Galechirus (SciiFii)

Galechirus vulgaris is a species of non-mammal anomodont therapsid that originally lived in Russia during the Late Permian as an extinct species, Galechirus scholtzi, and the genus itself was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and now lives in Paleozoic Park located in Downey, California. Galechirus vulgaris is about 30 centimeters (1 feet) long and weighs about 4 kilograms (8.8 lbs). Galechirus vulgaris is somewhat oddly proportioned compared to its relatives, with a long neck, a narrow jaw, and a high-arching back. It is also an insectivore, and has small numerous teeth perfect for crushing and chewing small arthropods. The eye sockets of Galechirus vulgaris are very large and spacious, allowing a very keen eyesight and even a nocturnal lifestyle. This animal should not be mistaken for Galepus; while their names sound rather similar, both animals are morphologically distinct genera from one another.
