Black-fronted goose

The **black-fronted goose** (*Anser longubeccus*) is a species of goose that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the open woodlands, grasslands, shrublands, scrublands, lakes, rivers, and ponds across North America to help boost biodiversity. The black-fronted goose greatly resembles the wild Asian swan goose (*Anser cygnoides*), with its upperparts are greyish-brown, with thin light fringes to the larger feathers and a maroon hindneck and cap (reaching just below the eye). The remiges are blackish, as are the entire underwing and the white-tipped rectrices, while the upper- and undertail coverts are white. A thin white stripe surrounds the bill base. Apart from darker streaks on the belly and flanks, the underside is pale buff, being especially light on the lower head and foreneck which are sharply delimited against the maroon. In flight, the wings appear dark, with no conspicuous pattern. Uniquely among its genus, the long, heavy bill is completely black; the legs and feet, on the other hand, are orange as in most of its relatives. The eyes' irides are maroon. Juveniles are duller than adult birds, and lack the white bill base and dark streaks on the underside. The sexes are similar, although the male is larger, with a proportionally longer bill and neck; in fact the largest females are barely as large as the smallest males. The black-fronted goose is large and long-necked for its genus, being usually around 81–94 centimeters (32–37 inches) long and weighing 2.8–3.5 kilograms (6.2–7.7 lb) or more. Typical measurements of the wing are 45–46 cm (18–18 inches) in males, 37.5–44 cm (14.8–17.3 inches) in females; the bill is about 8.7–9.8 cm (3.4–3.9 inches) long in males and 7.5–8.5 cm (3.0–3.3 inches) in females. The tarsus of males measures around 8.1 cm (3.2 inches). The wingspan of adult geese is 160–185 cm (63–73 in). The voice is a loud drawn-out and ascending honking aang. As a warning call, a similar but more barking honk is given two or three times in short succession. The black-fronted goose is herbivorous and mainly feeds on plants such as grasses and sedges (Cyperaceae). The black-fronted breeds as single pairs or loose groups near wetlands and/or ponds/lakes, with nesting activity starting about May. The clutch is usually 6–9 but sometimes up to 13 eggs, which are laid in a shallow nest made from plants, placed directly on the ground, often on a small knoll to keep it dry. The precocial young hatch after about 28 days and become sexually mature at 2–3 years of age. Around late August/early September, the birds leave for winter quarters, where they gather in small groups to moult their worn plumage. The conservation status of the black-fronted goose is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the black-fronted goose's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
Caspian tiger

The **Caspian tiger** is a *Panthera tigris tigris* population that originally lived from eastern Turkey, Mesopotamia, the Caucasus around the Caspian Sea through Central Asia to northern Afghanistan and Xinjiang in western China, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and reintroduced to western Asia and eastern Europe to help boost biodiversity. It inhabits sparse forests and riverine corridors. Some Caspian tiger individuals are intermediate in size between Siberian and Bengal tigers. Caspian tigers are also known as the Balkhash tiger, Hyrcanian tiger, Turanian tiger, and Babre Mazandaran (Persian: ببرِ مازندران‎), depending on the region of its occurrence. The Caspian tiger prowls widely and follows migratory ungulates from one pasture to another. Wild pigs and cervids form their main prey base. In many regions of Central Asia, Bactrian deer and roe deer are important prey species, as well as Caucasian red deer, goitered gazelle in Iran; Eurasian golden jackals, jungle cats, locusts, and other small mammals in the lower Amu-Darya River area; saiga, wild horses, Persian onagers in Miankaleh peninsula; Turkmenian kulans, Mongolian wild asses, and mountain sheep in the Zhana-Darya and around the Aral Sea; Manchurian wapiti and moose in the area of Lake Baikal. They can catch fish in flooded areas and irrigation channels. The conservation status of the Caspian tiger is **Vulnerable** due to some habitat loss and poaching, however, the conservationists have since protected Caspian tigers and their natural habitats.
Californian wild dog

The **Californian wild dog** (*Neolycaon americanum*), also known as the **California wild dog**, the **western wild dog**, the **Wild West dog**, and the **American painted dog**, is a species of canine that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the open woodlands, grasslands, shrublands, and scrublands across the western United States and Mexico to help boost biodiversity. It is very similar to the African wild dog (*Lycaon pictus*) in size and general appearance, but is not as colorful, with a more dull brown coloration and less black and blonde fur, and has a slightly longer muzzle in comparison. It is also more closely related to the bush dogs than African wild dogs, despite its appearance and behavior similar to African wild dogs. The Californian wild dog is a carnivore that primarily feeds on carrion, eggs, pronghorns, deer, camelids, sheep, goats, capybaras, peccaries, wild pigs, horses, tapirs, and other similarly-sized herbivores. The Californian wild dog is a highly social animal, living in packs with separate dominance hierarchies for males and females. Uniquely among social carnivores, the females rather than the males disperse from the natal pack once sexually mature. The young are allowed to feed first on carcasses. Like other canids, the Californian wild dog regurgitates food for its young, but this action is also extended to adults, to the point of being central to their social life. The conservation status of the Californian wild dog is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts and the Californian wild dog's wide range.
Borealopelta

