Bright Moon Island

**Bright Moon Island** is an isolated and peaceful small island with a population of about 1,000 that lives in a tightly-knit community.

## Description

To most visitors, Moon Island appears to be a small island within a rocky ravine due to a magical barrier that encompasses the land. The main town is located in the south, with some rural settlements scattered along the island. To the east and northwest there are fields that provide food for its little more than a thousand inhabitants. The rest of the island is occupied by subtropical forests. To the northwest of the island there is another one of smaller size.

## Characteristics

### Environment

Estuarine, Forest, Floodplain, Swamp

***“ In the forests of North America, there is an additional annual hazard for forest-dwellers. Fire, started by a strike of lightning. As it spreads, temperatures rise to over 2000 degrees Fahrenheit. The flames rise several hundred feet into the air. ”***

― **David Attenborough**, *Forests*
The ***Horseshoe Canyon Formation*** is a stratigraphic unit of the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin in southwestern Alberta. It takes its name from Horseshoe Canyon, an area of badlands near Drumheller.

## Description

The Horseshoe Canyon Formation is a region of various environments that range from the Late Campanian to the Early Maastrichtian stage of the Late Cretaceous Period, with evidence indicating the existence of coal swamps, estuaries, and floodplains periodically covered up by the sea.

***“ This may look catastrophic. But remarkably, some plants must be burned if they are to complete their life cycle. The intense heat is needed to open the cones of the pine trees, and release their seeds. And only a few hours after the fire has passed, animals begin to return. Beetles are among the first. They start to lay their eggs. When they hatch, the larvae will be the first to feast on the near-limitless supply of dead wood. ”***

― **David Attenborough**, *Forests*
Prehistoric Planet depicts one area within it as an upland forest at constant risk of forest fires, hence, some of the native plants evolved specifically to exploit these constant events and complete their life cycle, and some of the animals even take advantage of the resources offered by recently-burned forests.

Main **Segments**

MainSegments

These are Prehistoric Planet segments which feature ***Austroposeidon***.

## Freshwater

In the sixth and final segment of Freshwater, as elasmosaurs travel down a river in South America, hunting for fish, they are noticed by an *Austroposeidon*, which stops drinking from the river to curiously watch them pass it by.

## Forests

In the first segment of Forests, a herd of *Austroposeidon* journey through a forest, snipping the young leaves from the tips of the branches within reach. For those that come across trees too tall for their necks to feed on, they simply push the trees over with their tall shoulders and thick chests to bring their desired food down to their level.

***“ Success. But life in the forest is always a battle, especially when new space is created. Plants race to claim the light, and use every kind of method to gain the upper hand. The gap in the canopy is soon closed. ”***

― **David Attenborough**, *Forests*
Though the feeding habits of the sauropods open up huge open areas in the forest canopy, plants competing to take advantage of the sunlight quickly rise, with some wrapping around their neighbors like parasitic vines, and others growing spines to get rid of plants using such methods and even shred through the competition. Eventually, the gaps formed by the *Austroposeidon* herd is quickly closed up.

Neztim the Owl (Prime Disciple)

Neztim the Owl is a Prime Disciple in the pantheon of the Thirteen, an owl and servant of Haraad. Its name is also associated with the astrological sign **Neztim**.

## History

Haraad famously despised the mortal races of Loom, and as an act of spite nominated a simple owl as her Prime Disciple. Its constellation is seemingly a random cluster of stars, but looks like a barn owl's face when rendered properly.

## Astrology

Neztims ("owls" in Celestial) are oft-maligned as loners, but are equally often admitted to being capable of great wisdom and determination.

Stick City

Stick City is a city in Red County, Montana, United States. The population was around 201,398 in 2022.

## History

### 1880s-1909

Stick City started as an unincorporated logging town just south of Fort Peck Lake. It began to grow as the economy was very unregulated. The city also had a notoriously dangerous coal mine where at least one person died each day. In 1892, the city was officially founded as Stick City. The City grew and the population reached over one thousand. The city's economics crashed after Theodore Roosevelt started creating many anti-trust policies, due to these destroying the flowering "Stick Logging Co.". The city began to create more diverse options of work, and thus became a common destination for those seeking work.

### 1910-1945

The city experienced a boom in industry around the time the United States entered WW1. This boom continued until the Great Depression struck, in which the city became excessively poor due to its over-reliance on large businesses. The city restarted when the US entered WW2.

