Rugops

***Rugops africanus*** is a species of non-avian abelisaurid theropod dinosaur that originally inhabited what is now Africa approximately 95 million years ago, during the Cenomanian stage of the Late Cretaceous as an extinct species, *Rugops primus*, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and, unlike most large carnivorous non-avian theropods, have been intentionally introduced throughout the modern wetlands, open woodlands, grasslands, shrublands, scrublands, and oasises across Africa to help boost biodiversity. *Rugops africanus* is a rather small abelisaurid, growing to be about 14.4 feet (4.4 meters) in length and weighing around 390 kilograms (859.9 lbs). Like other abelisaurids, *Rugops africanus* has very short, vestigial arms. These are useless in fighting, and are only used to counterbalance the dinosaur's head. *Rugops africanus* is primarily a scavenger that feeds on carrion of other animals, including fish, but can occasionally make its own kills, although it is not adapted to prey on many land animals. Unlike most abelisaurs, *Rugops africanus* has primitive forms of feathering on top of its head and neck. It is somewhat doubtful that the extinct abelisaurs of any genuses had feathers, due to some genuses like *Carnotaurus* (including the living and extinct species) being entirely featherless, however, it is possible that not all abelisaurs were featherless and several extinct genuses of abelisaurids may have had feathers, so the living *Rugops africanus* may not be inaccurate. *Rugops africanus* is a solitary animal throughout most of its life except during the breeding seasons. A healthy *Rugops africanus* does not have much natural predators besides crocodiles, however, the young, old, ill, and injured *Rugops africanus* may fall prey for lions, hyenas, and other predators. The reproductive lifestyle and lifecycle of *Rugops africanus* resembles a cross between those of an ostrich and a crocodilian. The conservation status of *Rugops africanus* is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the animal's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities, allowing it to adapt to life in some of the cities and suburbs.
Sarcoramphus kernense

The **North American king vulture** (*Sarcoramphus kernense*), also known as the **northern king vulture** and the **Kern vulture**, is a species of New World vulture of the *Cathartidae* family that originally lived in North America during the Pliocene and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced throughout the western and southwestern United States and Mexico to help boost biodiversity. The North American king vulture is slightly larger and more robust than the South American species. This species of vulture lives predominantly in temperate and subtropical forests, swamps, and open woodlands, although it is known to inhabit grasslands, shrublands, scrublands, and, unlike its South American relatives, deserts. Large and predominantly gray with some black patches, the North American king vulture has gray to black ruff, flight, and tail feathers. The head and neck are bald, with the skin color varying, including yellow, orange, blue, purple, and red. The North American king vulture has a very noticeable orange fleshy caruncle on its beak. This vulture is a scavenger and it often makes the initial cut into a fresh carcass. It also displaces smaller New World vulture species from a carcass. North American king vultures have been known to live for up to 30 years in captivity. The conservation status of the North American king vulture is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the North American king vulture's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
Proapteryx

The **short-billed kiwi** (*Proapteryx micromeros*) is a species of kiwi that originally lived from 16–19 million years ago during the early Miocene, as one of the St Bathans Fauna of Otago, New Zealand, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced throughout the modern rainforests, wetlands, forests, and open woodlands across New Zealand to help boost biodiversity. The short-billed kiwi is considerably smaller than other kiwis, weighing around 234.1–377 grams (the smallest native modern kiwi, *Apteryx owenii*, weighs at least 800 grams), and it has a more gracile otic process with an equally shorter bill, hence its name. It bears distinctively slender hindlimbs, more comparable in terms of proportion to flying birds like the banded rail than to other kiwis, despite being completely flightless, being a more primitive relative to other kiwis. The short-billed kiwi lacks specialisation for a terrestrial, flightless lifestyle of other kiwis. As such, it is a mollusc specialist, more akin to shorebirds in terms of diet than other kiwis, feeding primarily on snails, which compose about 79% of its diet, though it can also feed on crayfish and similar large crustaceans, bivalves, worms, insects, frogs (particularly tadpoles), and small caecillians. The conservation status of the short-billed kiwi is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts.
Regaliceratops

***Regaliceratops magnificens*** (meaning "magnificent royal horned face") is a species of herbivorous ceratopsid dinosaur that originally lived during the late Cretaceous period, about 68 million years ago in what is now Canada as an extinct species, *Regaliceratops peterhewsi*, and the genus *Regaliceratops* was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced throughout the modern swamps, forests, open woodlands, and some grasslands of North America to help boost biodiversity. It is a medium-sized ceratopsian, growing on average of about 5 meters (16’4") long and weighing around 2 tons. *Regaliceratops magnificens* is a herbivore that mainly feeds on leaves, fruits, needles, roots, tubers, some wood, and bulbs, although it can sometimes feed on carrion to supplement its diet. It is a solitary animal in most of its life except during breeding seasons, when males challenge other males to win a right to mate with females. The conservation status of the *Regaliceratops magnificens* is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts and its wide range across North America.
Screaming killer penguin

