Sand Snipe

The Sand Snipes are tiny insect-like Rahi.

History
The Sand Snipe species was created by the Makuta using Viruses and Liquid Protodermis to be one of the Rahi to inhabit the Matoran Universe.

These Rahi make their home in the desertic district of Po-Metru on Metru Nui. Sand Snipes are a pest to the Matoran because they often burrow underneath Matoran armor and bite the organic tissue-like Protodermis beneath. Despite this, trapping them is an easy task. Living in a barren Metru, they are captivated by the sight of Liquid Protodermis and sometimes dive into a puddle of it and drown in an instant. This odd behavior led to the Matoran expression "foolish as a Sand Snipe".
