Saint Bathans mammal (SciiFii)

The Saint Bathans mammal (genus and species unknown) is a species of primitive mammal that originally lived from the Early Miocene (Altonian) of New Zealand, being the only native fully-terrestrial flightless non-bat mammal of New Zealand, and the Saint Bathans mammal was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and, unlike other small mammals, intentionally introduced throughout the modern rainforests, wetlands, forests, and open woodlands of New Zealand to help boost biodiversity. Originally a member of the Saint Bathans fauna, it is notable for being a late surviving "archaic" mammal species, neither a placental nor a marsupial, being part of the clade "Zealanditheria". Like many of the small mammals, the Saint Bathans mammal is very rodent-like and shrew-like in size, appearance, and build. The Saint Bathan mammal is an insectivore and has sharp teeth used to snatching snails, beetles, other small invertebrates. The Saint Bathans mammal has a semi-sprawling stance, more abducted than in therian mammals, but nowhere near as much as in monotremes. The conservation status of the Saint Bathans mammal is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the Saint Bathans mammal's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