The **screaming killer penguin** (*Mortipinguis shinobi*), also known as the **screaming penguin of death** and the **screaming ninja penguin of death**, is a species of penguin that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the coastlines of New Zealand to help boost biodiversity. Generally hunting as mated pairs, these penguins will tackle prey up to the size of an adult leopard seal. They are resourceful animals and have also been seen scavenging and digging for mollusks. On rare occasions they will ambush and drag large terrestrial birds, including moas, to their deaths at the shoreline. They tackle large carcasses in a manner similar to a crocodile's "death-roll", latching on with their beak and rotating their entire bodies. Screaming killer penguins are monogamous breeders. The female has a small marspuial-like pouch near her hindlimbs where the single egg is incubated. During this time, she has to lie on her side or back to avoid crushing the egg. The hatchling is initially nourished on secretions within the pouch before being fed on regurgitated food brought back by both parents. The conservation status of the screaming killer penguin is **Near Threatened** due to some habitat loss and, historically, persecution from farmers, who thought that the screaming killer penguins were killing the sheep. However, thanks to conservationists, the screaming killer penguins are a protected species.
Shenzhoupterus

***Shenzhoupterus capillinigri*** is a species of chaoyangopterid azhdarchoid pterodactyloid pterosaur that originally lived from the Lower Cretaceous Jiufotang Formation of Liaoning, China, as an extinct species, *Shenzoupterus chaoyangensis*, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii. *Shenzhoupterus capillinigri* is a rather small black-colored pterosaur, with a wingspan of about 4.6 feet (1.4 meters) in length. It lacks teeth in its beak, and has a crest on its skull that arches over the eyes and terminates in a small point toward the back of the head. The head crest is covered with a keratinous surface in life, and consists of blue and orange band colors to help distinguished their own species from other species. The nasoantorbital fenestra (an opening incorporating the holes for the nostrils and the antorbital fenestrae) is large and extends over the eyes and braincase. It is a carnivore that stalks the ground for smaller animals as well as carrion. It is a solitary animal that lives in most of its life alone except during the breeding seasons. *Shenzhoupterus capillinigri* is found throughout North America and Asia, descended from the ones that escaped from the warehouse in New York City after the SciiFii Pterosaur Incident occurred in October 12, 2039, as a result of a group of unidentified criminals, probably either street gangs or terrorists, who released them after the failed attempt to steal them for possible use of war animals. *Shenzhoupterus capillinigri* is an adaptable animal, capable of thriving in hot and cold climates, humid and arid environments, and can flourish in a life in the cities and suburbs.
Protostega

The **giant sea turtle** (*Protostega magnus*, name meaning "first roof") is a species of sea turtle that originally lived in what is now Kansas during the Late Cretaceous as an extinct species, *Protostega gigas*, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced throughout the Pacific Ocean to help boost biodiversity. With a length of 3 metres (9.8 feet), the giant sea turtle is the second-largest sea turtle that has ever live, second only to the great sea turtle, and the third-largest turtle of all time behind the great sea turtle and the giant snapping turtle. The giant sea turtle is an omnivore and consumes primarily on a diet of hard shelled crustaceans, along with seaweed and jellyfish, and it also scavenges on floating carcasses, like other turtles. The giant sea turtle is able to produce powerful strokes necessary for open-ocean travel. Behavior-wise, it is very similar to the native modern sea turtles in locomotion, solitary lifestyle, and reproduction. The conservation status of the giant sea turtle is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts and the giant sea turtle's wide range.
Polar razorbill

The **polar razorbill** (*Alca arctos*), also known as the **Arctic razorbill** and the **white razorbill**, is a species of razorbill (*Alca*), most closely related to the Atlantic razorbill (*Alca torda*), that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the Arctic to help boost biodiversity. The polar razorbill is one of the largest members of the razorbill genus, growing to be about 49-51 centimeters (19-20 inches) and weighing between 890 and 960 grams (31 1⁄2 to 33 3/4 oz). Unlike most razorbills, the polar razorbill is predominantly white in color with slate-grey blotches and black wing tips. The male and female are identical in plumage; however, males are generally larger than females. This agile bird, which is capable of both flight and diving, has a predominantly aquatic lifestyle and only comes to land in order to breed. It is monogamous, choosing one partner for life. Females lay one egg per year. Razorbills nest along coastal cliffs in enclosed or slightly exposed crevices. The parents spend equal amounts of time incubating, and once the chick has hatched, they take turns foraging for their young. The conservation status of the polar razorbill is **Near Threatened** due to some habitat loss, however, thanks to the conservationists, the polar razorbill is a protected species.
Rhizodus