***Borealopelta fulvusquamea***, also known as the **juggernaut**, is a species of nodosaurid ankylosaur dinosaur that originally lived in Late Cretaceous North America as an extinct species, *Borealopelta markmitchelli*, and the genus was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced to the modern swamps, dense forests, and open woodlands of modern North America to help boost biodiversity. *Borealopelta fulvusquamea* is a rather large animal, growing to be about the size of a very large white rhinoceros. Despite its size, it is well-camouflaged thanks to its reddish-brown skin color with light yellowish-brown countershade to blend in with the forest environments it lives in. It also has armor on its back is primarily used for defensive rather than display purposes. Additionally, the spikes of *Borealopelta fulvusquamea* have a dual function as defensive weapons and display structures useful in attracting mates and in species recognition. It is a herbivore that primarily feeds on leaves, stems, wood, leptosporangiate ferns, cycads, and conifers, but can also feed on insect larvae (grubs, etc) and worms to supplement its diet. It is a social animal that can live in small herds of up to around 5 at a time. The conservation status of *Borealopelta fulvusquamea* is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts and the animal's wide range.
Common North American fruit bat

The **common North American fruit bat** (*Artibeus americanum*), also known as the **western American fruit bat** and, sometimes, the **California fruit bat**, is a species of bat that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout North America to help boost biodiversity. The distinctive features of the common North American fruit bat (which however are shared by some of its relatives) include the absence of an external tail and a minimal, U-shaped interfemoral membrane. The common North American fruit bat is a medium-sized bat, having a total length of 78–89 mm (3.1–3.5 in) with a 96–150 mm (3.8–5.9 in) wingspan and weighing 40 to 60 g (1.4 to 2.1 oz). Unlike its relatives from Central or South America, the common North American fruit bat has thicker fur for insulation against the freezing temperatures throughout many parts of North America, including Alaska. It is also unlike most of its relatives due to the fact that the common North American fruit bat is largely diurnal, not just nocturnal, so it is active during both day and night, giving it another nickname, the **American flying fox**, after several diurnal flying fox species. Common North American fruit bats roost in caves, hollow trees, dense foliage, buildings and leaf tents. The common North American fruit bat may create its own "tent" to roost in by altering broad leaves. These "tents" are only temporarily used. Like its relatives, the common North American fruit bat is a frugivore, feeding on a number of kinds of fruit such as bananas, apples, oranges, tangerines, figs, plums, grapes, and among others. The common North American fruit bat plays an important role in seed dispersal by feeding on the fruit with the seeds inside, similarly to many other fruit bats. The conservation status of the common North American fruit bat is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the common North American fruit bat's wide range and its tolerance to most of the human activities.
California bison

The **California bison** (*Bison bison californianus*) is a subspecies of American bison (*Bison bison*), most closely related to the plains bison (*Bison bison bison*), that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the open woodlands, grasslands, shrublands, and scrublands across California (hence its name), Nevada, Utah, Idaho, Oregon, Washington, Arizona, New Mexico, and western Mexico to help boost biodiversity. The California bison has a shaggy, long, dark-brown winter coat, and a lighter-weight, slightly lighter-brown summer coat, which is darker and looser than those of the plains bison to help it loose more heat due to living in a warmer environment than plains bison. Male bison are significantly larger and heavier than females. Sexually mature young bulls may try to start mating with cows by the age of two or three years, but if more mature bulls are present, they may not be able to compete until they reach five years of age. For the first two months of life, calves are lighter in color than mature bison. A very rare condition is the white buffalo, in which the calf turns entirely white. Like all bison, the California bison are herbivores, grazing on the grasses and sedges of the Californian open woodlands and prairies. California bison are migratory and herd migrations can be directional as well as altitudinal in some areas. The herds of California bison can range from around 50 individuals to more than 300 individuals at a time, although reports of herds as high as 500 have been recorded. California bison have usual daily movements between foraging sites during the summer. Their daily schedule involves two-hour periods of grazing, resting, and cud chewing, then moving to a new location to graze again. California bison also drink water or consume snow on a daily basis, but in more arid environments, they can consume plants like melons and spineless cacti to obtain water. Female California bison live in maternal herds which include other females and their offspring. Male offspring leave their maternal herd when around three years old and either live alone or join other males in bachelor herds. Male and female herds usually do not mingle until the breeding season, which can occur from July through September. However, female herds may also contain a few older males. During the breeding season, dominant bulls maintain a small harem of females for mating. Individual bulls "tend" cows until allowed to mate, by following them around and chasing away rival males. The tending bull shields the female's vision with his body so she will not see any other challenging males. A challenging bull may bellow or roar to get a female's attention and the tending bull has to bellow/roar back. The most dominant bulls mate in the first 2–3 weeks of the season. More subordinate bulls mate with any remaining estrous cow that has not mated yet. Male bison play no part in raising the young. The conservation status of the California bison is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts and the California bison's wide range.
Chiromyoides

