Paradise swarmer

The **paradise swarmer** or **paradise moth** (*Irisapapio paradisa*) is a species of moth 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 to help boost biodiversity. The closest living relative of the paradise swarmer is the ailanthus silkmoth (*Samia cynthia*). There are two known subspecies of paradise swarmers, the northern paradise swarmer (*Irisapapio paradisa borealis*) and the southern paradise swarmer (*Irisapapio paradisa floridanus*). The northern paradise swamer has a wingspan about 15 centimeters on average, and the northern paradise swarmer caterpillar hibernates through the winter in a cocoon. The southern paradise swarmer subspecies is larger, growing to be about 5 centimeters with a 30 centimeter long wingspan, due to the fact that the southern subspecies has a longer period of time to feed before needing to pupate. The paradise swarmer, like butterflies, is a diurnal insect as an adult, but unlike butterfly caterpillars, the paradise swarmer caterpillars are nocturnal and only feed at night in order to avoid predators.The larvae are highly adaptable and can feed on many kinds of tree leaves and bushes. The paradise swarmer earns its name from the fact that all adult paradise swarmer moths emerge en mass during the late spring, and all adults court, mate and die within a few days. The adults don't have mouth parts and a digestive system, and die shortly after mating. Being large, very visible and on top of that a slow flier, this behavior overwhelms many aerial predators, and ensures that as many paradise swarmer moths as possible survive. There are so many paradise swarmers that the predators simply couldn't eat them all. The paradise swarmer's antennae are used to locate the opposite sexes, and females use them to find the suitable food for their larvae as well. The large colorful wings are used for courtship, and once a male and female has formed a pair they will court each other by spiralling upwards and then gliding downwards in unison, this dance is performed several times before copulation takes place. Individuals that are poor dancers won't be able to find a mate. The long tails on the hindwings spiral around as the paradise swarmer flies, and individuals with the longest tails are preferred as partners. The females lay large masses of eggs, however, with so many insect-eating predators found in North America (both natural and SciiFii's (re)creations), only a small percentage of eggs survive into adulthood, avoiding the overpopulation problems. Since the swarming of the paradise swarmers are so predictable and occurs throughout North America, there's a holiday called **Swarming Day**, which celebrates the event. The conservation status of the paradise swarmer is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the paradise swarmer's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
Parabalaenoptera

The **false gray whale** (*Parabalaenoptera pacifica*) is a species of baleen whale that originally lived in what is now Marin County, California, during the Late Miocene as an extinct species, *Parabalaenoptera baulinensis*, and the genus itself was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced throughout the northern and central portion of the Pacific Ocean to help boost biodiversity. The false gray whale is a large whale, growing to be about the size of a true gray whale (*Eschrichtius robustus*). The false gray whale feeds mainly on benthic crustaceans, which it eats by turning on its side and scooping up sediments from the sea floor. This unique feeding selection makes false gray whales one of the most strongly reliant on coastal waters among baleen whales. It is classified as a baleen whale and has baleen, or whalebone, which acts like a sieve, to capture small sea animals, including amphipods taken in along with sand, water and other material. The gestation period for false gray whales is approximately 13 1⁄2 months, with females giving birth every one to three years. In the latter half of the pregnancy, the fetus experiences a rapid growth in length and mass. Similar to the narrow breeding season, most calves are born within a six-week time period in mid January. The calf is born tail first, and measures about 14–16 ft in length, and a weight of 2,000 lbs. Females lactate for approximately seven months following birth, at which point calves are weaned and maternal care begins to decrease. The shallow lagoon waters in which false gray whales reproduce protects the newborn from sharks and orcas. The conservation status of the false gray whale is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts and the false gray whale's wide range.
Psittacoviraptor

The **domestic parrot dinosaur** (*Psittacoviraptor domesticus*) is a species of non-avian oviraptorosaur that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and sold as pets. In terms of behaviour and care, domestic parrot dinosaurs are similar to macaws, being very demanding and affectionate frugivores. They measure around 11/2 feet from head to tail.
Rahonavis

