     Zerglings are physically adaptable creatures, able to climb near vertical surfaces (90%) and are extraordinarily fast, though they are generally easy to exterminate.  Usually, zergling eyes are orange, though some have been observed to be red.  Such is their ability to see in low light conditions (infra vision out to 120 ft.), these eyes can appear pure black (courtesy of the expanding pupils to allow more light to the retina).




Zergling is owned by Blizzard and this is a fan work.
