  1. Mogwai orientalisThe Common Mogwai A Brief Life History

  2. Immature Phase…

  3. Mature Phase…

  4. The Three Rules • 1. Don’t expose them to bright light. Why? • 2. Don’t get them wet. Why? • 3. Don’t ever feed them after midnight. Why?

  5. Genetic problems (#1,#2) • White light response takes out structural dimers in the DNA by triggering production of a proofreading enzyme, UV light mutates easily since it doesn’t have a proofreading polymerase, as well as disturbs the natural nocturnal animal • Reproduction overload. No regulation of associated hormones.*

  6. Hormonal problems (#3) • Stimulating cocoon stage because of overlap in productions, happens early in life.* • Early and constant asexual reproduction hormones produced, leads to drain of resources.*

  7. High Metabolism Leads to Aggressive behavior • In patches on back during asexual regeneration • After asexual generation (both phases) • Metamorphosis through sexual maturation

  8. During Metamorphosis • Most of the fur lost • Longer face • Eye shape • Teeth • Skin color • Attitude

  9. Asexual reproduction • Exact clones • Different characteristics • Variable on/off switches due to temperature of water (that changes the osmotic potential of the asexual reproductive cells

  10. Sexual reproduction • From mature-> sexually mature phase only. • After sexually mature can not have any more asexual offspring

  11. Management • Modified pets • Fur/leather farms • Hunting preserves • Genetic research • Biomass production