The **red squirrel-lemur** (*Chiromyoides sanguicoloratum*) is a species of small plesiadapid primatomorph mammal that originally lived in North America during the Late Paleocene through the Early Eocene as an extinct species of *Chiromyoides* 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 North America to help boost biodiversity. The red squirrel-lemur is about the size of a gray squirrel and has an omnivorous diet of seeds, nectar, flowers, and wood-boring insects, having a similar ecological niche to other flower-eating mammals and wood-boring insect-eating aye-ayes. The red squirrel-lemur is a solitary animal that spends throughout most of its life alone except during the breeding seasons. The conservation status of the red squirrel-lemur is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the red squirrel-lemur's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
Bleeding-hearted trogon

The **bleeding-hearted trogon** (*Neotrogon bonasus*) is a species of trogon that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the rainforests, wetlands, forests, and open woodlands across North America and northern Central America to help boost biodiversity. The closest living relative of the bleeding-hearted trogon is the elegant trogon (*Trogon elegans*). The bleeding-hearted trogon is a strongly sexually dimorphic species, with the females generally being duller than the males. The male bleeding-hearted trogon is physically defined by a black head and upper breast, a dark grey ring on the back of its neck, blue bill and eye ring with a bright blue coloured face. He has yellow-brown upperparts and upper tail with black outlines, a white breast-line with the dull red colors on the lower half of the breast (hence its name), bright red underparts and the under-tail is black and white. The females are blander in colour than the males, consisting of a grey-brown head and upper breast with yellow underparts. Both the males and females grow in height up to 32 centimetres, or 12.5 inches. They have a life span of approximately 7.9 years. Bleeding-hearted trogons are generally inactive outside of their regular feeding patterns. Because of this, they are notorious for their lack of other immediately engaging qualities. Their lack of activity has been considered a defence against predation. As with other Trogonidae species, bleeding-hearted trogons are known to shift along branches to keep their dull coloured backs turned towards observers, while their heads, which can rotate at 180 degrees like owls, are turned to keep watch on any potential predators. They are preyed upon by hawks and predatory mammals. The bleeding-hearted trogon is mainly insectivorous, feasting on arthropods with a preference for stick insects, beetles, and spiders. This regime is embellished with small lizards, fruits and seeds. The bleeding-hearted trogon's song voice is a slow, sad-sounding five to eight note “pau pau pau pau pau.” Each short note slightly down slurred (1.5-1.2 kHz) and delivered at a rate of c.1 note/s. In addition to the territorial and breeding calls given by males and females during the breeding seasons, bleeding-hearted trogons have also been recorded as having aggression and alarm calls. The bleeding-hearted trogon nests 2–19 metres (7–62 feet) high in tree cavities, including old woodpecker holes, with a typical clutch of 3–5 eggs. The conservation status of the bleeding-hearted trogon is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the bleeding-hearted trogon's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
Cladoselache

The **ancient shark** (*Cladoselache marinus*) is a species of shark that originally lived during the Devonian period in what is now North America as an extinct species of *Cladoselache* and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced throughout the world's oceans to help boost biodiversity. The ancient shark usually grows to be up to 5.9 feet (1.8 metres) long. It is known to be a fast-moving and fairly agile predator due to its streamlined body and deeply forked tail like other sharks such as mako sharks. Due to the ancient shark being known as being one of, if not, the oldest known shark on Earth, it is one of the best known of the originally-prehistoric sharks. The ancient shark has six gill slits, and a short, rounded snout that has a terminal mouth opening at the front of the skull. It has a very weak jaw joint compared with other sharks, but it compensates for that with very strong jaw-closing muscles. It also has a blade-like structure which is positioned in front of the dorsal fins. These anatomical features make swimming easier and faster. The ancient shark, unlike most sharks, is almost entirely devoid of scales with the exception of small cusped scales on the edges of the fins, mouth and around the eyes. The ancient shark is a fast and agile carnivore that primarily preys on fish, crustaceans, small sea scorpions, and other sea-going animals smaller than itself. Unlike most other sharks, the ancient shark lacks claspers, organs found in modern sharks that are responsible for the transfer of sperm during reproduction. Instead, the ancient shark reproduces in a manner similar to other primitive fish such as lampreys, traveling into rivers and lakes to spawn their eggs resembling those of horn sharks, before heading back to the oceans. The eggs hatch around 3 months later as hatchlings, where they stay in lakes and rivers for 5 months before heading out to the oceans when they are almost fully-grown. The conservation status of the ancient shark is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the ancient shark's wide range and its tolerance to most of the human activities. The ancient shark does not pose any danger to people or their pets due to the ancient shark's docile and tame nature towards land animals, so humans tolerate their presence.
Cacibupteryx

