Repenomamus (SciiFii)

The troll badger (Repenomamus maximus) is a species of gobiconodontid mammal, despite its name, that originally lived in China that date to the early Cretaceous period, about 125-123.2 million years ago, as two extinct species, Repenomamus robustus and Repenomamus giganticus, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii. The troll badger is one of several originally Mesozoic mammals that feeds on larger vertebrates, including small non-avian dinosaurs (such as their hatchlings), using its strong jaws with robust and sharp teeth for ripping out chunks of flesh. The troll badger is among the largest mammals originally from the Mesozoic era, being around 50% larger than the extinct Repenomamus robustus and about the size of Repenomamus giganticus, with a total length of around 1 meter (3 feet 3 inches) and a mass of 12–14 kilograms (26–31 lb). The troll badger has a sprawling posture unlike small-to-medium-sized therian mammals, with plantigrade feet. Unlike therian mammals, the troll badger has a proportionally longer body with shorter limbs. Like most other non-placental mammals, the troll badger has epipubic bones and it lays eggs that hatches into undeveloped young like monotremes. The troll badger was originally planned to be included in Cretaceous Park located in Sacramento, California, however, on 11:32 PM in July 3rd, 2047, five pairs of troll badgers were stolen by a man by the name of Arnold M. Johnson, who broke into the park in order to steal and sell troll badgers in an illegal pet trade. However, the troll badgers, with their strong jaws, bit Arnold and they ran off into the wilderness before the police came and arrested Arnold. Ever since that event, the troll badgers' population of just ten had exploded to more than 500 in just a decade, thanks to the troll badger's fast and frequent reproduction. Despite this, the troll badger is not an invasive species, since there's no physical evidence to suggest that troll badgers are negatively impacting the native mammals, birds, or reptiles of California, and the native mammalian predators such as bobcats and coyotes may be controlling the troll badger populations in some areas.
