The Mearon are a subterranean species that tunnel most of their lives. Usually their heads are held closer to their bodies, the massive layers of skin that covers their neck protects them from any damage while digging around. But this particular Mearon decided he needed a stretch and has ventured above ground. Normally their skin is pale, with little pigmentation due to the massive ammount of time spent underground; as you can see however this fellow almost has a tan. :) I know his neck looks a little funny, but even fully extended the species' neck is still completely draped in thick, stretchy skin.