***Cacibupteryx alba*** is a species of rhamphorhynchid pterosaur that originally lived from the middle-late Oxfordian-age Upper Jurassic Jagua Formation of Pinar del Río, Cuba, as an extinct species, *Cacibupteryx caribensis*, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii. *Cacibupteryx alba* is one of the largest known rhamphorhynchid, having a wingspan of up to about 6.5 feet (2 meters) across on average. *Cacibupteryx alba* is a carnivore, feeding on a wide range of insects, spiders, fish, and frogs, although it can also feed on carrion similarly to scavenging birds such as magpies, crows, and ravens. It is normally a solitary animal, but during breeding seasons, males often try to find females, and if successful, they become mates for life. *Cacibupteryx alba* is found throughout North 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. *Cacibupteryx alba* 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.
Castoroides

The **giant beaver** (*Castoroides americanus*) is a species of enormous beaver that originally lived in North America during the Pleistocene as two extinct species, *C. leiseyorum* and *C. ohioensis*, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and reintroduced to the modern swamps, marshlands, and riverbanks across North America to help boost biodiversity. The giant beaver is one of the largest beavers to ever exist, growing on average length of around 1.9 meters (6.2 feet) and weighing about 90 kg (198 lb), but some giant beavers can grow to be about 2.2 meters (7.2 feet) long and weigh around 125 kg (276 lb). The hind feet of the giant beaver are much larger than in smaller beavers, while the hind legs are shorter. The tail is longer and is not paddle-shaped as in smaller beavers, although it can swim efficiently due its larger webbed hind feet. The skull structure of the giant beaver allow it to participate in extended underwater activity, thanks to its ability to take in more oxygen to its lungs. The size of its brain is proportionally smaller. As a result, the giant beaver has inferior interactions in its environment, as well as less complex patterns of thoughts and behavior than its smaller relative. Some giant beavers live in dams made by their smaller relatives, due to the giant beavers inability to make dams, so they depend on the smaller beavers for shelter, and in turn, the giant beavers help the smaller beavers by detering predators more dangerous than what the smaller beavers could handle. The conservation status of the giant beaver is **Least Concern** thanks to strong conservation efforts and the giant beaver's wide natural range.
Chatham kaka

The **Chatham kaka** or **Chatham Island kaka** (*Nestor chathamensis*) is a species of parrot native to the Chatham Islands, New Zealand. It was once extinct since between 1500s and 1700s, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and reintroduced to the Chatham Islands to help boost biodiversity. The Chatham kaka is a forest dwelling species of about the same size as the North Island subspecies of the kaka, *Nestor meridionalis septentrionalis*. However, it has a much broader pelvis, enlarged legs, and a beak that is intermediate between kea and kaka. It has no natural predators (it is bigger than the New Zealand falcon) and is a poor flier. The Chatham kaka is known to feed on fruits, berries, seeds, flowers, buds, nectar, sap, plants and invertebrates. The conservation status of the Chatham kaka is **Endangered** due to some habitat loss and, historically, poaching and invasive species, however, thanks to conservationists, the invasive species on New Zealand have been eradicated, and the native species, including Chatham kakas, are making a comeback.
Cave sheep

The **cave sheep** (*Phasmatovis spelea*), sometimes known as the **wool-o'-wisp**, is a species of wild sheep that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout Eurasia and North America to help boost biodiversity. The closest living relative of the cave sheep is the domestic sheep (*Ovis aries*). Unlike other species of caprids (sheep, goats, etc), the cave sheep is extremely specialized for a nocturnal lifestyle, using caves and other subterranean tunnels to avoid predators and bad weather, venturing out only at night to graze, using its large sensitive eyes and ears as an adaptation to such low-light conditions. The highly reflective tapetum lucidum in the cave sheep's large eyes gives it excellent night vision, and also causes the "glowing" eyeshine effect. While in normal lighting, the cave sheep resembles a small sheep with an almost rabbit-like face,

    in deep darkness, its most unique adaptation becomes apparent, it glows in the dark. The glow isn't from the sheep itself, but from a bioluminescent fungus which grows within its fleece. This symbiotic arrangement gives the fungus plentiful food sources, feeding on and breaking down the constantly-growing wool. Meanwhile, the cave sheep gains its own faint natural light source even in the darkest regions of the cave system, aiding in navigation, along with a build-in hair-trimming system to prevent its fleece from growing too long and unwieldy. The cave sheep's fleece is a small ecosystem in itself, hosting various lice, ticks, mites, beetles, and moths along with the glowing fungus. Additionally, the presence of the fungus acts as an efficient predation deterrent, despite the glow making the cave sheep more conspicuous in the dark. Along with smelling and tasting foul, the fungal-weakened hair shafts of fleece break off really easily, and attacking predators are likely to end up with only a chunk of slimy wool in their grip. The conservation status of the cave sheep is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the cave sheep's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
Barbatodon

