**Procerapoda**

**Procerapoda** (lit. "Extended Feet") is a clade of Titanopoda.

## Description

Procerapoda first emerged around 4241ma, when it diverged from its sister clade, Baropoda. At approximately 4 meters in height, Procerapods are the largest terrestrial animal yet observed, living along the forests surrounding rivers in the steppe. Their feeding habits are largely similar to that of earlier Megalobrachids, although their greater size offers them an advantage.

Procerapods are strictly browsers, feeding on Xylophyta leaves. Due to their immense size, they are unrivaled as browsers. Their main predators are Onychodonts.
