Diet:
Slimes (except Gordos, Gold Slimes and lucky slimes), Meat and Ranchers!
Favorite:
Ranchers!
Slimeology:
The Tarr are formed when a largo eats a plort unlike the ones it produces (ex. a pink tabby largo eats a honey plort). A terrible transformation occurs that turns the slime into a sludge filled with a swirling, prismatic array of colors and a relentless appetite. The Tarr seek only to consume and replicate. Because of this it can spread rapidly throughout the ranch.
The only way to stop a Tarr (outside of incinerating it or throwing it into the slime sea) is with fresh water. One splash will stop a Tarr from spawning new Tarr, and repeated splashes will destroy it entirely,also you can use the vacpack to grab it and throw it at a wall to kill it. However, one splash of fresh water does not kill the Tarr and it will continue to expand. Tarrs do go away naturally after a while of being inactive (in a place with nothing to destroy). Also if you try to corral the Tarr with an air net, it will repeatedly jump to break the air net and escape.
Alternatively, many ranchers recommend running away with their arms waving, screaming.
Rancher Risks:
The Tarr are the single biggest threat to ranchers. The Tarr will seek out slimes to consume and replicate themselves, but also devour chickens, rot crops in their proximity, and even bite ranchers!
Plortonomics:
The Tarr produce no plorts, only more Tarr. And then more Tarr still.