### 1946-1979

The city's industrial name and population continued to grow until 1961, when workers suddenly stopped coming to the city. They expended most natural resources around the county and had to focus more on tourism. They began to create many monuments themed after their industrial past to try and attract tourists. These efforts proved a modest success, but the city plunged further and further towards bankruptcy.

### 1980-2018

A young politician named Tom Xikid started a campaign claiming he would fix the city's economic troubles. Xikid was voted into office in 1980 and started handing out money to the richest in the city. He believed it would eventually reach the city's poorest, and through this, he became close friends with Russian entrepreneur Boris Redshletsky. Boris opened the notorious Stick City Nuclear Plant in early 1981, and began providing "clean" energy for the city, while Tom gave him many tax cuts behind the scenes. Tom's policies were notorious for not benefitting the people at all.
Earth-2016

An reality born out of the "deaths" of realities annihilated by Ragnarok. As energy cannot be created or destroyed, the energies from those realities converted into **Earth-2016**, an assimilation, an "mishmash" of alternate universes, in an event known as an "convergence". In this reality an "iteration" of Captain America led an assault on Castle Zemo to retrieve the Darkhold from the Bastion. It was nicknamed the "**Conglomerate Earth**" and "**Patchwork Earth**" by the Time Variance Authority. Several variants of this reality are genderbent, such as Mila Morales, the Earth-2016 equivalent to Miles Morales.

Javelina Formation

Javelina Formation as it appears in the first segment of North America

***“ The coast of the vast, inland sea that almost splits North America in half. Here in the south, as the tide falls, giants are drawn to the shoreline. ”***

― **David Attenborough**, *North America*
The ***Javelina Formation*** is a geological formation in Texas that is approximately 70 - 66 million years old.

## Description

The Javelina Formation is believed to be a land of semi-arid inland plains dominated by *Alamosaurus* and *Quetzalcoatlus*, though the region is also known to harbor woodland environments (low-density forests) composed of woody dicotyledon trees and angiosperms (flowering plants). It also serves as part of the southern extent of the range of *Tyrannosaurus rex*, which descended from *Tyrannosaurus mcraeensis*, an older species that roamed southern USA approximately 3 - 5 million years before *T. rex* first appeared (it should be noted, however, that the validity of *T. mcraeensis* is still a subject of debate). While all three animals likely coexisted in other areas, the Javelina Formation is the only area so far to actually contain fossil evidence of *Alamosaurus*, *Quetzalcoatlus*, and *T. rex*. The Javelina Formation is also home to chasmosaurine ceratopsids (e.g. *Bravoceratops* and *Torosaurus utahensis*), saurolophine hadrosaurs (e.g. *Gryposaurus*, *Kritosaurus*, and an indeterminate saurolophine similar to *Saurolophus*), *Saurornitholestes*, an indeterminate troodontid (considered a species of the now-dubious wastebasket taxon *Troodon*), and two azhdarchid pterosaurs half the size of *Quetzalcoatlus northropi*, *Quetzalcoatlus lawsoni* and *Wellnhopterus*, which was previously classified as a thalassodromine tapejarid (or thalassodromine azhdarchoid).

Just as how the Hell Creek Formation is linked with the Lance and Scollard Formations, the Javelina Formation appears to be linked with the Ojo Alamo Formation, which is found in the San Juan Basin of New Mexico.

## Appearance

The Javelina Formation serves as the setting of the first segment of North America.

## Fauna

Louie Slynx

**Louie Slynx** is a character in the web-series *Rocky and Ricky*. He is the father of Lucy.

## Personality

The Slynx family is an affluent one, and no better can this be observed than in Louie, the current holder of its fortune. Having gone to *the* most prestigious law school, he has a ~90% rate of managing to get his clients off scot-free (can't win 'em all), often butting heads with fellow lawyer Cliff Kackle. His successes have given plenty of cash to splash, and you'll often see him pull up to mundane locations in the fanciest of cars. Still, he doesn't let it get to his head, and is willing to support anyone his family considers trustworthy... unless he believes that they're after his money...

## Trivia

### Name origin

*Slynx* contains the word "lynx", the name of another feline species.
Hațeg Island Titanosaur

Redirect to:

* Other Fauna/Minor#Hațeg Island Titanosaur

## Hațeg Island TitanosaurIndeterminate Species

Present on Prehistoric Planet is an **unnamed titanosaur** that lived on Hațeg Island, an area which would eventually become a basin within modern-day Romania, 66 million years ago, during the Maastrichtian stage of the Late Cretaceous Period.

