🔊 Carrie’s Sound Profile • Cries: Soft, plaintive calls echoing through the rainforest at night — like a distant, longing “eee-ahh” • Clicks: Sharp, rhythmic clicking noises she makes while navigating branches or communicating • Shrieks: Sudden high-pitched, piercing shrieks when startled or excited • Squeaks: Rapid, tiny squeaky sounds as she scampers or interacts with beetles

🍃 How Carrie Eats Beetles

Carrie spots the beetles first with her glowing green eyes, catching their tiny movements even in the darkest corners of the rainforest. She tilts her head curiously, her brown nose twitching as she locks onto the sound of their clicking shells.

With lightning-fast reflexes, Carrie leaps from branch to branch, landing silently just inches away. She uses her strong orange paws to grab onto the branch for balance, then carefully plucks a beetle from the bark using her nimble fingers.

Once caught, she studies it with fascination—her ears twitching as the beetle wriggles—and then gently crunches it between her sharp little teeth. You can hear a faint crick-crack in the night as she munches contently.

When she’s full, she licks her paws clean and lets out a soft squeak of satisfaction, her eyes gleaming brighter under the moonlight before she leaps away to find her next spooky snack.

Sounds: cries, clicks, shrieks, squeaks.

Carrie lives in the rainforest.

Carrie uses her paws to climb up trees and to eat beetles.
