So I have to point something out here. If we're assuming that this particular creature died here, and that this biome formed around its corpse, are we assuming that it formed largely off of the biomass of its corpse? Because if that's the assumption, then the decay of just one adult was enough to cause a chasm to turn into a toxic mess. If there were ever more than one of these on the planet at a time, then that has some pretty big implications about the state of the rest of this planet, even without the Kharaa infection.
