Paracrax (SciiFii)

The colossal seriema (Paracrax giganticus), also known as the titan seriema and the titanic seriema, is a species of flightless bird, most closely related to the South American seriemas, that originally lived in what is now North America during the Oligocene as an extinct species of Paracrax and the genus itself was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced throughout the modern open woodlands, grasslands, and shrublands across North America to help boost biodiversity. The colossal seriema is the largest species of Cariamiformes (seriemas and relatives) to have ever existed, with the average height of about 6.7 feet (2 meters) tall, nearly rivaling an ostrich (Struthio camelus) in size. Like the largest Bathornis species, the colossal seriema is totally flightless and is a cursorial carnivore much like its South American cousins, primarily feeding on any animal smaller than itself, but it can also scavenge on carrion of larger animals. The colossal seriema is a solitary animal that prefers to either live throughout most of its life alone or live in pairs that mate for life, but groups of colossal seriemas can congregate during the breeding seasons. The conservation status of the colossal seriema is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts and the colossal seriema's wide range.
