New species of water animals are discovered in sweet waters world-wide. Individuals appeared around the same time in every corner of the world. The little Nosy Waterbeast (Aquae Bestia Nasum Magnum) is another member of the Nosy Beasts phylum (Bestiae Nasus Curiosus) and was spotted just a few weeks ago for the very first time. The little animal got some attention for being very friendly and curious about people and cameras.
The spotted individuals' body length is an average of 3cm (1.2”), and with their noses added a total of approximately 5cm (1.9”). They have a fresh green base colour, adorned with yellow-red spots and dark red legs.
The Nosy Waterbeast appears to be friendly with other creatures too and is the most happy when it has some company. It's playful approach and happy character makes it easy to keep in captivity.
It's diet mainly consists of sweet-water plants and algae, that it stuffs into it's mouth for transportation. There is no confirmed information about the animals natural hiding place, as it is always spotted in the wild while approaching people.
