The Beelzebufo Palucocus is a large carnivorous amphibian from the late cretaceous period and has a languorous temperament appearing lazy most of the time or inactive.
Beelzebufo are a species of large frog but instead of being as harmless as they appear, these creatures have a powerful toxin that can cause paralysis at a rapid rate.
They will usually wander around harmlessly but once they are attacked, they will respond aggressively by licking its enemy with its tongue, inflicting damage as well as increasing torpor until they knock out their attacker and eventually end up killing them.
Beelzebufo will ignore players unless they are attacked or other Beelzebufo around them have been threatened, causing them to respond and attempt to turn the attack around.
Survivors can utilize Beelzebufo for their ability to make high jumps as well as their ability to devour insects and create cementing paste.

Overview
Beelzebufo are a good choice for tribes that are in dire need of cementing paste but lack the means to obtain them, especially when there are plenty of spawn locations where insects may appear.
The Beelzebufo’s attacks are incredible strong when dealing torpor and can be used to subdue almost any enemy, including enemy tames which can eventually cause several problems for those that go up against multiple tamed Beelzebufo.
Some tribes leave Beelzebufo on wander in order to take out enemies that wander nearby or to gather cementing paste but these will need to be set on aggressive and may need to be checked from time to time.