According to Dr. Darren Naish, lead consultant of Prehistoric Planet, it is possible that these titanosaurs are either *Paludititan* (Marsh Titan) or a sauropod that was previously classified as *Magyarosaurus* (Magyar Lizard), but is now considered as a distinct animal.

## Description

On Prehistoric Planet, this sauropod is depicted with a light gray coat speckled with dark gray accents.

## Habitat

*Main: Hațeg Island*

Main: Hațeg Island

Around 66 million years ago, most of Europe was a series of islands scattered across the prehistoric Tethys Ocean. Hațeg Island, which would one day become a town in Hunedoara County, Romania, was 200 kilometers (120 miles) from the nearest landmass, and is estimated to be 80,000 square kilometers (31,000 square miles) worth of tropical woodland, sustained by braided rivers, lakes, and seasonal monsoons.

Due to limited resources on the island, most of the inhabitants, among them, these sauropods, grew smaller due to an evolutionary process known as insular dwarfism.

## Behavior

As shown on Prehistoric Planet, these unidentified titanosaurs appear to be very social species, greeting each other with affectionate nuzzles.

## Appearance

***“ Many of the forest's permanent residents regularly come down here, because the plants are coated with sea spray, and are a welcome source of salt. Here, sauropods can meet one another, renewing family bonds, and creating new ones. But for Hatzegopteryx, the beach is a launching pad. Now, his wings will carry him to yet another forest where life proliferates more variously and more abundantly than anywhere else on our Prehistoric Planet. ”***

― **David Attenborough**, *Forests*
In the seventh, final segment of Forests, on a beach on the southernmost edge of Europe, some *Zalmoxes* are seen amongst the vegetation, looking around as *Telmatosauruses* feed on the salted vegetation, with one even licking a propped-up piece of wood on the beach. Two titanosaurs make their way down to the beach, affectionately rubbing their heads and necks against one another. And as the sun sets, a *Hatzegopteryx* spreads his wings and leaves the island, flying off into the horizon.

## References

Jawge G. Jaws

**Jawge Gillbert Jaws** is a character in the web-series *Rocky and Ricky*. He is a cafeteria worker for Critterwood Junior High.

## Personality

He may be surly and world-weary, but Jawge is pretty young - having attended Critterwood Junior High not that long before the students he serves. He knows all about what makes up the food that he dumps onto plates on a near-daily basis. Luckily for him, he's not involved in the preparation of said food - he's just the face that students associate with hot meals every lunchtime. Between his grouchy attitude, unhygienic behaviour, and the fact that what he dishes out isn't very appetising, it's easy to see why most people just bring packed lunches instead.

## Trivia

### Name origin

*Jawge* is a portmanteau of the regular name "George" and "jaws", the latter of which became more associated with sharks following the movie Jaws. *Gillbert* is a similar change to the name "Gilbert", adding the word "gill".

Flying reptiles, pterosaurs. Here, on the beaches of North Africa, there are seven different species of them. They come here to feed, to rest, and to raise their young. ”***

― **David Attenborough**, *Coasts*
The **Ouled Abdoun Basin** (also known as the **Khouribga Basin**) is a phosphate sedimentary basin located in Morocco, near the city of Khouribga.

## Description

West of the Atlas Mountains, the Ouled Abdoun Phosphatic Basin contains abundant marine life, like fish, turtles, crocodilians, plesiosaurs, and mosasaurs like the 10-meter (33-foot) *Thalassotitan*, a relative of *Prognathodon*. On its shores, seabirds like *Dasornis* and *Lithoptila* coexisted with at least seven different species of pterosaurs (among them *Alcione*, *Barbaridactylus*, *Phosphatodraco*, and *Tethydraco*), showing that, up to the end of the Cretaceous Period, the pterosaurs were successful, diverse, and not suppressed by the avian dinosaurs (birds).

Non-avian dinosaurs are also present in this area, among them indeterminate titanosaurs, the diminutive lambeosaurine *Ajnabia*, and *Chenanisaurus*, a robust abelisaurid that rivaled *Carnotaurus* in size, serving as the area's apex predator.

