Species X is a new biological weapon created by Imperial scientists.
The predator is produced by an airborne virus planted in the population
that is to be destroyed.  After the virus enters a host, it begins to use
the host's body materials to genetically grow the predator in the chest
cavity.  The predator is assembled very quickly and gestates in only 3D hours.
After the predator exits the host's body it will reach full size in only
2D hours.  Because the species grows quickly, it also dies quickly.
Death will occur in 48 hours after the creature exits the host.  
Their short life cycle and inability to breed makes them easy to subdue after
they devastate an area.  The only way they can multiply is if a host
comes in contact with some if the creature's blood, which contains the virus
that created it.  The use of the creature at the moment is only in the test
phase.  But many high-ranking officials are eager to proceed with tests on
military targets.
