***Therizinosaurus*** is a herbivorous theropod dinosaur from the late Campanian-early Maastrichian stages of the Late Cretaceous.

*Therizinosaurus* was added to The Isle in Patch 0.0.0.19.

## In Real Life

*Therizinosaurus* is the largest member of the Therizinosauridae family, and was primarily an herbivore. It was 4.5 meters (15 feet) tall and 10 meters (33 feet) long, and probably weighed around 5,000 kg (11,000 lbs).

It likely used its meter (3.3 foot) long claws for multiple uses; gathering food, intimidating and attacking predators were all likely purposes of the enormous claws. It is from these claws which the specific name arises; they were initially mistaken for the claws of an enormous turtle-like diving reptile.

## In The Isle

Its claw attacks can deal massive amounts of damage and it can run very quickly. It has relatively low health and can be killed by a *Tyrannosaurus* in three bites, so it is best to avoid them along with other apex predators (unless you are an experienced player).

When in combat, it is best when directly facing your opponent. The tail is the most vulnerable spot, so players should make sure that predators don't get to it. The best way for it to avoid trouble is to be intimidating, threatening to attack and displaying aggressive behaviour if carnivores get close. Unfortunately, this doesn't always work since some predators are not easily intimidated by the screeching, although due to the damage a Therizinosaurus can do, it might lower their chances of attacking.

Most animals will not want to come close to as Therizinosaurrus are extremely fast and do a lot of damage. The only dinosaurs that will try to hunt are mostly apexes. When fighting apexes it is advised to get behind them (without getting hit) and tail-ride them. Although if players do not want direct confrontation or engage in combat with an apex, the option to run away is suitably advised as Therizinosaurus can outrun all apexes. Before attempting to fight Apexes in survival mode, players best practice in sandbox mode.

It is currently playable in Sandbox mode, but can be nested in the Survival mode.

## General Information

### Pros:

* **Highest base damage** of any herbivore.
* Best stamina of all apexes.
* Health and weight is above average.
* **Very fast.**
* Can be very intimidating
* Can hit when it starts to stand up.
* 3rd fastest trot. (after Herrerasaurus and Acrocanthosaurus).
* Therizinosaurus can kill almost all dinosaurs with relative ease.
* Each hit has a 3 or 4 times damage multiplier. If 1 hit is 350 damage, the damage it will deal to the opponent is 3 or 4 times more than 350.

### Cons:

* No bleed damage
* Very low bleed heal rate.
* Low bleed resistance
* Makes loud obnoxious noises
* Cannot sniff (Sandbox dinosaur)
* It has quite low health and weight for an apex.
* It can break bones very easily, which makes it vulnerable to falling from rocks and cliffs.
* Big tail makes it easy to tail ride, allowing even small dinosaurs such as Utahraptor or Dilophosaurus to kill it if not careful.

## Behind The Scenes

The *Therizinosaurus* was modeled by Vlad Konstantinov for the now-dead game *The Stomping Land* in the year 2014. It was then bought by Dondi for The Isle.

### Upcoming:

Following a new stage of development, the first dinosaur to be reworked with a "concept stage" was the *Therizinosaurus,* and its now has a concept for its new model, with has been released by Jake Baardse. It is unknown when it will be coming to the game.

Because the *Therizinosaurus* used a model for *The Stomping Land,* Dondi felt that it should be remade in order to make it unique to The Isle, similar to what happened to the *Tyrannosaurus* getting its remodel. The *Herrerasaurus* is getting a remodel as well, meaning the *Quetzalcoatlus* would be next on the list.