***“ Over millions of years, water has carved some deserts into spectacular landscapes, as here, in North Africa, these canyon lands offer some desert visitors special opportunities. ”***

― **David Attenborough**, *Deserts*
While mostly interpreted as a coastal and marine environment, it is possible that the area was more arid further inland, justifying the show's depiction of a dry area with the occasional flat-topped plateaus in the fifth segment of Deserts.

Appears to have preferred warm environments

**Enantiornitheans** are avian dinosaurs (birds) that appeared in several episodes of Prehistoric Planet.

On the show, they are referred to as "enantiornithines", though the better term would be "enantiornitheans", since "enantiornithines" only refers to the members of the enantiornithinae subfamily, and not the whole enantiornithes clade. However, Prehistoric Planet's birds might be intended to be members of the enantiornithinae subfamily, hence, the term used may not be necessarily or technically incorrect.

## Description

Almost all enantiornitheans have clawed fingers (much like modern-day hoatzins), and surprisingly, teeth, serving as proof of their dinosaur ancestry. Enantiornitheans got their name, "opposite birds", because their scapula (shoulder blade) is concave, and their coracoid (a bone present in all vertebrates except therian mammals, connecting the scapula to the sternum) is convex, the reverse being true for modern birds (scapula is convex, coracoid is concave).

Even so, Prehistoric Planet does not call any special attention to these birds, which barely serve any significant role in the series. Along with the non-avian dinosaurs and the specialized aquatic hesperornithean birds, enantiornitheans went extinct by the end of the Cretaceous Period.

## Appearances

Enantiornitheans make sporadic appearances throughout Prehistoric Planet, in Deserts, Freshwater, Forests, and North America, and only seem to be present as a means of providing scale, as well as serving the role of random wildlife that gets easily spooked away by larger animals, like when a *Mononykus* runs at a group of them during the third segment of Deserts, or when a *Deinocheirus* scratches himself against a dead tree in the third segment of Freshwater, scaring off the bird perched on one of the tree's branches.

His status as the resident grouch of Critterwood's High Street has lead to many a prank being pulled on him, which has done nothing but contributed to his deepening feelings of ennui. No one has bothered to ask him why he's still keeping his shop up even though he hates the job, but it's most likely that he can't afford to abandon it. Is there any way his passion for his craft can be reignited?

***“ The island of Madagascar has been separated from the African mainland for 80 million years, so long that most of its animals are now very different from any to be found elsewhere. ”***

― **David Attenborough**, *Islands*
The **Maevarano Formation** is a Late Cretaceous sedimentary rock formation found in the Mahajanga Province of northwestern Madagascar.

## Description

The Maevarano Formation is recognized as an alluvial plain where the discharge of rivers fluctuate. The area is also believed to have had reddish soil, with floodplains that supported vegetation able to grow in the relatively dry climate. The region, at times semi-arid (like it is today), at times undergoing strong dry and wet seasons, was eventually claimed by rising sea levels that pushed the shoreline back. This may or may not have been the result of the Cretaceous-Paleogene Extinction Event, a catastrophe that wiped out three-quarters of life on Earth.

― **David Attenborough**, *Forests*
The **Nanxiong Formation** (also known as **Yuanpu Formation**) is a formation located in the Guangdong Province of southern China that is approximately 67 - 66 million years old.

## Description

Very little is known about the Nanxiong Formation, with there being almost no data regarding the plant life of Late Cretaceous China, though Prehistoric Planet manages to show off a proper depiction in the form of temperate, deciduous mountain forests.

***“ As the seasonal winds strengthen, many of the trees in these temperate forests start to lose their leaves. Winter will be a time of hardship. Nevertheless, a storm does create a brief opportunity for hunters. ”***

― **David Attenborough**, *Forests*
Oviraptorids are mostly found in arid environments, and are thus believed to have fed mostly on xerophytic (drought-resistant) plants. Given how there are seven species present in the Nanxiong Formation (including *Corythoraptor*), it is possible that, despite the presence of forests, the region was still very much an arid or semi-arid one. Even so, the place can still be subject to harsh winters, which could justify why, just as depicted on Prehistoric Planet, some dinosaurs in the area may have retained a coat of feathers to some extent in order to fend off the cold.

## Appearance

The Nanxiong Formation serves as the setting of the fifth segment of Forests, focusing on a *Qianzhousaurus* trying to hunt *Corythoraptors* during autumn, just before winter sets in.

