==Biography==
When he was younger, Buck fell into the world of dinosaurs and got into trouble within a few seconds. He landed right in front of his nemesis Rudy, who attempted to kill him with his claw, but only got his right eye. Buck ran until he was able to climb up a tree, where he got a leaf and wrapped it around his eye like an eye patch. He was right above the eye of the hurricane when his enemy Rudy rose above the clouds and swallowed Buck whole to make his grim meal.
Buck was still alive, however. Before he could get swallowed, he grabbed onto Rudy's uvula and launched himself out, as well as punching one of Rudy's teeth out on his way. He then turned it into a knife that he uses in battle and decided to live in the Dinosaur World.
==Appearance==
Buck is a reddish-brown weasel with reddish-brown fur and a tan stomach with brownish spots on it. His body is long enough to twist around itself and has an overbite, with bottom fang showing. His most known trait is his right eye patch made from a leaf. When he had both eyes, they were bright blue.
==Personality and Traits==
Buck is a brave, intelligent, mischievous, heroic, slick, and protective weasel. He was so flexible that he could use it in any fighting scenario. He helps the gang get back home and retrieve Sid, but due to his tragic past, he seems a little insane and starts to have an obsession with catching Rudy. He also speaks with a slight, wet lisp.
