 The Manla is a swift, herd-dwelling mountain runner native to the [[atrana_mountains|Atrana Mountains]] in the [[asari|Asari Region]] of the [[equator_sections_east_and_west|Eastern Equatorial Section]] of the [[habitual_belt|Habitual Belt]] on [[the_planet_voi_700_d|VOI 700 D]]. The Manla is a swift, herd-dwelling mountain runner native to the [[atrana_mountains|Atrana Mountains]] in the [[asari|Asari Region]] of the [[equator_sections_east_and_west|Eastern Equatorial Section]] of the [[habitual_belt|Habitual Belt]] on [[the_planet_voi_700_d|VOI 700 D]].
  
-Thriving along lower slopes and wind-scoured valleys, Manla herds graze hardy alpine scrub and grasses. Their distinctive tri-ocular head (two lateral eyes plus a central forehead eye) and four independently swiveling ears** give them exceptional threat awareness — especially against aerial predators like the [[arr|Arr]] or [[moar|Moar]]. Two short, swept-back **keratin horns** provide display and lateral sparring without snagging brush.+Thriving along lower slopes and wind-scoured valleys, Manla herds graze hardy alpine scrub and grasses.

 During the [[beta_age|Beta Age]], excessive [[the_humans|Exohuman]] hunting caused a severe decline. The [[peace_treaty|Peace Treaty]] of the [[the_gamma_age|Gamma Age]] imposed strict bans, and numbers have slowly rebounded. Today the Manla is a symbol of resilience and ongoing conservation in the Atrana range. During the [[beta_age|Beta Age]], excessive [[the_humans|Exohuman]] hunting caused a severe decline.
