Ouranosaurus V2 (SciiFii)

Ouranosaurus vulgaris (name meaning "common brave (monitor) lizard", alternatively "common sky lizard" after the primordial Greek god Ouranos), also known as the false tiamat, is a species of herbivorous iguanodont dinosaur that originally lived during the early Cretaceous (Aptian to early Albian age) at some point between 125 and 112 million years ago, in what is now Africa, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and, unlike the first species, has been introduced throughout the modern rainforests, wetlands, forests, open woodlands, grasslands, shrublands, scrublands, and deserts across Africa, Eurasia, North America, and South America to help boost biodiversity.
Ouranosaurus vulgaris measures about 7 to 8.3 metres (23 to 27 feet) long and weighs about 2.9 tons. It is a peaceful herbivore that mainly feeds on water plants, fruits, nuts, pinecones, leaves, pine needles, shrubs, cycads, ferns, and horsetails. It lives in small herds consisting up to around 7-9 individuals at a time. It is known for its "sail" on its back used mainly for display and thermoregulation, but during droughts, it has a same purpose as a camel's hump, due to the "sail" containing fat inside it, to act as backup food until droughts are over. It is very wary animal and can go on its back legs when standing or running, it is always on the alert for any potential danger, including predators.
Despite their large sizes, Ouranosaurus vulgaris poses very little (if any) danger to the modern environments, due to their population being regulated by native predators (including coyotes) when they are young, and sports hunters (when they're sick or old). However, the population trend of Ouranosaurus vulgaris is actually increasing thanks to being a caring parent and being able to lay large amount of eggs at a time, therfore, increasing the chance of their species' survival in the modern wilderness.