***Rahonavis aero***, also known as the **flying goblin**, is a species of bird-like non-avian theropod that originally lived from the Late Cretaceous (Maastrichtian, about 70 mya) of what is now northwestern Madagascar as an extinct species, *Rahonavis ostromi*, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii. *Rahonavis aero* is a small predator, at about 70 centimetres (2.3 feet) long, with the typical *Velociraptor*-like raised sickle claw on the second toe. *Rahonavis aero* feeds primarily on insects, spiders, and smaller vertebrates. *Rahonavis aero* is a very vocal animal that often communicates by chirping and making higher-pitched squawks than those of parrots, and is unique among the non-avian theropods for its natural ability to mimic sounds around its environment, akin to those of parrots, mynas, and lyrebirds, being able to mimic bird songs, mammalian chirps, bellows and roars of larger animals, man-made objects, and human speech. *Rahonavis aero* is capable of true powered flight, more capable of flying than *Archaeopteryx* due to its thicker, stronger clawed wings with larger feathers, although it is not as graceful in flying as modern-styled birds. *Rahonavis aero* is a rather social animal that has a similar social lifestyle to those of crows and ravens, often living in large flocks, although their flocks aren't as large, usually numbering at around 25-50 at a time. Unlike most other non-avian maniraptorians, *Rahonavis aero* has been deliberately introduced throughout the rainforests, wetlands, forests, and open woodlands across Madagascar to help boost biodiversity, and *Rahonavis aero* is a protected species in that country. However, there are *Rahonavis aero* that have been accidentally introduced to throughout Florida, most likely due to accidental pet releases.
Palaeotragus

The **plains okapi** (*Palaeotragus major*, name meaning "greater ancient goat"), also known as the **Afroeurasian okapi**, is a species of very large, primitive, okapi-like giraffid, not an okapi despite its appearance, that originally lived from the Miocene of Africa and Eurasia as several extinct species, *Palaeotragus primaevus* and *Palaeotragus germaini*, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced throughout the modern open woodlands, grasslands, shrublands, and scrublands across both Africa and Eurasia to help boost biodiversity. The plains okapi is distinguished from true okapis by having more zebra-like leg coloration than those of true okapis, as well as by having a slightly longer neck and is larger in size, about 9.8 feet (3 meters) tall at the shoulders. In life, it resembles very much like a cross between a short-necked giraffe and a gargantuan okapi. Like long-necked giraffes (*Giraffa*), the plains okapi primarily feeds on leaves from the trees, although due to its shorter neck, it feeds on different kinds of trees than what long-necked giraffes feed on. The plains okapi is a solitary animal that spends throughout most of its life alone except during the breeding seasons. The conservation status of the plains okapi is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts and the plains okapi's wide range.
Plesiosaurus

***Plesiosaurus magnificens*** is a species of large marine sauropterygian reptile that originally lived in the Lias of England during the early part of the Jurassic Period as an extinct species, *Plesiosaurus dolichodeirus*, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and, unlike most plesiosaurs, have been intentionally introduced throughout the world's oceans to help boost biodiversity. *Plesiosaurus magnificens* is distinguishable by its small head, long and slender neck, broad turtle-like body, a short tail with a fin, and two pairs of large, elongated paddles. It lends its name to the order Plesiosauria, of which it is an primitive, but fairly typical member. Plesiosaurus is a moderately sized plesiosaur that grows on average to a length of about 3.5 metres (11 feet) and weigh 2 tons in most individuals. Its head is weak and its teeth preclude any grappling with prey, so it only feeds on small, soft-bodied animals such as squid and shoaling fish. It uses its long, intermeshing teeth to strain small prey from the water, as well as to sift through sediment for buried animals. It is a social animal that lives in pods of up to around 20 individuals at a time, and, unlike native modern non-avian reptiles, it is warm-blooded animal so it is very active. To keep itself warm in cool oceans, it has blubber in its body to protect itself against the cold temperatures. The conservation status of *Plesiosaurus magnificens* is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the animal's wide range and its tolerance to most of human activities.
Palaeophis

