Garden Gnome habitat and behaviour

A remarkable feature of Garden Gnomes is their ability to remain still for hours on end. While this originally evolved as a way to outsmart predators, it is now used as a means to spread throughout suburban areas.

As Garden Gnome are “strikingly beautiful” ( a personal opinion help by many)as well as utilitarian, their value to humans living in urban environments is quite high. Rather than run from poaching humans, Garden Gnomes have learned to stand perfectly still, to the extent that they are often confused with statuary.

Gnome and GnomideOnce picked up by a human and spirited off, a Garden Gnome begins to carve out a new home in his new domain. This is quite beneficial, as Garden Gnome could never cover such distances without assistance.

Garden Gnomes are rarely seen together, as they are nocturnal creatures. They hunt, socialize and mate (although how this is done is still a mystery, we have yet to see any female Garden Gnomes – gnown as Gnomides ) under cover of darkness, often inside their subterranean dwellings.

Garden Gnomes prefer darkness, and if caught outside as dawn strikes, they instinctively freeze in whatever position or location they were in. This stationary pose lasts until dark. During this time, Garden Gnomes go into a sort of trance, where they rest, and explore their surroundings with their telepathic powers.

It is a little known fact that Garden Gnome have a long standing alliance with dogs.
