Daeodon

==Summary==
Daeodon is a genus of entelodont, a group informally referred to as "Hell Pigs" or "Terminator Pigs"; however, entelodonts are thought to be more closely related to hippos and cetaceans than pigs, hogs, or peccaries. Among the entelodonts, Daeodon is the largest known from a complete skeleton. Its name comes from the Greek words daios, meaning "hostile" or "dreadful," and odon, meaning "teeth."Brown, R. W. (1954). Composition of scientific words: A manual of methods and a lexicon of materials for the practice of logotechnics. Smithsonian Institution Press. ISBN 978-0874740011. The specifics of this creature's diet are uncertain, but it is most likely an opportunistic omnivore. Though some have suggested it would have more likely been a scavenger, there has been evidence in other entelodonts of predatory behavior and it had multiple characteristics that would indicate it was a predator. It inhabited North America during the late Oligocene to early Miocene epochs, with many fossils found in the Agate Fossil Beds, inhabiting a seasonal floodplain environment.
