It has been proposed that this page be moved to Hook line ponytail due to the following reason: There's barely anything "integral" about this, so substitutive nomenclature isn't a good idea and causes unnecessary confusion. "Hook" and "line" are established and clearly visible; "ponytail" would be the name for the five-cell tail-plus-one-cell component (halfway between a "tail" and "hooked tail"). |
The integral with hook and tail is a 12-cell still life.
Construction
A 5-glider synthesis of this still life was found in January 2020.[1] Some known alternate syntheses can be found in Mark Niemiec's database.[2]

Occurrence
Among the 121 still lifes with 12 cells, this is the 66th most common still life according to Catagolue.
There are no occurrences of this still life in final patterns of collisions in octohash, octo3obj or octo3g databases.
