Stalker Teeth

The Stalker Tooth is a raw material that is dropped by Stalkers under special conditions.

When a Stalker sees metal salvage, it will rush to pick it up. When this happens, the Stalker will sometimes leave behind a Stalker Tooth. A good tactic to get teeth from Stalkers is to tease them with the Seamoth. There is a high probability that the Stalker will bite the Seamoth and drop a Stalker Tooth. Another method is to tame them by feeding them them  Peepers.

It is not possible to obtain Stalker Teeth by killing Stalkers.

Data Bank Entry
Extended analysis of Stalker dental samples has been completed.

In other local lifeforms tooth composition follows a familiar biological process whereby a calcified structure is grown in the gum.

Stalker teeth are unique in exhibiting extraordinary lightness and strength, and containing only trace amounts of calcium. They gain their structural integrity from a titanium/iron compound somehow produced in the stalker's body.

This suggests some possible explanations for the creature's metal-gathering behavior, but raises more questions: Assessment: More research required.
 * By what process can the stalker convert raw metals into dental structure?
 * What explains this seemingly costly evolutionary adaptation? An armored opponent? A calcium shortage?