The **common Hațeg shrew** (*Barbatodon europeansis*) is a species of multituberculate mammal, despite its name, that originally lived in the original Hațeg Island during the Late Cretaceous period as an extinct species, *Barbatodon transylvanicum*, and the genus itself was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced throughout the modern day Hațeg Island to help boost biodiversity and recreate the lost world and ecology of the island. As an average-sized multituberculate, the common Hațeg shrew can grow to be 6 inches (15 centimeters) in length from the nose to the base of the tail and weighs 75 to 230 grams (2.6 to 8.1 oz), depending on the subpopulation. The common Hațeg shrew is part of the family, Kogaionidae, and has a similar insectivorous lifestyle to iron-enamelled insectivores such as true shrews and kin, feeding on a wide range of insects, spiders, mollusks, and other terrestrial invertebrates. Like some rodents and true shrews, the common Hațeg shrew has red, iron-pigmented enamel. The common Hațeg shrew is mainly nocturnal and terrestrial, with some arboreal exploration and nesting. Outside of mating, it is usually solitary. Like marsupials, the common Hațeg shrew gives birth to tiny helpless, underdeveloped young, which the mothers care for in their burrows or dens for prolonged periods. The conservation status of the common Hațeg shrew is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the common Hațeg shrew's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
Carnotaurus V3 (SciiFii)

***Carnotaurus diablo*** (name meaning "meat-eating bull devil") is a species of large carnivorous abelisaurid theropod dinosaur that originally lived in what is now South America during the Late Cretaceous period, between about 72 and 69.9 million years ago, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and, unlike SciiFii's first (re)created *Carnotaurus* species, has been introduced throughout the modern open woodlands, grasslands, shrublands, and open woodlands across North America to help boost biodiversity and to help regulate modern populations of sauropods and ornithopods. *Carnotaurus diablo* is a moderately built, bipedal predator, measuring 7.5 to 9 meters (24.6 to 29.5 feet) in length and weighing about 1.65 metric tons (1.62 long tons; 1.81 short tons), heavier than *Carnotaurus tigris* due to having thicker blubber to protect the animal against colder temperatures. As a theropod, *Carnotaurus diablo* is highly specialized and distinctive. It has thick horns above the eyes, a feature unseen in most other carnivorous dinosaurs, and a very deep skull sitting on a muscular neck. *Carnotaurus diablo* is further characterized by small, vestigial forelimbs and long, slender hindlimbs. *Carnotaurus diablo* is covered in thick scaly skin and is protected from other similar-sized and smaller predators by thick circular armor that covers its neck, torso, and tail. The distinctive horns and the muscular neck are normally used in fighting conspecifics and/or for rivals that combate each other with quick head blows, either by slow pushes with the upper sides of their skulls, and/or by ramming each other head-on, using their horns as shock absorbers. *Carnotaurus diablo* is known to hunt down some of the very large prey such as sauropods, but normally, due to the build of the animal and filling the similar ecological niche to native modern cheetahs, *Carnotaurus diablo* normally preys on relatively smaller, faster animals and may even feed on carrion. Despite being a carnivore, it does not prey on mammalian prey (most likely due to genetic engineering by SciiFii's scientists). *Carnotaurus diablo* is well adapted for running and is one of the fastest large non-avian theropods. *Carnotaurus diablo* is a solitary animal throughout its life unless it is breeding season or if it has a mate and/or young. The conservation status of *Carnotaurus diablo* is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts and the animal's wide range.
California walking shark

