Since their combined forms could potentially be highly intelligent, the Lekgolo were able to develop [[Technological Achievement Tiers|Tier 3]] technology on their own, though their space travel capabilities remained highly limited due to the high gravity of their homeworld.{{Ref/Reuse|bestiarum}} At some point following the firing of the Halo Array and their [[Conservation Measure|reintroduction]] to the moons of [[Te]], a number of Lekgolo colonies settled in Forerunner installations orbiting the gas giant. These colonies developed distinct appetites; while many consumed the Forerunner structures themselves for food, others ate anything except Forerunner materials. After several millennia, the Forerunner constructs were almost completely broken down, with the debris forming rings in the planet's orbit.<ref name="ch">'''Halo: Contact Harvest''', ''pages 269-271''</ref>
