Question: What do Chilly bugs eat that can be found on all planets/ atmospheres?

 

[trader jim]

Chilly Bugs eat ANY type of Bacteria or any critter small enough to be considered Bacteria,
from ANY type of enviroment.....the bacteria can be living OR dead....on Vacume worlds they some how can generate enough O2 to survive and function...not understood.

they do best when wrapped in old dirty sweat suits.dirty socks, dirty under wear, dirty JOCK STRAPS!!!......

SSSooooo, when you Travellers get real cold all of a sudden and you have to "scratch".....well be CAREFUL!!!!

 

[Liam Devlin]

Kewl TJ...so they eat bacteria/bacterium. A beetle sort of insect/arthopod? And to keep their internal heat for their existence they shed cold outwards. Ok. so far so good.

How large are they? (Traveller bestiary/ 101 lifeforms has some large arthopods in it).
Are they nocturnal/ or work in daylight?

How many legs do they have?

HAve they been geneered any? Or are they a universal critter.

ANy relation to the Terran Dung beetle?

Not really. The chilling effect can cause sudden and painful muscle cramps and spasms.
