{Note: Two Encyclopedia entries exist in the game code for mutated monsters which do not appear in the finished game. The first of these creatures is called the Bubuk, and it was apparently going to appear in Episode 2 at some point during the game’s development.}

Colonies of insect-like creatures that feed on bacteria that clings to the exoskeletons of bio-engineered creatures. It is believed that the Bubuks actually inadvertently serve as transports for the bacteria, after it is ingested. This bacteria is then spread to vast areas as the Bubuks travel from place to place.

Scientists also believe that the bacteria carried by these creatures is partially responsible for the increased speed of evolution amongst bio-engineered creatures. Currently, much effort is being spent on learning about the bacteria, and its effects on the genes of bio-engineered creatures.