***Rhizodus megalus*** (name meaning "great root tooth") is a species of rhizodont, a branch of the Sarcopterygii, that originally lived during the Carboniferous in what now Ireland and Scotland as an extinct species, *Rhizodus hibberti*, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and now lives in **Cretaceous Park** located at Downey, California. The most notable characteristics of *Rhizodus megalus*, compared to other giant lobe-fins such as *Barameda*, are the two 22 centimetres (8.7 in) fangs located near the front of its jaws, followed by other teeth scaling downwards in size. *Rhizodus megalus* is a giant apex predator that resides in the freshwater lake and river systems in its exhibit at Cretaceous Park, feeding on small to medium-sized live prey animals, the bullfrogs and koi, using its teeth to kill prey and rip it into digestible sizes, rather than swallowing prey whole like other, smaller-toothed sarcopterygians. *Rhizodus megalus* has large, plate-like scales, similar to those found on arapaimas.
Rundihorn

The **rundihorn** (*Tetraceras africanus*) is a species of rhinoceros-like arsinothere-like gigantelope (*Gigantilopidae*) antelope that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced to the grasslands of African grasslands to help boost biodiversity. It has adopted a body size and a horn arrangement not unlike its relatives and is a grazing animal, a fact that is reflected by its broad snout and muzzle. Its alarming horn array is used for defense, although the animal has few enemies likely to risk a frontal attack. For the males, however, its secondary function, for sexual display, is more important. The conservation status of the rundihorn is **Vulnerable** due to some habitat loss and poaching, however, the conservationists have since protected rundihorns and their populations, thanks to being a protected species, are increasing.
Schizogalerix

The **vegetarian shrew** (*Schizogalerix anatolica*), also known as the **vegetarian gymnure**, is a species of mammal in the family Erinaceidae that originally lived during the Middle Miocene in what is now Eurasia and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced throughout the modern rainforests, swamps, forests, and open woodlands across Eurasia to help boost biodiversity. Unlike most of its relatives, the vegetarian shrew, as its name implies, is much more herbivorous than any other shrew or relatives, although it still occasionally feeds on insects and, even rarely, other tiny mammals. The vegetarian shrew is a solitary animal that spends throughout most of its entire life alone except during the breeding seasons. The vegetarian shrew is a fast and frequent breeder in a manner similar to black rats (*Rattus rattus*) and brown rats (*Rattus norvegicus*). The conservation status of the vegetarian shrew is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the vegetarian shrew's wide range and its tolerance to most of the human activities.
Shri

The **Ichabod's goblin** (*Shri ichabodii*), also known as the **Crane's goblin**, is a species of non-avian dromaeosaurid theropod dinosaur that originally lived in the Barun Goyot Formation in Khulsan, Mongolia, during the Late Cretaceous period as an extinct species, *Shri devi*, and the genus itself was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii. The Ichabod's goblin was originally planned to be featured in the now-scrapped **Cretaceous Park: China**, however, due to a shipment accident on February 29, 2049, which resulted in the death of an unidentified driver and 2 Ichabod's goblins, the 27 surviving Ichabod's goblins escaped into the Chinese wilderness and established breeding populations, which exploded to more than 500,000 individuals across China, Mongolia, and the Korean Peninsula ever since. The Ichabod's goblin is named after the fact that the original and extinct *Shri* species was found without a head preserved, and is named after Ichabod Crane, a fictional character haunted by a headless ghost. The Ichabod's goblin is a mid-sized dromaeosaurid, with adults measuring up to 2.07 meters (6 feet 9+1⁄2 inches) long, 0.5 meters (1 feet 7+1⁄2 inches) high at the hip, and weighing on average of up to 15 kilograms (33 lbs), although there are specimens that weigh heavier, and the largest specimen known weighed about 19.7 kilograms (43+1⁄2 lbs). The Ichabod's goblin has a coat of black feathers with white bands on its legs and tail, and dark red feathers on its wings as well a short feather crest. Like the closely related common goblin (*Velociraptor americanus*), the Ichabod's goblin has an elongated head with large eyes, which allows it to see well in the darkest of nights, and sharp teeth for ripping out chunks of flesh. The Ichabod's goblin is fully carnivorous and primarily feeds on insects, frogs, lizards, snakes, birds, small mammals, eggs, and carrion, although it can occasionally hunt live fish in shallow waters and, more rarely, hunt animals twice its size. The Ichabod's goblin is a rather solitary animal and prefers to live alone throughout most of its life except during the breeding seasons that takes place in mid-to-late winter. Like the common goblin, around 9-13 Ichabod's goblin eggs are laid in early spring and are cared for by their mothers until they hatch in early summer. The hatchlings are protected by their mothers for 4 months until they're almost fully grown and must fend for themselves, similarly to the common goblin of North America. Despite their carnivorous diet, the Ichabod's goblins are actually friendly towards sapient species, even willing to be petted by them and to play with them, in a manner similar to domestic cats and dogs, and are nonaggressive and nonpredatory towards the domestic animals. The conservation status of the Ichabod's goblin is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the Ichabod's goblin's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
Santanadactylus

