As far as I can tell, none have ever been seen moving - they’re just reproduction machines. The lungs would make them, uh, pulsate? Also, I’m 90% this picture is not canon at all. I posted it mostly as a joke.
Interesting. So, if they can‘t move, they would have to reproduce by sending pollen into the air or something similar. I wonder how they birth their offspring. They would have to eject them at high speeds to reach new areas.
So they either evolved to be parasitic by nature, or they rely on being pushed along by the growing pile of tribbles or they originate from a very windy world, where they move like tumbleweed.
True, but eating them on a planetary level would counteract that, no? They could breed them to bite, even.
Maybe there‘s just not much to eat with a tribble being mostly fur.
Mostly uterus, it seems.
How do they move?

Do you know those animals like bees and some fish that copulate once for life?
It’s heavily implied that the tribbles do it once in several generations. So I imagine they do it when they get luck to be thrown together.

Oh, I vote on the tumbleweed option. It’s the most reasonable one.
