The 'Glandeur' is a creature that was scrapped from [[Rayman 3]] during [[Rayman 3 (early production)|early production]], but still makes a cameo in [[Razoff]]'s mansion.

However, 'gland' is also the French word used acorn, which this squirrel seemed to posses. The Glandeur was most likely an environmental creature.

Its name translates to "slacker" in French, however it is also a pun on the word ''gland'', meaning "acorn", which this squirrel is seen holding. The glandeur was most likely an environmental creature.
