Gobul Ecology

Gobul lurks at the bottom of the Flooded Forests waters, burried in the mud with only its plant like whiskers sticking out to attract herbivorous prey like Espioth. But nothing, even Gobul, can live on just an Espioth, its KO inflicting antennae can help catch fast moving fish or Ludroth and its paralyzing spikes can maybe help kill a smaller Gobul or lone Roarudorsu. Because it's a poor swimmer, it almost always stays at the bottom of the rivers and lakes. It's poor swimming also makes it a great meal for a Lagiacrus, the true king of the jungle waters, or even a Rathian, Ibirujo, or large pack of Ludroth and Roarudorosu. To make up for not being a great swimmer, it appears to have great night vision (suggested by its eyes appearing to glow in its intro), its ability to paralyze and KO enemies and prey, and its ability to burrow in the mud. This Leviathan also appears to resemble more of a cross between an angler fish and salamander instead of a Nothosaur, indicating that it could be some link between the Leviathan wyverns and whatever their ancestors were.