The **giant sea snake** (*Palaeophis modernus*, name meaning "modern ancient snake") is a species of marine snake that originally lived in what is now Europe and North America during the Cretaceous period to the Eocene epoch, approximately from 70.6 to 33.9 million years ago, as various extinct *Palaeophis* species and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced to the modern Pacific and Atlantic coastlines of Eurasia and North America to help boost biodiversity. Despite its name, it is not closely related to the modern sea snakes, but is instead the only living member of the snake family Palaeophiidae. The giant sea snake comes in more than 30 subspecies, ranging from the smallest subspecies growing around 1.3 metres in length, while the largest subspecies can grow be about 9 meters (29.5 ft) in length, making it one of the largest known snakes. Unlike true sea snakes, giant sea snakes are nonvenomous and instead rely on constricting its prey, much like anacondas, boas, and pythons. The giant sea snakes are specialised aquatic animals, with each subspecies filling their own ecological niches different from one another. The giant sea snake is warm-blooded, unlike most snakes, so it has a considerably faster metabolism and growth rate than other snakes. The giant sea snakes are solitary animals in most of their lives except during breeding seasons, and the female giant sea snakes lay around 30 eggs at a time and abandons them, in a manner similar to sea turtles, only for the giant sea snake hatchlings eggs to hatch out and swim into the sea. The conservation status of all known subspecies of giant sea snakes is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the giant sea snake's wide range, and its tolerance to most of human activities, including pollution, the giant sea snake also has the ability to adapt to life in the coastal cities and suburbs.
Prorastomus

The **walking sea cow** (*Prorastomus sirenoides*) is a terrestrial ancestor of manatees and dugongs that originally lived in what is now Jamaica during the Eocene. It was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced to the modern Jamaican coasts, to help boost the declining biodiversity. It is around five feet long and lived on soft plants. The conservation status of the walking sea cow is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts.
Purple polar parrot

The **purple polar parrot** (*Antarctopsittacus polaris*), also known as the **Antarctic parrot** and simply the **polar parrot**, is a species of parrot native to the Antarctic islands that originally did not exist, but is since created by SciiFii. The purple polar parrot is named for its double layer of grayish-purple feathers which are perfect for insulation from harsh winters in cold climates. The closest living relative of the purple polar parrot is the monk parakeet of South America. Since no nuts and fruits are available in the Antarctic circle, they feed primarily on grass seeds, clams, and oysters, which is why they have a different diet from most other parrots. The purple polar parrot lives in gregarious flocks of up to around 300 individuals at a time, and nests in 30-75 foot long burrows that are dug by the females and make nests out of dry grasses to raise their young. The purple polar parrots make such long burrows to protect their eggs and chicks against outside elements such as freezing temperatures. The conservation status of the purple polar parrot is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts and the purple polar parrot's wide range.
Protoceratops V2

***Protoceratops bovinus*** is a species of herbivorous orange-brown sheep-sized *Protoceratops* that originally lived in Mongolia and China as an extinct species of *Protoceratops* and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced throughout Eurasia and North America to help boost biodiversity. Unlike advanced ceratopsians, it is a much smaller quadrupedal creature that lack well-developed horns and retain some basal traits not seen in more advanced genera. *Protoceratops bovinus* has a large neck frill which is used as a display site to impress other members of the species. Unlike the first species of *Protoceratops* created by SciiFii, it is almost completely herbivorous and mainly feeds on leaves, fruits, nuts, seeds, roots, tubers, cycads, ferns, and horsetails, but can also feed on carrion and insects to supplement its diet. *Protoceratops bovinus* is a social herd-dwelling animal that can live in massive herds up to around 500 at a time, giving it the nickname "the sheep of the Cretaceous/Mesozoic". The conservation status of the *Protoceratops bovinus* is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts and its wide range across North America.
Parapontoporia

