Signed Groutlet boast a most unusual dance ritual. It appears almost entirely pointless, as the dance is neither for mating nor dominance. Most Groutlet spends their entire lives in solitude and both genders can produce eggs. Perhaps its ridiculous display is to lull combatants into a false sense of security and allow Groutlet to unleash an unexpected attack. Its tail feathers act as barbs that stick into the body of its enemies, repeatedly shocking them until they succumb.
