Thank you aphyer! You’re absolutely right, the size is 3.85, so it needs like 0.8 energy per turn.
5⁄0.8≈6, with this number it’s more likely for the animal to die out by random chance.
I redid the experiment on the Benthic biome, and removed the cold resistance, set Seeds in the biome to 1, and the species survives with around 6-21 in population, which is around the population of 12 we would expect.
