Locations ▸Frozen Inferno
DalmoDalmo's Log This frosty flier may exhale frigid breath, but you can touch it without having to worry about freezing! Its face remains quite cool, but it expels warm air from the little holes on its sides. If you're feeling chilled, you could sidle up next to this little one!
OlimarOlimar's Log This creature possesses three lungs: an air sac used as its primary respiratory organ, a flotation bladder that gives it its buoyancy, and a cold sac that stores cold air.
Like the Puffy Blowhog, its buoyancy is a result of the hydrogen produced by electrolysis. Its icy breath is condensed carbon dioxide, much like the Snowy Blowhog.
Different species within the Blowhog family have many features in common when you look closely at the structure and characteristics of their internal organs.
LouieLouie's Log Has the consistency of candy-coated chewing gum and leaves a refreshing, mentholated aftertaste.
