Species Standards
Prefered Habitat: Maji live in the coldest of climates, usually tundras or polar areas.. As babies, they stay on
the snow and ice - but it is said that when they get older, they will become masters of the water.
Diet: Majikiuma are entirely carnivores, and as a general rule, will eat anything that they can catch.. and as
they are pack hunters, there is little that they cannot "take down".. however, as babies - milk would be the
best bet.
Call: Maji babies whimper and whine like puppies.. And, when they really want your attentions - they make
cute little "barks".
Special Care Needs: If you intend on training your Maji early to swim in the water, we'd suggest teaching it
with room-temperature water, as they're too young yet to handle colder temperatures of water (it soaks right
through their protective fur!). As they get older, into their juvie stage, they can handle cold water for longer
periods of time, and often enjoy playing in it.
Biology and Anatomy: These 'sea-puppies' are built for life in the chilly waters of northern lands. They have
two layers of thick, soft fur. The outer layer consists of long guard hairs that assist in keeping the icy waters
from ever actually touching their skin. The inner layer is made up of shorter, warm-and-fuzzy underfluff that
keeps the majikiuma relatively warm. In addition to protective fur, all majikiuma build up a sizable layer of
body fat right under the skin which also helps to conserve heat. All these heat-conserving characteristics
result in a pet that can keep warm in the coldest of waters and turns the majikiuma into one of the most
fun-to-hug pets in MML!
Behavioral Study: Maji are indeed pack hunters, and live in large prides in the wild. The females (msaka)
are the primary hunters, and the most vicious of the prides in the wild. Ndume (males) usually rely on the
Msaka for food and safety.. Unless, of course, the male happens to be the most dominant of them - the
mighty Msungo. Not even the females can rival with the Msungo! Beware of wild prides of Maji - they surely
wouldnt' have any problem in eating you (or your pet).
Suggested Uses: Aren't they so cute and fuzzy? Who wouldn't want such a cute pet? Plus - when they get
older, they're bound to be one of the best "water guard dogs" you could ever find!

Msaka: Msaka are all female, and the vicious hunters of the packs. They usually have shorter tempermants
- and even shorter tempermants when raising young (best not try to steal a baby!). They are the more
serious of the Majikiuma - and tend to be more grumpy by nature.. but dont' let that distract you, if you gain
their loyalty (and they -are- pack animals), you've got the worlds best aquatic "guard dog".
Ndume: Ndume are all male. They generally are more relaxed, and rely on the Msaka for food and safety.
They rarely live alone - and often squabble amongst themselves over "breeding rights".. though, the final call
is really up the females - who seem to have all the power. They spend most of their day lazying about, and
sometimes playing.. and - if they are paired up with a female, it's generally their job to give it lots of love and
effection - where-as the females do the more serious teaching, caring, feeding, and protecting of the young.
Msungo: Msungo are also all male. Often times, they can live quite peacefully on their own.. they need no
females to bring them food or keep them safe. Though, if they get the chance to impress a pride of females,
they'll surely take it.. Although Msaka are usually intimidated by Msungo - they still won't let anyone (or
anything) push them around. Though, Ndume are usually going to have a lot of problems after that.. Oh, a
Msungo usually won't kill them, but they certianly will have quite a few less "privilages" after that. Mighty and
Impressive, the Msungo is the most awe-inspiring warrior of the seas - and is often used as a symbol for
sailors

| Murk Depths This Majikuma is rumored to be able to swim to the deepest part of the ocean when it grows up! Of course, that's probably just hog-wash, after all, it still has to breathe air! It is however, very good at being stealthy in the water.. it's rather hard to see a dark object in the roiling black seas |
| Glacier The Glacier Majikiuma specialize in surviving in the coldest regions of the world - un-afraid of the freezing waters. It is rumored that they can even live while hybernating in a solid block of ice! But that can't be possible... can it..? |