Serena is quite the character. She initially came to the museum as work experience in her final years of high school, but she had enough enthusiasm and know-how that the staff employed her full-time. Serena has demonstrated that her knowledge of the subjects at the museum exceeds even the little descriptions next to them, and enjoys sharing her trivia with engaged students. To any students willing to show up regularly to the museum, Serena usually befriends them and gives them their own special sticker that allows them to check out any book from the museum's library at any point.

Damien Chunaw

**Damien Chunaw** is a character in the web-series *Rocky and Ricky*. He is one of Rocky and Ricky's classmates.

## Personality

You want to talk architecture? Give Damien a call. His entire family’s been in the industry and he hopes to someday enter it too. He’s drawn out plans for entire blocks of flats and a sports arena - yeah, he’s *that* into it. Besides that, he’s also one of the editors of the school newspaper and is on the school swim team. It’s a lot of hard work, but he seems to get by just fine with it somehow. A couple of people have asked just how he manages to keep up with it all, but he’ll usually just respond with a pun. Oh, that’s right - he’s got a knack for puns, too.

## Trivia

### Name origin

*Chunaw* is a slightly modified portmanteau of the words "chew" and "gnaw". Damien was chosen as his first name because it has the word "dam" in it.
Peter Parker/Earth-1997

## Spider-Man

Spider-Man travelling between realities

**Peter Benjamin** "**Pete**" **Parker** was bitten by an irradiated arachnid when he was fifteen years old bestowing him with extraordinary powers he used to fight crime as the amazing **Spider-Man**.

In the near future, following the utter annihilation of his reality, Peter, satisfied that his friends and family had been reincarnated on Earth-2016 told his sister's doppelganger that he was happy she was "okay" to which she responded confused, not recognizing him as her Peter Parker equivalent. Saddened by this revelation, but content that the world had who he deemed to be an "superior Spider-Man", Peter left Earth-2016 to travel the multiverse as a nomadic Cosmic Spider-Man, a fate foreshadowed by the Doctor Strange of Earth-6366. As a traveller between worlds and the sole survivor of Earth-1997, Pete was pursued by the Time Variance Authority who considered him too dangerous to be left alive - as explained by minuteman, Stephen Ditkovich, the energies of Peter and other "stragglers" who likewise survived the destruction of their realities and fled into the multiverse were not assimilated into the creation of Earth-2016, nothing that "makes them them" made it into that reality effectively making them "ghosts" and as Ditkovich says, "ghosts are dangerous". Furthermore, Ditkovich calls Peter an "fascinating anomaly" as he is the last source of pure, unfiltered Earth-1997 left in the multiverse. Ditkovich gives Peter a "head's start", sympathizing with what he had been through. Ultimately though, Peter, along with the stragglers, were able to extrapolate the energies of their universes from themselves and recreate them from scratch. With Earth-1997 restored to just moments before its destruction, Peter returned to his sister and Miles and was pardoned by the TVA.

## Powers and Abilities

* **Stunted aging** - Courtesy of his regenerative abilities, Peter ages much slower than the average person. He spent forty plus years travelling the multiverse before being able to restore his own universe and aged very little during that time period. Despite this, the stresses he has been through has put a visible strain on his age, healing factor or not.

## Relationships

### Allies

* Debra Whitman - Former Love Interest, Friend
* Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch - Fellow Superhero, Former Love Interest, Friend

## Trivia

* Peter is Jewish and is of Hispanic descent.
* According to the TVA, this iteration of Spider-Man is among the strongest Spider-Men in the multiverse.

## Behind the Scenes

* This iteration of Peter Parker/Spider-Man is portrayed by Freddie Prinze Jr., which is alluded to when the Spider-Man of Earth-2000 mentions that he resembles "the guy from *I Know What You Did Last Summer*", as well as nicknaming him "Ascot and "Hanker tie", references to the 2002 *Scooby-Doo* film.
Billy Vulder

**Billy Vulder** is a character in the web-series *Rocky and Ricky*. He is one of Bimmy's brothers.

## Personality

Billy is a fairly middle-of-the-road teenager grade-wise, but give him a pair of hiking boots and a map to fill in and he'll be off faster than you can say "wilderness". Ever since he was a kid he's always had a fascination with the unknown, and is an expert on alleged cryptids and unearthly beasts. The existence of a fifteen-foot tall, rake-thin shadow creature that feeds on animal fur? Yep, Billy was the one who started that rumour, and it's still in circulation to this day. While he doesn't have many friends, the ones he has made have gone on record to say he's pretty cool guy to hang out with.