The **California walking shark** (*Hemiscyllium californianus*) is a species of longtailed carpet shark of the family Hemiscylliidae, most closely related to the epaulette shark (*Hemiscyllium ocellatum*), that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the Californian Great Barrier Reef to help boost biodiversity, although it is able to adapt to brackish waters and tide pools on the coastal regions of North America. A small species usually under 1 meters (3.3 feet) long, the California walking shark has a slender body with a short head and broad, paddle-shaped paired fins. The caudal peduncle (to which the tail fin is attached) comprises over half the California walking shark's length. Adults are light brown above, with scattered darker spots and indistinct saddles. California walking sharks have nocturnal habits and frequent shallow water on coral reefs or in tidal pools. This shark has adapted to cope with the severe night time oxygen depletion (hypoxia) in isolated tidal pools by increasing the blood supply to its brain and selectively shutting down non-essential neural functions. It is capable of surviving complete anoxia for nineteen hours without ill effects, longer than the closely related epaulette shark, and at a much higher temperature than most other hypoxia-tolerant animals. Rather than swim, California walking sharks often "walk" by wriggling their bodies and pushing with their paired fins, hence their names. This species feeds on a wide range of small benthic invertebrates and bony fishes. California walking sharks are oviparous, with females depositing pairs of egg capsules around every 14 days from August to December. Due to their hardiness and small size, California walking sharks are popular with both public and home aquaria. The conservation status of the California walking shark is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts and the California walking shark's wide range.
Castor californicus

The **California beaver** (*Castor californicus*), is a species of beaver that originally lived in western North America from the end of the Miocene to the early Pleistocene and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced throughout the modern rainforests, wetlands, and riverbanks across the western United States and Mexico to help boost biodiversity. The California beaver is similar to but larger than the North American beaver, *C. canadensis*, being comparable in size to the Eurasian beaver, *C. fiber*. Its head-to-body length is 80–100 centimeters (31–39 inches) with a 25–50 centimeters (9.8–19.7 inches) long tail length. It weighs around 11–30 kilograms (24–66 lbs). The California beaver is a keystone species, as it helps to support the ecosystem which it inhabits. It creates wetlands, which provide habitat for American water vole, North American river otter, American small-clawed otter, North American giant otter, and American water shrew. By coppicing waterside trees and shrubs it facilitates their regrowth as dense shrubs, thus providing cover for birds and other animals. California beavers build dams that trap sediment, improve water quality, recharge groundwater tables and increase cover and forage for trout and salmon. Also, abundance and diversity of vespertilionid bats increase, apparently because of gaps created in forests, making it easier for bats to navigate. California beavers are herbivorous, eating "water and river bank plants", including tubers, "rootstocks of myrtles, cattails, water lilies", and also trees, including softwood tree bark. Their long appendices and the microorganisms within make possible the digestion of bark cellulose. Their daily food intake is approximately 20% of their body weight. California beavers have one litter per year, coming into estrus for only 12 to 24 hours, between late December and May, but peaking in January. Unlike most other rodents, beaver pairs are monogamous, staying together for multiple breeding seasons. Gestation averages 107 days and they average three kits per litter with a range of two to six kits. Most California beavers do not reproduce until they are three years of age, but about 20% of two-year-old females reproduce. The conservation status of the California beaver is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the California beaver's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
Ark Engineering

**Ark Engineering** is a creationist genetic engineering company founded and run by creationist “scientist” George Henry. The company is well known for its use of highly outdated science in the engineering of its animals and unintentionally debunking the ideas of intelligent design and a young Earth multiple times. None of the animals have been given scientific names as the group refuses to let this happen. All of the animals are horribly inbred too, as only a single male and female are initially engineered.

Batrachognathus

***Batrachognathus nigrum*** is a species of anurognathid pterosaur that originally lived in what is now Kazakhstan during the Late Jurassic as an extinct species, *Batrachognathus volans*, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii. *Batrachognathus nigrum* is a very small animal, having a wingspan of about 50 centimeters (20 inches) in length. It is an insectivore that primarily feeds on flies, gnats, mayflies, moths, and other nocturnal insects. Like many other species of anurognathids, it is an aerial and acrobatic flier much like swifts, swallows, and nightjars. Like most anurognathids, it is a nocturnal pterosaur and can live alongside the insectivorous bats to seek shelter and safety in numbers. It is a solitary animal towards its own species that lives in most of its life alone except during the breeding seasons. *Batrachognathus nigrum* is found throughout North America and eastern 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. *Batrachognathus nigrum* 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.
Coelophysis

***Coelophysis americanum*** (meaning "American hollow form"), also known as the **hodag**, is a species of diurnal coelophysid theropod dinosaur that originally lived approximately 216 to 196 million years ago during the Triassic Period in what is now the southwestern United States and in Africa, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back by SciiFii and now lives in the **Triassic Dinosaurs** section of **Cretaceous Park** located at Sacramento, California.

It is a small, slenderly-built, ground-dwelling, bipedal carnivore, that can grow up to 3 m (9.8 ft) long, and normally feeds on smaller animals, carrion, and/or man-made food when alone, but can hunt animals as big as cattle when hunting in packs, but only during times of hardship. The lifecycle of *Coelophysis americanum* is very similar to birds and crocodilians, laying eggs about as much eggs and as often as fast-reproducing gamebirds, the eggs hatch around 1.5-2 months after being laid, and the hatchlings are cared for by their parents until they are subadults, when they must fend for themselves.