The **long-snouted dolphin** (*Parapontoporia marinus*) is a species of dolphin that originally lived off the Californian coast from the Late Miocene until the Pliocene as an extinct species of *Parapontoporia* and the genus itself was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced throughout the Californian Great Barrier Reef to help boost biodiversity, although it is also found in the coastal parts of Mexico, California, and Oregon, and is tolerant to freshwater that it can even be found in many freshwater rivers in the coastal regions. The closest living relative of the long-snouted dolphin is the baiji (*Lipotes vexillifer*). In general appearance, the long-snouted dolphin resembles a baiji in shape and build, but is larger in size, reaching a length on average of 3 metres (9.8 feet). The long-snouted dolphin feeds primarily on benthic mollusks and small fish, but it is known to occasionally feed on crustaceans such as crabs and shrimp. The long-snouted dolphin is a social animal that lives in pods consisting of up to around 20 individuals at a time. The conservation status of the long-snouted dolphin is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts and the long-snouted dolphin's wide range.
Prong ox

The **prong-ox** (*Antilocapra giganteus* or *Gigantilocapra giganteus*) is the species of pronghorn that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the open woodlands, grasslands, shrublands, scrublands, deserts, and taiga habitats across North America to help boost biodiversity. The prong-ox is the largest species of pronghorn antelope and is also the heaviest species; it reaches weights of 700-1,000 pounds. Males, known as jims, tend to be larger than females, known as janes. The horns of a prong-ox jim can reach 2-3 feet in length, and the horns of the prong-ox are black in color and compose of a permanent, bony interior knob covered by a keratinous sheath, which is shed annually like deer antlers are. The horns are Lyre-shaped, which curve back and slightly inward near the conical tips, each with one broad, short prong that juts forward and slightly upward, usually halfway from the base of the horn. They are used in male competitions during the rut, with jims using thrusts and counter-thrusts to try to gore their opponents. Like other pronghorn species, they have excellent, binocular-like eyesight, and can spot movements from as far away as 5 miles in broaddaylight. However, they have difficulty in seeing stationary things, and their sight-distance is greatly reduced in the pitch-black of nighttime. The prong-ox has a brown colored coat when fully grown. The prong-ox is similar in build and physiology to the eland antelopes of Africa, and occupies a similar niche to the elands. The prong-ox mainly feeds on leaves, shrubs, grasses, forbs, and sedges. Prong-oxen can go without drinking water for over three days, allowing them to fair well in most North American desert regions. Prong-ox are generally peaceful herbivores, and will feed alongside creatures like horses, bison, capybaras, elk, camels, peccaries, deer, and elephants, and among other herbivores. Prong-ox enter the rut in the Fall, when jims form harems and fight challengers. After a 6 month gestation, janes give birth to calves. after birth, calves can run with their parents within 2 hours. Calves are weened at 5 months of age. At the age of 3 years, the calves set out on their own. Prong-ox can live as long as 25 years in the wild. Their main predator is the American lion, followed by the dire wolf, scimitar cat, and saber-tooth cat, with fawns being prey for jaguars, grizzlies, cougars, and short-faced bears. During calving season, newborns are at risk to predation from coyotes, bears, American cheetahs, red wolves, eagles, and grey wolves. There are documented cases of alligators killing prong-oxen. Like other pronghorns, prong-oxen are fast sprinters; this massive antelope can reach speeds of 50 mph, more than enough needed to outrun their predators, who often employ nocturnal ambush tactics to catch the prong-ox. The conservation status of the prong-oxen is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the prong-oxen's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
Paradolichopithecus

