	The behaviour of Hive Fleet Hydra has puzzled the [[Ordo Xenos]] over the years. They seem to focus on attacking planets that have recently repelled an earlier Tyranid invasion, usually eating whatever Tyranid remnants were left floating around, then attack the planet. Although Tyranid cannibalism is not an isolated or rare phenomenon, Hive Fleet Hydra is way more inclined to attack and eat other Tyranids when found. Experts have theorised that this is a way to get easy biomass and useful DNA strands to better evolve. Attacking a planet was recently victim to the Tyranids probably means its defenses are worn out and exhausted, and by eating other nids they manage to analyze whatever they used on the planet and plan accordingly. Lately, Hive Fleet Hydra has been ignoring most inhabited worlds in its path altogether, instead focusing on cannibalizing the splinters of other Hive Fleets. While this sounds like it would be detrimental to the Tyranids at first glance, some Magos Biologi have voiced fears that Hydra's cannibalism may be accelerating the evolution of the Tyranids as a whole somehow and could explain how Hydra is able to build up its numbers so quickly.
