_______________________________________________

(Alice p.238):  A {ngIbvay} is a weird animal found on Qo’noS that looks like a rock but can suddenly open up and stick out something and grab a piece of food (like a frog does with flies). It doesn’t do this very frequently, so I guess it makes sense to say it’s patient. But it’s really just not hungry very often.

SEE ALSO:
mabeb  	toad-like or  frog-like creature (n)
ghIlab ghew  	glob fly (n)
nagh  		rock,  stone (n)
tuv  		be patient (v)