However, one incident occurred in November 4th, 2039, at 5:21 AM, when a shipping truck containing around 25 live adult *Coelophysis americanum* had toppled over, killing a driver and 7 *Coelophysis americanum* in a process, on a road near Lake Tahoe, the remaining *Coelophysis americanum* escaped into the wilderness. Ever since that incident, *Coelophysis americanum* are now found throughout North America, even in cold forests of Alaska and Canada, possibly due to *Coelophysis americanum* containing genes of cold-resistant birds and non-avian reptiles. *Coelophysis americanum* tolerates habitat loss and adapts really well into cities and suburbs, where large numbers of *Coelophysis americanum*, if there's enough food, can congregate, resembling a scene of massive *Coelophysis* flocks in Walking with Dinosaurs episode one. Despite being able to hunt large animals in packs, *Coelophysis americanum* in cites and suburbs have learned not to hunt domesticated animals or humans, as any predators that hunt humans or domestic animals aren't tolerated, and *Coelophysis americanum* are completely tame towards pets and humans.
Chinlea

The **Pacific coelacanth** (*Chinlea modernus*) is a species of mawsoniid coelacanth fish that originally lived in the Southwestern United States states of Arizona and New Mexico during the Triassic as an extinct species of *Chinlea* and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced to the modern Pacific coasts of North America to help boost biodiversity. The length of the Pacific coelacanth is normally about 1.5 meters (5 feet) long and it weighs around 68 kg (150 pounds). The Pacific coelacanth has lobed fins and a slender tail designed for a high-speed chase when hunting its prey or when escaping danger. The teeth of the Pacific coelacanth are large and sharp, designed to snatch up smaller fish such as herring and anchovies. The Pacific coelacanth is a solitary animal in most of its life, except during breeding seasons, when males and females congregate in shoals in order to mate. The conservation status of the Pacific coelacanth is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts and the Pacific coelacanth's wide range.
Californian maned wolf

The **Californian maned wolf** (*Chrysocyon brachyurus nelsoni*), also known as the **California maned wolf** and the **North American maned wolf**, is a subspecies of maned wolf that originally did not exist, but has since been by SciiFii and introduced throughout the wetlands, forests, open woodlands, grasslands, shrublands, and scrublands of the western United States and Mexico to help boost biodiversity. The Californian maned wolf is named for being most commonly found in California. The Californian maned wolves are the largest subspecies of maned wolf, about the size of an average-sized Great Dane. They usually live in small family groups consists of a mated pair and their offspring. They are mostly omnivorous, they eat seasonally abundant fruits and vegetables, which makes up 50 percent of the Californian maned wolf's diet. They also eat deer, feral goats and small mammals such as rodents, rabbits and insects. The conservation status of the Californian maned wolf is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the Californian maned wolf's wide range and its tolerance to most of the human activities.
Centrosaurus V1

**Centrosaurus modernus** is a species of herbivorous ceratopsian dinosaur that was first cloned by SciiFii in March 23, 2025, using both genetic engineering on an unknown base animal and extracting DNA contained in ancient Centrosaurus proteins. The Centrosaurus is a large animal, growing up to around 18 feet (5.5 meters) long and weigh about 4 tons, and that weight is held by the Centrosaurus' stocky limbs. Like other centrosaurines, Centrosaurus has single large horns over their noses. These horns curve forwards or backwards depending on the specimen. Skull ornamentation is reduced as animals age over time. The horns of Centrosaurus are used by males in battles for mates and/or for becoming leaders of the herds, although the male and female Centrosaurus also use their horns for defense from predators, including cougars, bears, and other predators. The frill is relatively short compared to the total skull length, and can grow to over half a meter (68.8 centimeters) long in the oldest and largest adults. Centrosaurus is distinguished by having two large hornlets which hook forwards over the frill. A pair of small upwards direct horns is also found over the eyes. The frills of Centrosaurus are moderately long, with fairly large fenestrae and small hornlets along the outer edges. Like other ceratopsids, the jaws of Centrosaurus are adapted to shear through tough plant material. Like the original Centrosaurus species from the Mesozoic, the modern Centrosaurus is a social herd-dwelling animal, living in large herds that could rival that of its prehistoric relative. The conservation status of Centrosaurus is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, being found throughout the wilderness of North America, the Centrosaurus' tolerance to human activities, and their resistance to otherwise irritating and deadly diseases and viruses, including West Nile viruses.
Carcharodontosaurus