***Santanadactylus americanum*** (name meaning "American Santana Formation finger") was a species of pterodactyloid pterosaur that originally lived from the Albian-age Romualdo Member of the Upper Cretaceous Santana Formation, of Barra do Jardim, Araripe Plateau, Ceará State, Brazil, as an extinct species, *Santanadactylus brasilensis*, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii. *Santanadactylus americanum* is a rather medium-sized pterosaur, having a wingspan that usually reaches around 13-15 feet (4-5 metres) on average. It is a carnivore that primarily feeds on fish, squid, crustaceans, and worms, although it is known to occasionally snack on man-made food with meat in the such as hot dogs and burgers, to name a few. It is usually a solitary animal, living most of its life alone, but if and when there's enough food, this species can congregate in large flocks. *Santanadactylus americanum* is found throughout North America, descended from the ones that escaped from the warehouse in New York City after the SciiFii Pterosaur Incident occurred in October 12, 2039, as a result of a group of unidentified criminals, probably either street gangs or terrorists, who released them after the failed attempt to steal them for possible use of war animals. *Santanadactylus americanum* is an adaptable animal, capable of thriving in hot and cold climates, humid and arid environments, and can flourish in a life in the cities and suburbs.
Shastasaurus

***Shastasaurus cetus*** (name meaning "Mt. Shasta lizard whale") is a species of ichthyosaur that originally lived in the United States, Canada, and China during the middle and late Triassic, as an extinct species of *Shastasaurus* and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and, unlike most Mesozoic-type marine reptiles, intentionally introduced throughout the modern world's oceans to help boost biodiversity. *Shastasaurus cetus* is one of the largest known marine reptiles, growing on average of around 69 feet (21 meters) in length and weighing nearly twice as much as an average-sized humpback whale. *Shastasaurus cetus* is highly specialized, and differs considerably from other ichthyosaurs, and is very slender in profile. Due to its unusually short, toothless snout (compared to the long, toothed, dolphin-like snouts of most ichthyosaurs), *Shastasaurus cetus* is not capable of hunting tough or thick prey items, so it feeds primarily on soft-bodied cephalopods, although it does not perform the suction-feeding ability due to its jaw design. Unlike most ichthyosaurs, *Shastasaurus cetus* lacks any dorsal fins of more advanced ichthyosaurs, and the upper fluke of the tail is also much less developed than flukes found in other species, so this makes it a rather slow-moving animal. It is a solitary animal that prefers to spend throughout most of its life alone except during the breeding seasons. The conservation status of *Shastasaurus cetus* is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the animal's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
Sandle

The **sandle** (*Fususaurus foderus*) is a species of unusual coelurosaur, similar to the golden mole, that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced to the modern African deserts and desert scrubs to help boost biodiversity. Small, non-avian coelurosaurs like sandles and wyrms have proved to be adaptable enough to develop forms that are uniquely suited to such an environment. The days are so hot and the nights so cold that any animal must spend much of its time protected from the extremes. The sandle does this by burrowing in the sand. Its streamlined spindle shape is ideal for a burrowing way of life, since sand grains slide past its smooth contours easily as it tunnels through the dunes, digging and pushing with its stumpy legs. The eyes and nostrils are high up on the head, enabling it to see about and breathe while the rest of the body is buried. Desert animals need to be very careful about water conservation. The sandle never drinks but obtains water from the moist flesh of the prey animals it eats. Its kidneys are very efficient, allowing almost all the moisture to be retained, and secreting any poisonous compounds in a saliva that helps to paralyze and subdue its prey. The conservation status of the sandle is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the sandle's wide range, and its tolerance to most of human activities, including being able to adapt to life in the cities and suburbs.
Sea monkey

**Not to be confused with the brine shrimp of the genus *Artemia*, which are known as sea-monkeys.**

   The **sea monkey** (*Aquapithecus marinus*) is a species of almost fully-aquatic New World monkey, most closely related to the capuchin monkeys, that originally did not existed, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the coastlines of Central America and South America to help boost biodiversity. The sea monkeys average in length of about 1.6 meters or 6 feet, they are close in size to an average human, and are covered in thick gray fur with darker, almost black coloration on top for countershading. Sea monkeys are shy omnivores that feed on kelp and shellfish. They are rarely sighted in busy waters and avoid places where they have had bad experiences. Like their terrestrial cousins, sea monkeys live in groups of a few dozen individuals. Males are usually larger than the females and it is their job to protect the troop from predators. Some sea monkeys go to the extreme of dragging victims to the depths of the water to drown them. Thanks to their streamlined body shape and strong seal-like flippers, sea monkeys are extremely fast swimmers and are not to be underestimated when it comes to agility. Like many aquatic or semi aquatic mammals, sea monkeys need to come ashore to breed. Young are raised in shallow pools where they can practice swimming until they are ready for the deep waters of kelp forests. The sea monkeys' humanoid hands and facial features also causes an illusion that these animals are aquatic humanoids, however, sea monkeys are only very distantly related to humans. The conservation status of the sea monkey is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the sea monkey's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
Rajasaurus

