Nothronychus (SciiFii)

Nothronychus borealis (meaning "boreal slothful claw") is a species of therizinosaurid theropod dinosaurs that originally lived in North America during the Late Cretaceous period as an extinct species, Nothronychus mckinleyi, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced to the modern rainforests, forests, swamps, and open woodlands of North America to help boost biodiversity. Nothronychus borealis is a bulky theropod with a wide, sloth-like hip (resembling that of the non-related ornithischians), four-toed feet with all four toes facing forward, elongated necks and prominent arms with sharp claws. It is a rather large animal, growing to be about 4.2 meters (14 ft) in length and weighing 800 kg (1,800 lb). It is a herbivore that primarily feed on fruits, leaves, pine needles, bark, twigs, shrubs, cycads, and ferns. It is a solitary animal that spends most of its life alone except during breeding seasons. The conservation status of Nothronychus borealis is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the animals' wide natural range and their tolerance to most of human activities.
