Four of these tentacles are much larger then the rest are prehensile and used for mating displays, fighting rivals, and strangulating tough prey. When startled, the main stands on end to scare away or intimidate enemies. Their tails are thick and powerful, ending with a flat flap of tough skin that is also used to intimidate by slapping the ground with a resounding thud. At the very tip of the tail is a small barb used for maiming defeated rivals, a powerful male Ghorrim will have few scratches. Their jaws are lined with two rows of small, sharp teeth and they have a large three-pronged tongues.
