: It stands along paths pretending to be a tree. If it starts raining, it seems to disappear.
: To avoid being attacked, it does nothing but mimic a tree. It hates water and flees from rain.
: Although it always pretends to be a tree, its composition appears more similar to rock than to vegetation.
