Hațeg Island goblin (SciiFii)

The Hațeg Island goblin (Pyroraptor minoris), also known as the insular goblin, is a species of dromaeosaurid dinosaur that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced to the Hațeg Island to help boost biodiversity. Compared with the closely related green goblin, the Hațeg Island goblin is smaller in size, growing to be about the size of a medium-sized domestic chicken and reaching an average length of 43 inches (110 centimeters). Like all "natural" dromaeosaurs, it is a carnivore that mainly prey on animals about the size of or smaller than itself (if hunting alone), but can hunt prey twice its size if it is hunting in packs consisting of its (fully-grown or subadult) siblings. It is either a solitary animal or a social animal, depending on an individual, however, it generally does not live in packs of unrelated Hațeg Island goblins, and can only mate with Hațeg Island goblins of different genders if it is hunting alone. The Hațeg Island goblin can lay around 3-7 eggs at a time, the eggs hatch about the same speed as the chicken eggs hatching, and the young are cared for by their parents until they are juvenilles, when they must fend for themselves, and the siblings of around the same age can live with its own siblings if it wants to, even if its siblings are mothers/fathers of their own hatchlings. The conservation status of the Hațeg Island goblin is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the Hațeg Island goblin's wide range and its tolerance to most of human activities.
