A Question of Gluttony

I was wondering why the bog lords were crossing the road to go to the Spawning Glen - they must be starving for some reason. This just will not do!$B$BI mean, normally I wouldn't get involved, but if they continue to eat all of the sporeling pods they'll wipe them out!$B$BHere's what we'll do: I'll stay here and you head to the Quagg Ridge to the east and look for dietary clues as to why they're raiding the sporelings.