***Rajasaurus catafractarius*** (name meaning "armored princely lizard"), also known as the **Indian bogeyman**, is a species of non-avian predatory abelisaurid theropod dinosaur that originally lived during the Late Cretaceous Period (Maastrichtian) of what is now India as an extinct species, *Rajasaurus narmadensis*, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and, unlike most carnivorous non-avian dinosaurs, have been intentionally introduced throughout the modern mainland South and Southeast Asia to help boost biodiversity. *Rajasaurus catafractarius* is a bipedal carnivore that usually reaches about 22 feet (6.6 metres) in length, and it primarily feeds on fish, frogs, lizards, snakes, crocodilians, other non-avian dinosaurs, birds, small-to-medium-sized mammals, and carrion. *Rajasaurus catafractarius* is a solitary animal that usually spends throughout most of its life alone except during the breeding seasons. The conservation status of *Rajasaurus catafractarius* is **Vulnerable** due to some habitat loss and persecution, however, thanks to the conservationists, *Rajasaurus catafractarius* is a protected species.
Short-eared rabbit

The **short-eared rabbit** (*Pentalagus americanum*) is a species of rabbit, most closely related to the Amami rabbit (*Pentalagus furnessi*), that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the rainforests, wetlands, forests, open woodlands, grasslands, shrublands, and scrublands across North America to help boost biodiversity. The short-eared rabbit is almost identical to the Amami rabbit in general appearance. It has short feet and hind legs, a somewhat bulky body, and rather large and curved claws used for digging and sometimes climbing. Its ears are significantly smaller compared to those of other hares or rabbits. The pelage is thick, woolly and dark, brown on top and becomes more reddish-brown on the sides. It has heavy, long and very strong claws, being nearly straight on the forefeet and curved on the hindfeet The eyes are also small compared to more common rabbits and hares. The average weight is 2.5–2.8 kilograms. The short-eared rabbit feeds on over 100 species of plants, consuming mostly the grass, sprouts, young shoots, roots, and acorns. It also eats nuts and cambium of a wide variety of plant species. The short-eared rabbit is observed to feed on the bark of stems and twigs of shrub plants. During summer, the short-eared rabbit primarily feeds on grass, seeds, vegetables, roots, tubers, and bulbs, and during winter, they primarily eat the acorns and other nuts of many tree species, along with pine needles and leaves. This species is nocturnal and reproduces couple of times in late March–May, giving birth to an average six young each time. During the day, the mother digs a hole in the ground, for her young to hide in. At night, she opens the entrance to the hole, while watching for predators (such as venomous snakes), and then nurses her young, after which she closes the hole with soil and plant material by thumping on it with her front paws. Short-eared rabbits sleep during the day in hidden locations, such as caves, burrows, and dens. They are also noted for having a call similar to that of a pika. The conservation status of the short-eared rabbit is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the short-eared rabbit's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
Sardinian pika

The **Sardinian pika** (*Prolagus sardus*) is a species of pika that is native to the islands of Sardinia, Corsica and neighbouring Mediterranean islands. This species was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and reintroduced to Sardinia to help boost biodiversity. As the only living member of the genus *Prolagus*, the Sardinian pika is also the largest living species of pika, weighing about 504-525 grams on average. It can dig burrows that can reach to be around 6-7 feet deep. Its diet is strictly vegetarian, feeding primarily on grasses, flowers, shrubs, and fruits, although it can also feed on leaves to supplement its diet. The Sardinian pika is a major source of food for many predators of Sardinia, like birds of prey and the Sardinian dhole, which is specialized in the hunt for this lagomorph. The conservation status of the Sardinian pika is **Vulnerable** due to some habitat loss and historic poaching, however, thanks to the conservationists, the Sardinian pika is a protected species.
Rhamphorhynchus

