* VoluntaryShapeshifter: One of the Endlings is a shapeshifter, able to take on the physical appearance and memories of those imitated. But because this Endling feeds on [[EmotionEater energy generated by negative emotion]], uses the technological knowledge from Ling to build a mental torture machine in order to have a ready supply of anguish to feed upon. This is the only Endling Ling physically attacks, which shows how dangerous this one is.

* [[ManEatingPlant Carnivorous Plant:]] Hewes is studying a plant Endling she found. The plant turns out to be carnivorous, capable of subduing potential victims by creating by inducing a somnambulant state, so prey is easier to capture and digest. This plant finds humans easiest to entrance, due to their memories being easier to source as illusions for the pacification process.

[[caption-width-right:350:Four orphans, the last elephant in existence and an a pair of extraterrestrial Endlings]]

''Endlings'' is a Science-Fiction show that airs on CBC Television in Canada, Hulu in America and ABC in Australia.
The series is produced by Sinking Ship Entertainment.

In the near future, when an alien arrives to abduct the last living elephant to add to a collection of Endlings, the landing pod is damaged and crashes into a barn halfway around the world. Because the pilot collector ejected the preservation pods prior to impact to safeguard them, the local kids have to recover the missing pods and return them to the alien for safekeeping.
This is often complicated by the fact that many of the pods have been opened and need to be reactivated, usually unleashing some alien creature into the local area.
