are natural pack animals, they are known to adapt to parasitism much easier than humans.[1] When attacking prey, Colmillos tend to attack in groups, with one going for the throat while another flanks them.