***Rhamphorhynchus sciifii*** (name meaning "SciiFii's Rhamphorhynchus") is a species of tiny pterosaur that originally lived in Late Jurassic Europe and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii. *Rhamphorhynchus sciifii* is a nocturnal animal, feeding on a wide range of nocturnal small fish, insects, cephalopods, and crustaceans, having a lifestyle similar to that of a skimmers. It is a solitary animal that lives most of its life alone, but during breeding seasons, it congregates in large flocks up to around 100-145 at a time. *Rhamphorhynchus sciifii* is found throughout Eurasia, Africa, Australia, North America, and South America as a result of the SciiFii Pterosaur Incident, which occurred on October 12, 2039, and was caused by unidentified criminals and their failed attempt to steal pterosaurs for wars, but unintentionally released the pterosaurs out of the exhibits and into the modern world. *Rhamphorhynchus sciifii* is a very common species, not in risk of extinction, due to being an adaptable animal that is able to live in cities and suburbs, not just the wilderness.
Roadkiller

The **roadkiller** (*Plesiotis cyanopteryx*) is a species of large, turkey-sized predatory roadrunner that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the open woodlands, grasslands, shrublands, scrublands, and deserts across North America to help boost biodiversity. The roadkiller is one of the fastest running birds on land and is able to, not only hunt smaller animals, but also slightler larger cursorial mammals like mule deer, pronghorns, peccaries, rabbucks, and among other similarly-sized animals. Unlike its smaller relatives, the roadkiller is entirely flightless as it sacrificed its flight for running speed in order to hunt other fast land animals. The roadkiller is a solitary animal that prefers to live most of its life alone except during the breeding seasons. The conservation status of the roadkiller is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the roadkiller's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
Reef glider

The **reef glider** (*Proctonophocamimus molluski*), also known as the **raindrop sea slug** and the **elephant sea slug**, is a massive, omnivorous nudibranch sea slug that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced to the cool-to-warm shallow seas across the world to help boost biodiversity. The large form of a reef glider can often be seen sweeping through the water, silhouetted against the bright surface and throwing its shadow across reefs, including red algae reef. It is the world's largest nudibranch, growing to be around 2 meters long and weigh about 500-1,000 pounds. From its bulbous, teardrop-shaped body protrude three pairs of paddles. A long bunch of streamer-like filaments trails behind. Despite its ugly common names, it is a dainty-looking creature, colorful and elegant, its gills forming fernlike arrays on its back. The reef glider is usually solitary animal that spends most of its life alone, but during breeding seasons, the reef gliders of different genders congregate in large packs in order to mate to ensure their species' further survival. The conservation status of the reef glider is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts and the reef glider's wide range.
Saltasaurus V1

***Saltasaurus modernii*** (name meaning "modern lizard from Salta") is a species of medium-sized herbivorous titanosaurid sauropod dinosaur which originally lived in what is now Argentina during the Late Cretaceous Period and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and now lives in **Cretaceous Safari** in **Cretaceous Park** located at Sacramento, California. Small among sauropods, though still heavy by the standards of modern creatures, *Saltasaurus modernii* is characterized by a short neck and stubby limbs, and can live to a ripe old age of 120 years old. It was the first genus of sauropod to be known to have possess armour of bony plates embedded in its skin. Such small bony plates, called osteoderms, have since been found on other titanosaurids (both living and still-extinct). Female *Saltasaurus modernii* is a social animal, living in herds consisting of daughters, mothers, grandmothers, and great grandmother, while males are solitary in most of their lives, but during mating seasons, males battle other males to win a right to mate with females.
Rajaphant

A **Rajaphant** (*Gregisaurus titanops*) is a species of large sauropod that was created by SciiFii and now lives in the **Expanded Mezozoic** section of **Cretaceous Park** located at Sacramento, California. It is a gentle giant mixed-feeding herbivore and mainly feeds on grasses, leaves, fruits, and nuts, and the adults can reach lengths about 22 meters. Its social behavior is similar to elephants, with the exception of having adult males in herds (which elephant herds don't normally contain), an elderly bull male is often the leader of each herd, the younger bulls marches along the flanks in a defensive formation, and the females shepherd the calves in a knot in the center of the herds.
Red-masked duck

