- The weakest/most vulnerable part of their bodies is the shoulder socket, as it's surrounded by bare skin and the spiracle openings. The back and chest fur usually does a pretty good job of hiding it. If you were a slugcat with a spear, this is where you would want to aim.

- The spines on their back are hollow. This is mainly for communication, as they produce a louder noise when bristling (which they do when scared, angry or upset). Alongside clicking their mandibles, they can't really make any other noises and are generally silent.

- The layout of the Scavenger's key internal organs is pretty consistent amongst most other chordate-equivalent animals (paired ventral nerve cords, dorsally-placed heart, lungs/gills towards the back with nearby spiracles). It's not horrendously efficient for the more developmentally advanced creatures such as scavengers, as they're mostly holdover traits from their simpler, molluscan ancestors.
