Official artwork released by the developers has listed the '''Tree Leeches''' as potentially being hazardous or intractable in the future. However, given that they have a name that is displayed when looking at them, it is very likely that they will continue to be harvestable in future builds.

Data Bank Entry

Parasitic, fungus-like growth found attached to other fauna. An enzyme is released by the organism which dissolves a hole in the skin of the host, from which it leeches nutrients directly.

Outer, tooth-lined jaw serves no identified purpose. May be used during a different stage of the organism's lifecycle?

Assessment: Exploitable fungal enzymes
