Hexameryx (SciiFii)

The six-horned pronghorn (Hexameryx glosbe) is a species of artiodactyl of the family Antilocapridae that originally lived in North America during the Pliocene as an extinct species, Hexameryx simpsoni, and the genus itself was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced throughout the modern open woodlands, grasslands, shrublands, and scrublands across North America to help boost biodiversity. The six-horned pronghorn grows to be about 1 meter (3.3 feet) in length, having the shoulder height of 80 сentimeters (31 inches), and weighs around 36.3 kilograms (80 lbs). As its name suggests, the six-horned pronghorn has six well-forked horns that are primarily used for interspecies combat during the breeding seasons, although they can be used for defense against potential predators. The six-horned pronghorn is diurnal (active mainly during the day). Though solitary by nature, six-horned pronghorns may form loose groups of three to five, with one or more adults, sometimes accompanied by juveniles. This species of pronghorn feeds on grasses, herbs, shrubs, foliage, flowers and fruits. Gestation lasts about eight months, following which one or two calves are born. They are kept concealed for the first few weeks of their birth. The young remain with the mother for about a year. The conservation status of the six-horned pronghorn is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts and the six-horned pronghorn's wide range.
