South American ghoul (SciiFii)

The South American ghoul (Rioraptor gracilis) is a species of non-avian troodont theropod dinosaur that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii. The South American ghoul was originally planned to be featured in the now-scrapped Cretaceous Park: Argentina, but due to the incident involving the criminals who broke in the park and stole all 9 of the eggs of South American ghouls, before unintentionally releasing them into the wilderness of Argentina after getting arrested by the Argentine police force. Over time, the populations of South American ghouls had exploded from just 9 individuals to more than 800,000 throughout South America in just little more than half a century, thanks to the species' fast and frequent reproduction, its adaptability to a wide range of habitats, and its varied diet. The South American ghoul has an average length of 2.3 meters (7.5 feet) long and weighing around 23 kilograms (51 lbs). It has large eye sockets and stereoscopic vision, allowing for good depth perception, and it has good vision in light and very good night vision. It has a long, low head, a depressed muzzle, sharp teeth and a relatively large brain. Swift and smart, like its relatives, it is an omnivore that feeds primarily on invertebrates, smaller vertebrates, fruits, and leaves. South American ghouls are usually together in pairs or small groups consisting of families, such as a mated pair and their young, or a male with several females having kinship ties. The young of the mated pair remain with their parents to assist in caring for new chicks. The conservation status of the South American ghoul is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the South American ghoul's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
