Back to Alex's location for a moment.

Something had stepped on a dead twig prompting Alex to look in that direction.
Three giant eyes monitor their surroundings from their wide sockets. A wide nose rests below, but it's the enormous mouth below that takes all the attention. A creepy smile reveals rows of dull teeth and a coarse tongue.
Large spiky ears sit on each side of its large, bony head, which itself is covered in tiny hairs and has two broad horns protruding from the top.
Its small fat body is slightly hunched over. Two thick almost branch-like arms dangle at its sides and end in claw-like hands with small fingers, of which it has 6 in total.
Its legs are wide and slightly bent, each ending in lean hooves.
Its body is covered in oily skin and its shoulders are about the same width as its pelvis.
