Video: PSA
Someone wasn't doing inventory on liftoff--
[Ben's red whiskers bristle irascibly. This is careless stuff. It happens, but he doesn't have to like it.]
Everyone who goes outside the fence should already be counting their gear, but if you needed a reason, these props are it. Adaptive little critters like this can wreak havoc on an ecosystem, and this ecosystem is plenty problematic already.
The largest 'predators' on Quadratus, the spiders, won't eat props. Hounds may be able to detect them and hopefully the pseudofelinoids-- the beasts or the cats depending on your parlance-- will think they're tasty. But the upshot is that there may not be a control if these things get a foothold in the wild.
We all know what bullfrogs did to Australia on Terra, right? And terran brown rats on Shesha?
Double-check your gear before you go out. Even if you don't care about the ecosystem, the last thing you want is to reach for your last bottle of water and have it run off.

I bet you came here to study all the animals, right?
Re: Video
And the ecology around them, yes.
[The little fellow's mannerisms remind him of a prospector he met on Nifflheim-- Holloway. Man must be sixty some-odd now. He had the same laid back traveller's way.]
What brings you here?
Re: Video
I had to leave my best friend behind, though, but she says she'll be okay. She's probably relaxin' right now, but it'd be nice if she also came here.
