Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, an juvenile ironspine must hit with its bite attack. It can then attempt to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity. If it wins the grapple check, it establishes a hold and can rake.

Pounce (Ex): If a juvenile ironspine charges a foe, it can make a full attack, including two rake attacks.

Rake (Ex): Attack bonus +6 melee, damage 1d3+1.

Skills: Juvenile ironspines have a +8 racial bonus on Jump checks and a +4 racial bonus on Hide and Move Silently checks. Juvenile ironspines have a +8 racial bonus on Balance and Climb checks. A juvenile ironspine can always choose to take 10 on a Climb check, even if rushed or threatened. *In areas of tall grass or heavy undergrowth, the Hide bonus improves to +8.
