So I've decided to enter the Creature forge challenge on CGhub.
The contest thread can be found here: http://cghub.com/forum/showthread.php?p=148989#post148989

"This creature, a result of alien mutation, was first found in the rainforests of South-America. It seems to be nocturnal with no sense of vision; in addition, its soft anatomy causes it to be very weak if attacked directly. Moving similarly to a Praying Mantis or Chameleon, it feeds mostly on fish and other small animals. To reproduce, the creature lays eggs inside a host (mainly other alien species who arrived with it on the crash landing of 12-21-12). In its brief history, only 2 cases of human infestation are known, though many people have been brutally attacked during its feeding time.""