The **red-masked duck** (*Cairina rubercephala*) is a species of large duck that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the rainforests, wetlands, forests, open woodlands, lakes, rivers, and ponds across North America to help boost biodiversity. The closest living relative of the red-masked duck is the wild muscovy duck (*Cairina moschata*). The male red-masked duck is about 76 centimeters (30 inches) long, and weighing up to 7 kg (15 lb). Females are considerably smaller, and only grow to 3 kilograms (6.6 lb), roughly half the males' size. The bird is predominantly covered in black feathers, which are iridescent and glossy in males, while the females are more drab. The bill can be dark yellow, black, or any mixture of these colors. It may have white patches or bars on the wings, which become more noticeable during flight. Both sexes have red wattles around the bill and above their eyes, hence their names, those of the male being larger and more brightly colored. This non-migratory species normally inhabits forested swamps, lakes, streams and nearby grassland and farm crops, and often roosts in trees at night. The red-masked duck's diet consists of plant material obtained by grazing or dabbling in shallow water, and small fish, amphibians, reptiles, crustaceans, insects, and millipedes. This is an aggressive duck towards its own species; males often fight over food, territory or mates. The females fight with each other less often. Some adults will peck at the ducklings if they are eating at the same food source. Despite this, the red-masked ducks are nonaggressive towards other species of waterfowls. The red-masked duck has benefited from nest boxes. This species does not form stable pairs. They will mate on land or in water and can breed up to three times each year. The female lays a clutch of 8–16 white eggs, usually in a tree hole or hollow, which are incubated for 35 days. The sitting hen will leave the nest once a day from 20 minutes to one and a half hours, and will then defecate, drink water, eat and sometimes bathe. Once the eggs begin to hatch, it may take 24 hours for all the chicks to break through their shells. When feral chicks are born, they usually stay with their mother for about 10–12 weeks. Their bodies cannot produce all the heat they need, especially in temperate regions, so they will stay close to the mother, especially at night. Often, the male will stay in close contact with the brood for several weeks. The male will walk with the young during their normal travels in search for food, providing protection. The conservation status of the red-masked duck is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the red-masked duck's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
Rodrigues pigeon

The **Rodrigues pigeon**, also known as **Rodrigues dove** (*Nesoenas rodericanus*) is a species of pigeon endemic to the Mascarene island of Rodrigues. The Rodrigues pigeon was once extinct since the mid-18th century, but has since been brought back extinction by SciiFii and reintroduced to Rodrigues to help boost biodiversity. The closest relative of the Rodrigues pigeon is the Malagasy turtle dove (*Nesoenas picturata*). The Rodrigues pigeon is about the size of a tambourine dove and is naturally colored slate grey. The Rodrigues pigeon usually perches on tree branches and is extremely tame towards people. The Rodrigues pigeon is herbivorous, feeding on both exotic and native plants - consuming buds, flowers, leaves, shoots, fruits and seeds. These birds exhibit ground-feeding behaviors, moving and turning over leaf litter in order to find food and grit (for use as gizzard stones). The breeding season of the Rodrigues pigeon begins in August–September, although birds may breed all year round. The male courts the female with a "step and bow" display. Mating is generally monogamous, with the pair making a flimsy platform nest and defending a small area around it (even though the pigeons initially had no natural predators, one mating pair must defend their territory from other mating pairs). Rodrigues pigeons generally mate for life. The female usually lays two white eggs, and incubation duration is two weeks. The male incubates during the day, and the female during night and early day. They may breed often, laying five to 10 eggs in a season; breeding only pauses in the wild whilst in molt, which may be full or a partial-body/head molt. The conservation status of the Rodrigues pigeon is **Near Threatened** due to some habitat loss and historic invasive predators, however, thanks to the conservationists, the invasive predators like rats were eradicated from Rodrigues and the Rodrigues pigeon is a protected species.
Razor-toothed toe-biter

The **razor-toothed toe-biter** (*Carnorattosaurus americanus*) is a species of small, burrowing abelisaurid dinosaur that was created by SciiFii and introduced to North America to help boost biodiversity. The razor-toothed toe-biter is about the size of a house cat and mainly preys on mice, rats, voles, squirrels, shrews, moles, rabbits, small-to-medium-sized lizards, and other small animals. It is named due to a popular myth about these small dinosaurs biting and ripping off toes of people and other large animals, but this is just a myth and there has never been a record of toe-biters attacking and eating humans toes or even toes of other large animals. The conservation status of the razor-toothed toe-biter is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the toe-biters' wide range in North America, and their ability to adapt to life in the cities and suburbs.
Ropen frigatebird

A **ropen frigatebird** (*Gigantofregata osteokelpto*) is a species of frigatebird that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the coastlines of New Guinea and Australia to help boost biodiversity. The ropen frigatebird is the world's largest frigatebird species, with the wingspan of about 4.5 meters (15 feet) across on average, it exceeds the wingspans of any albatross species. The ropen frigatebird can be distinguished from other frigatebird species not only by its massive size, but also by its jet-black feathers, a tall crest of feathers, and, in males, a light blue gular pouch. The ropen frigatebird is primarily piscivorous, feeding mainly on fish and squid smaller than itself. However, the ropen frigatebird is also an extremely opportunistic scavenger, notorious for its habits of digging up recently interred corpse of small and medium-sized animals such as humans. Beyond that, it can steal eggs and dig up rodent burrows, eating what it can to bolster its daily calorie count. Ropen frigatebirds dig with their specialized feet with thick claws, mostly used to aide in the creation of their shallow ground nests. They spend the majority of their lives alone, save for the breeding season, where they track down the same mate year after year, and lay between 3 and five eggs at a time. The conservation satus of the ropen frigatebird is **Vulnerable** due to persecution from the native people through superstitions, however, thanks to the conservationists, the ropen frigatebird is a protected species and there are conservation groups who educate people about ropen frigatebirds and why they aren't monsters as often thought.
SciiFii

**SciiFii** is a bioengineering start-up company founded by Richard Boggs. This company performs research to recreate extinct animals (by creating CGI models based on our current views of extinct animals, using DNA of modern animals, modifying them to match the CGI models before tweeking them into live animals, either through artificial wombs or using unfertilized eggs of monotreme mammals, birds, non-avian reptiles, amphibians, fish, and invertebrates, in a process known as **CG-Engineering** or **Computer-Genome Engineering**), with the aim to clone those creatures and expose them in some wildlife preserves, as well as theme parks such as **Cretaceous Park**.