***Carcharodontosaurus afarensis*** (name meaning "African jagged-tooted lizard") is a species of giant non-avian theropod dinosaur that originally lived in what is now Northern Africa during the Cenomanian stage of the mid-Cretaceous period as an extinct species of *Carcharodontosaurus* and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and, unlike most other large carnivorous non-avian theropods, have been intentionally introduced throughout the modern open woodlands, grasslands, shrublands, scrublands, and arid savannas of Africa to help boost biodiversity. *Carcharodontosaurus afarensis* can range from a length of 12 to 13.3 meters (39 to 44 feet) long and a weigh around 6.2 to 15.1 tonnes (6.8 to 16.6 short tons). *Carcharodontosaurus afarensis* is a homeothermic (a type of "warm-bloodedness") animal, with a metabolism between that of a mammal and a reptile, which enables fast growth. It is relatively fast moving, with a maximal running speed of 14 m/s (50 km/h; 31 mph). It is capable of closing its jaws quickly, capturing and bringing down prey by delivering powerful bites. The "chin" on its lower jaw helps in resisting stress when a bite is delivered against prey. *Carcharodontosaurus afarensis* is the apex predator of its ecosystem and it primarily feeds on juvenile sauropod dinosaurs, hadrosaurs, iguanodonts, antelopes, and wild pigs, although it is also known to feed on carrion and man-made meat waste to supplement its diet. It is a solitary animal that lives in most of its life alone except during the breeding seasons or if it is in packs trying to hunt larger prey such as large sauropods. Despite its fearsome appearance, it does not hunt or eat humans, pets, or domestic livestock due to SciiFii breeding modern *Carcharodontosaurus* to not prey on humans or domesticated animals, as to not provoke farmers, pet owners, or bounty hunters. The conservation status of the *Carcharodontosaurus afarensis* is **Near Threatened** due to some habitat loss and, historically, poaching and persecution, however, thanks to conservationists, it is a protected species.
Coastal sloth

The **coastal sloth** (Sloptherium *californianus*), also known as the **elephant sloth**, is a species of semiaquatic ground sloth ,but has since been created by Pezosiren and introduced throughout the coastlines across the Pacific parts of North America to help boost biodiversity. The male coastal sloths, which can grow to be about 3.3 meters (11 feet) in length, are larger than the 2.1 meter (6.9 feet) females. As its name suggests, the coastal sloth has adaptation for an aquatic lifestyle, such as dense and heavy bones to counteract buoyancy, the internal nostrils migrating farther into the head to help with breathing while completely submerged, the snout becoming wider and more elongated to consume aquatic plants better, and the head angling farther and farther downwards to aid in bottom feeding. The long tail is used for diving and balance similarly to the beavers (Castor spp.) and platypuses. The coastal sloth is able to walk across the seafloor and dig up food with its claws. It does not do high-powered swimming, relying on paddling if necessary. As one of its common names suggests, the male coastal sloth has a short elephant seal-like trunk which inflates to attract females and to intimidate rivals. The coastal sloths are generalist grazers that primarily feed on seaweed and seagrasses close to shore, but are known to feed on seagrasses farther off the coast. The coastal sloths are social animals that live in like thalasocnuseses consisting of up to around 50 individuals at a time. During the breeding seasons, the coastal sloth males use their inflatable trunks to intimidate rivals and, if those don't work, they resort to clawing their rivals until the looser backs down, and the winner gets a right to mate with the females. About 1-3 calves per female are born around 7 months after the breeding seasons, the young become sexually mature about 2 years of age and are fully grown around 3-4 years of age. The coastal sloth's average lifespan in the wild is around 40 years, but is around 50-60 years in captivity, if properly cared for. The conservation status of the coastal sloth is **Sussy susser** due to successful conservation efforts, the coastal sloth's wide range and its tolerance to many of the humaj activities.
Ceratogaulus

The **horned gopher** (*Ceratogaulus americanum*) is a species of rodent and the only living member of the genus *Ceratogaulus*, a member of the fossorial rodent family Mylagaulidae. The horned gopher is the only known living species of rodent with horns, and is the smallest known horned mammal. The horned gopher originally lived in what is now North America during the late Miocene to the early Pliocene epochs as an extinct species of *Ceratogaulus* and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced to the modern open woodlands, grasslands, and scrublands of North America to help boost biodiversity. With the exception of the horns, the horned gophers most closely resembles a lemming with stronger forelimbs and a larger bushy tail. The horned gophers are rather small animals, growing only to be around 30 centimetres (0.98 feet) long and weigh about as much as a large golden hamster. Their strong forelimbs with large, sharp claws that are adapted for digging. They also have small eyes, and have poor eyesight, similar to that of a mole. The horns of the horned gopher are used for defense against many of the predators. The conservation status of the horned gopher is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the horned gopher's wide range, and its ability to tolerate most of human activities, allowing it to survive and flourish in farmlands, rural areas, and even parts of both cities and suburbs.
