Anteosaurus (SciiFii)

Anteosaurus sciifii (meaning “SciiFii's Antaeus reptile”) is a species of large carnivorous synapsid that originally lived during the Capitanian epoch of the Guadalupian (266–260 million years ago) in what is now South Africa and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and now lives in Paleozoic Park located in Downey, California. Like the well-known Moschops, it is a dinocephalian, a clade of large-bodied therapsids that once flourished from 270 to 260 million years ago and then (until SciiFii brought them back) went extinct without their native modern descendants. Anteosaurus sciifii hunts rather like crocodiles, pulling land animals into the water, and doesn't hunt like mammalian predators due to the combination of the animal's strong tail and weak, sprawling legs. Its body is well-suited to projecting itself forward, both in hunting and in head-butting.
