SCALE PLACEMENT
Canora can have as little as four or five scales, to an almost entire hide full. There is huge variations within the species, but each individual must have some scales and some fur, regardless of which side overtakes the body the most.
Some places on the body are considered more uncommon than others, so here is a little diagram to hopefully show you where on the body scales can sprout!

Every Canora will have scales on their legs, at the very least. Anywhere else varies. As you can see, on the middle portion of the body appears to be the most common place for scales to sprout, as well as near the eye. Most individuals stick to the normal, common and sometimes uncommon placements. There are not many cases seen with a rare scale placement.
Of course this is just general, and is not limited to just this! Each individual thrives originality. No two Canora are identical. Some Canora may have clusters of scales that appear to protrude from the body, or even have a lack of scales in the usually 'normal' places, i.e. the legs. Whilst it is considered normal and natural for a Canora to have leg scales, very few may have minimal or actually none there at all. This is a very rare trait. There have, however, been no sightings of a Canora with no leg scales whatsoever.
