Palaeohatteria (SciiFii)

Palaeohatteria varanus is a species of sphenacodonts that originally lived from the Early Permian period (Sakmarian stage) of Saxony, Germany, as an extinct species, Palaeohatteria longicaudata, and the genus itself was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and now lives in its own enclosure in Paleozoic Park in Downey, California. Palaeohatteria varanus is a fairly small synapsid, up to 60 cm in length and with a mass of about 3 kilograms. Palaeohatteria varanus is a medium-sized predator, feeding primarily on insects and smaller vertebrates. Palaeohatteria varanus is known to dig burrows and lay clutches of around 10-15 eggs at a time in them in just 1.5 months after mating. Like mammals, the close relatives of pelycosaurs, however, once the eggs hatch after 2 months of incubation, the mothers care for their young and they produce milk glands to feed their young until they're juveniles about 2 more months later, when they become fully independent from their mothers.
