Ant-eating chalico (SciiFii)

The ant-eating chalico (Chalicomyrmeco triphaga) is a species of chalicothere that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the forests, open woodlands, grasslands, shrublands, and scrublands across South America to help boost biodiversity, making it the only species of chalicothere known in South America. The ant-eating chalico is a medium-sized animal, growing to be about the size of the American black bear (Ursus americanus). To avoid competition with notoungulates ane liptoterns, the ant-eating chalico is an insectivore that primarily feeds on colonial insects such as ants and termites, using its sharp claws to dig through wood and mounds, and using its long, sticky tongue to lap up the insects it feeds on. The ant-eating chalico is a rather solitary animal that prefers to spend most of its life alone except during the breeding seasons. The conservation status of the ant-eating chalico is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts and the ant-eating chalico's wide range.
