This massive alien sea creature uses icebergs as a nursery for it's unfertilized eggs. The female will deposit the eggs in the arctic regions of the planet. The eggs form one large pod that the iceberg forms over time. The eggs can lay dormant for centuries until a male of the species detects their presence within the ice. The male will devour the iceberg and uses a thermal reaction within his body to melt away the ice and awaken the eggs for internal fertilzation. The fertilized eggs are released threw special blow hole like vents on the back of it's body.

stunning concept. I especially like the fire in the depth of his mouth to melt the iceberg.

Fantastic and impressive, great work. It's such an original idea.
