Zoat

Alternatively, it is possible that as the [[Hive Fleets]] evolved more, the Zoats became a less useful tool, their free thoughts an undesired quality. Many of the Zoats, sensing that they were soon to reach the end of their helpfulness to their brutal masters, staged a rebellion. It quickly was crushed, and the rebel Zoats were soon purged from the [[Hive Mind]]'s forces. Those who survived fled ahead of the main Hive Fleets, and made up that first fleet, and were soon trapped between their former masters and their new aggressors who saw them as an invading force. Being warlike by nature, they typically reacted in kind, and so ultimately allied themselves against the Imperium regardless.
Eventually, as Tyranids became a more common sight in the galaxy after the invasion of [[Hive Fleet Behemoth]], Zoats were no longer seen outside the ranks of the Tyranids. Their sightings became less and less frequent, and they appear to have been entirely absent from [[Hive Fleet Leviathan]]. If the only Zoats to have entered the Galaxy were those of the initial fleet, known as [[Colossus (Hive Fleet)|Colossus]], then their absence can be explained, as the last known vessel of that fleet was destroyed above Zorastra in 226.[[M39]], after the fleet provoked the [[Zorastra-Attila war]].