Plains okapi

The **plains okapi** (*Hippomeryx cervitragus*) is a species of giraffid, most closely related to the forest okapi, that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the open woodlands, grasslands, shrublands, and scrublands across sub-Saharan Africa to help boost biodiversity. The plains okapi is more gracile in build in comparison to forest okapis, with longer legs, and being shorter than its relatives. Typical height is about 12–14 feet (48–56 inches, 122–142 cm), and length is about 2.1 meters (6 feet 11 inches). It weighs around 300 kilograms (660 lbs). The plains okapi is not very specialized for grazing, and displays a mixed browser-grazer strategy that allows it to exploit the most available vegetation type at any moment. The plains okapis form troops of between five and fifteen members, consisting of an old bull, his cows (females) and calves. The offspring stay in the family group until they are no longer dependent, usually at two or three years old. Young females join other harems, while bachelor bulls as well as old bulls who have lost their harems join bachelor groups. Family groups can join to form a herd that moves together. The patterns of their daily lives exhibit behavior similar to that of horse herds. Bulls herd, drive, and defend all members of their family, while the cows often display leadership in the family. Bulls and cows stay with their preferred partners for years. While behavioral synchronization is high among cows, bulls other than the main harem bulls are generally less stable in this respect. Plains okapis maintain visual contact with their family and herd at all times, and have a host of ways to communicate with one another, including vocalizations, scent marking, and a wide range of visual and tactile signals. Each kick, groom, tilt of the ear, or other contact with another plains okapi is a means of communicating. This constant communication leads to complex social behaviors among plains okapis. Mating occurs year-round, but preferably during the dry season. Mating bulls do not start looking for mating partners until the age of ﬁve. Bulls assemble groups of cows or challenge the leader of another group for dominance. Females are able to give birth at the age of three and have a gestation period of 11–12 months, during the early wet season. Calves are able to stand about an hour after birth. The rate of infant mortality among calves is 25%, with 83.3% of these deaths resulting from leading bull infanticide. Calves begin grazing within a few weeks but are not weaned for 8–13 months after birth. They reach sexual maturity at two years of age. The conservation status of the plains okapi is **Vulnerable** due to habitat loss and poaching, however, thanks to the conservationists, the plains okapi is a protected species.
Red-crowned macaw

The **red-crowned macaw** (*Ara californianus*), also known as the **California macaw** and the **Californian macaw**, is a species of large macaw that originally did not exist, but has been since created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the swamps, forests, and open woodlands of California, Nevada, Arizona, and Oregon to help boost biodiversity. The red-crowned macaw is about the size of a large blue-and-yellow macaw (*Ara ararauna*), and resembles the blue-and-yellow macaw in coloration, but with darker blue feathers and a red capped coloration on its head, hence its name. It is an omnivore that primarily feeds on insects, larvae, snails, nuts, fruits, seeds, flowers, and nectar. Red-crowned macaws make very loud, high and sometimes low-pitched, throaty squawks, squeaks and shouts designed to carry many kilometers to call for their groups. Like other macaws, they are known to mimic human speech if they're raised in captivity. The red-crowned macaw can live up to 75 or even 90 years in captivity, although a more typical lifespan is 40 to 50 years. The conservation status of the red-crowned macaw is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the red-crowned macaw's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
Réunion night heron

The **Réunion night heron** (*Nycticorax duboisi*) is a species of night heron occurring on the Mascarene island of Réunion. The Réunion night heron was once extinct since the mid-18th century, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and reintroduced to the Mascarene island of Réunion. The Réunion night heron is the largest *Nycticorax* of the Mascarene Islands and larger even than the nankeen night heron (*Nycticorax caledonicus*). Unlike its relatives from Mauritius and Rodrigues, it is not adapted to a terrestrial lifestyle; its wings are strong and its legs not adapted to chasing prey on foot. Instead, the Réunion night heron is adapted for an amphibious lifestyle like most night herons and it primarily feeds on fish. The conservation status of the Rodrigues night heron is **Vulnerable** due to some habitat loss and historic poaching, however, thanks to the conservationists, the Rodrigues night heron is a protected species.