## Trivia

### Name origin

*Vulder* stems from the Latin word for fox, *vulpes*.
Kelly Wallis

**Kelly Wallis** is a character in the web-series *Rocky and Ricky*. She is one of Rocky and Ricky's classmates.

## Personality

You can tell Kelly’s in the general vicinity of anywhere because whenever she’s around, the smell of fresh sea salt permeates the air. This girl was made for the water - literally, because she partly lives in it - and thus she always signs up for any water-based activity that she can. Outside of that, she’s actually got a knack for geography and usually gets high marks in any test involving it. Part of this is because she has family all over the world, and they usually make long ocean trips back and forth to see each other. (The other part is because she gets to learn more about how water works).

## Trivia

### Name origin

*Wallis* stems from "Wal", the German word for "whale".
Bernard Vulder

**Bernard Vulder** is a character in the web-series *Rocky and Ricky*. He is the father to Bimmy, Billy and Benny.

## Personality

A single father of three, Bernard believes that to stay on top in society, you gotta be "on that grind". His job may be looked down upon by others, but he's getting good money for it, so he's not fussed by all that. In fact, he actually quite enjoys the life he leads. Befitting his muscular build, he's also a fitness nut, and is proficient in wrestling, MMA, judo, karate, and, strangely enough, archery. Although his wife doesn't want anything to do with him any more, he still treasures his children immensely, as they remind him of her.

## Trivia

### Name origin

*Vulder* stems from the Latin word for fox, *vulpes*. *Bernard* derives from "renard", the French word for fox.
Ray Racklock

**Ray Racklock** is a character in the web-series *Rocky and Ricky*. He is the father to Rocky and Ruby.

## Personality

An easy-going guy, Ray is content with his place in the world as a husband to a loving wife and father to two beautiful children. He works as a mechanic down at the Savannah Garage along with his colleagues, and is an avid baseball fan. He is, however, also a tad naïve, and will often stumble blindly into the punchline of a joke or not understand sarcasm. Not that this has impeded him one bit, though - he's trying to find ways to improve his humour, and although the only material he has so far is "dad jokes", it's progress, and hey, that's always good, right?

## Trivia

### Name origin

Racklock derives from *raichleach*, an Irish word for "cat".

Nemegt Forest Titanosaur

Redirect to:

* Other Fauna/Minor#Nemegt Forest Titanosaur

## Nemegt Forest TitanosaurIndeterminate Species

***“ Here in central Asia, the nighttime forest is filled with strange sounds. Giant sauropods are asleep. There are air sacs in their head and neck, which reduce their weight, but also amplify their snores. But not everyone is asleep. For smaller creatures, it's safer to be out in the darkness than during the day. ”***

― **David Attenborough**, *Forests*
Present on Prehistoric Planet is an **unnamed titanosaur** that lived in the Nemegt Formation, Mongolia, 70 million years ago, during the Maastrichtian stage of the Late Cretaceous Period.

## Description

The animal appears to use the exact same model as *Austroposeidon*. Given that Prehistoric Planet featured both *Nemegtosaurus* and an unidentified sauropod based on massive footprints found in Mongolia, it is likely that the sauropod depicted here is *Opisthocoelicaudia*, the only other titanosaur known from the Nemegt Formation, a specimen known from a well-preserved skeleton missing its neck and head (the opposite of *Nemegtosaurus*, which is only known from the head, leading to a theory that both animals are actually the body parts of a single species rather than two separate sauropods). It could also possibly be another unidentified sauropod species, since the Nemegt Formation is known for several indeterminate sauropod tracks and fragmentary remains, among them, four-toed footprints attributed to *Opisthocoelicaudia*.

## Habitat

*Main: Nemegt Formation*

Main: Nemegt Formation

This unidentified titanosaur lived 70 million years ago in the Nemegt Formation, an area that would one day become the Gobi Desert in Mongolia. The formation shows evidence of a rich, humid environment with large river channels, tidal flats, and forests. On the show, this sauropod is shown wading through a swampy area, a river that overflowed its banks due to heavy rains, dredging up water plants from the bottom of the river.

