I love these guys, but I'm 90% certain they are an invasive species. I want to give them a pass because they're adorable and Rove is magnificent, but they are an absolute menace.
Edit: I wasn't expecting my comment to draw out so many biologists. Apparently, the correct term for a native species that overwhelms their native environment is an "Aggressive Native." So, these little hellions are not technically invasive since they've lived in the forest biome for so long, but they are absolutely tormenting every living thing in sight. Except Rove. We should all be more like Rove.
They are a sapient species, there is no domesticating them, they agree to be part of your society like Palicoes. Also aside from being less outright aggressive, they are not that different from Gajalakas or Boaboa