## Behavior

It is not yet known whether it is a social or solitary animal. However, it is plausible that he was an individual who chose a shelter of his own to sleep peacefully and not to disturb the peace of his pack.

## Appearance

In the sixth and penultimate segment of Forests, this titanosaur is shown asleep, the snores of the giant filling the forest as three juvenile *Therizinosaurus* wander around looking for food.

Due to their brief and unremarkably inactive moment on Prehistoric Planet, the Nemegt Forest Titanosaur is the only sauropod that didn't appear in the Uncovered segment "How Did Dinosaurs Get So Big?"

Riley Caleu

**Riley Pamela Caleu** is a main character in the web-series *Rocky and Ricky*. She is part of Rocky and Ricky's friend circle.

## Personality

Riley may dress casually and hit up the mall like most kids her age, but she’s one of the smartest in her grade. Her main passion is science, and one of her life goals is to someday discover a new element that she can name. Believe it or not, she forages for all her own food, and has come up with new ways to prepare them, so she’s also well-versed in food science. Befitting her scientific, curious nature, she never goes anywhere without a pair of lab goggles in her pocket “just in case”. Many have derided her as sort of weird, but there are a certain few who understand her for who she truly is.

## Trivia

### Name origin

*Caleu* comes from the name of the eucalyptus tree, a somewhat toxic plant that koala bears and other marsupial herbivores are able to eat with relative ease.
Wendy Epping

**Wendy Epping** is a character in the web-series *Rocky and Ricky*. She is part of Ruby's circle of friends.

## Personality

Compared to the rest of her classmates, Wendy stands out as rather large for her age. Part of this is due to the fact that she has an eating disorder, which she's trying to combat the best she can by putting her height to good use and playing in the basketball team. One of her main goals is to prove to everyone that appearances aren't everything, and that despite her imposing figure, she's gentle and sweet as best she can. Just don't try to talk to her while she's in "the zone" playing sports - you might be met with a rather determined glare.

## Trivia

### Name origin

*Epping* comes from the Epping Forest National Park, the sole remaining natural habitat of the Northern hairy-nosed wombat.
Callum Suri

**Callum Suri** is a character in the web-series *Rocky and Ricky*. He is one of Rocky and Ricky's classmates.

## Personality

If there’s a maths problem to be solved, you can always rely on Callum to help you out. He’s taken up a job as a tutor for other students who are struggling, even though he occasionally gets bullied over this fact. He’s also a whiz at computer science and has coded several games from nearly scratch, in a variety of coding languages. His favourite video game series is Underrune - which is hardly surprising, given his secret: he actually helped with the code on the 57th entry of the series and chose to remain uncredited just so he could have some sense of superiority over his peers.

## Trivia

### Name origin

*Suri* is a corruption of "souris", the French word for "mouse".
Tyrone Aspus

**Tyrone Aspus** is a character in the web-series *Rocky and Ricky*. He is one of Rocky and Ricky's classmates.

## Personality

Tyrone likes to think of himself as “cool”, and indeed, this is reflected in the way he dresses and in his attitude. He’s actually pretty popular around Critterwood Junior High, but he doesn’t let the fame get to his head. He’s actually a pretty nice guy if you get to know him. He has a talent for art, which is rather unusual considering he has no appendages to use any form of pencil, pen, paintbrush, what have you - but somehow he still manages to produce some of the best artwork in the school. He takes commissions, but he never shows anyone how he actually pulls off the stuff he makes. He’s an outgoing guy, but he’s also somewhat of an enigma - something he prides himself on being.

## Trivia

### Name origin

*Aspus* contains the word "asp", a type of venomous snake.
Charlotte Dotip

**Charlotte Dotip** is a character in the web-series *Rocky and Ricky*. She is part of Ruby's circle of friends.

## Personality

Having known each other since childhood, Charlotte and Ruby are practically two peas in a pod. The two know each other inside out, helped by their mutual interests in music and fashion. Where Charlotte differs, however, is that she's slightly more savvy about the high school system in contrast to Ruby's relative naïveté, but she'll still be more than willing to help out a friend in need. As is to be expected of her species, she's no stranger to the sports field; she's part of the track team, and also serves as part of the cheer squad alongside her friends. Anything to support a fellow critter!

## Trivia

### Name origin

*Dotip* contains the word "dot" in it, which are prominent on cheetahs.