The **walking macaque** (*Paradolichopithecus europeansis*), also known as the **walking monkey**, is a species of cercopithecine monkey, most closely related to macaques, that originally lived in Eurasia during the late Pliocene and early Pleistocene as an extinct species of *Paradolichopithecus* and was once extinct, but the genus itself has since been brought back from extinction and reintroduced throughout the modern wetlands, forests, open woodlands, grasslands, shrublands, and scrublands across Eurasia to help boost biodiversity. The walking macaque can range in weight from 30 to 60 kilograms, although it usually grows to be about as large as the biggest mandrills (*Mandrillus sphinx*). The walking macaque has a head similar in shape to a baboon's head, but its poscranial skeleton has some very intriguing traits that allows a different locomotion, with some of them resembling *Australopithecus*, which allows the walking macaque to walk bipedally a lot more than other monkeys, and that may be an example of convergent evolution. The arms of the walking macaque have greater mobility at the elbow than those of other monkeys, allowing the walking macaque to carry objects around and even to fight predators and, occasionally, rival members of its species. The walking macaque is an omnivore that primarily feeds on insects, small vertebrates, eggs, carrion, fruits, nuts, seeds, roots, shoots, tubers, and bulbs. The walking macaques are social animals that can live in troops consisting of up to around 150 individuals at a time. The conservation status of the walking macaque is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the walking macaque's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
Pyrenean ibex

The **Pyrenean ibex** , **bucardo**, **herc**, or **bouquetin** (*Capra pyrenaica pyrenaica*) is an Pyrenees subspecies of Iberian ibex. Pyrenean ibexes were once extinct since 2000, with a failed revival in 2003, but have since been gratefully brought back from extinction by SciiFii before reintroducing them back to Spain and France, including Andorra. The Pyrenean ibex has short hair which varies according to seasons. During the summer, its hair is short, and in winter, the hair grows longer and thicker. The hair on the ibex's neck remain long through all seasons. Male and female ibex can be distinguished due to color, fur, and horn differences. The male is a faded grayish brown during the summer, and they are decorated with black in several places on the body such as the mane, forelegs, and forehead. In the winter, the ibex is less colorful. The male transforms from a greyish brown to a dull grey and where the spots were once black, it become dull and faded. The female ibex, though, can be mistaken for a deer since its coat is brown throughout the summer. Unlike the male , a female lacks black coloring. Young ibex are colored like the female for the first year of life. The males have large, thick horns, curving outwards and backwards, then outwards and downwards, then inwards and upwards. The surface of the horn is ridged, and the ridges developing progressively with age. The ridges each represent a year, so the total correspond to the ibex's age. The female has short, cylindrical horns. Pyrenean ibex feeds on vegetation such as grasses and herbs. Pyrenean ibex migrate according to seasons. In spring, the ibex migrate to more elevated parts of mountains where females and males mate. In spring, females normally separate from the males, so they can give birth in more isolated areas. Kids are typically born during May, usually singularly. During the winter, the ibex migrate to valleys that are not covered in snow. These valleys allow them to eat regardless of the change in season. The conservation status of the Pyrenean ibex is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts.
Parasaurolophus V1

***Parasaurolophus californii*** (name meaning "California near crested lizard") is a species of herbivorous ornithopod dinosaur that originally lived in what is now North America and possibly Asia during the Late Cretaceous Period, about 76.5–73 million years ago and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and now lives in the **Cretaceous Safari** tour in **Cretaceous Park** located at Sacramento, California.

*Parasaurolophus californii* is a herbivore, mainly feeding on fruits, leaves, cycads, ferns, and horsetails, that walks both as a biped and as a quadruped. It is a hadrosaurid, part of a diverse family of Cretaceous dinosaurs known for their range of bizarre head adornments. This species is known for its large, elaborate cranial crest, which at its largest forms a long curved tube projecting upwards and back from the skull. *Charonosaurus* from China, which may be its closest relative, has a similar skull and a similar crest. Its crest is used for visual recognition of both species and sex, acoustic resonance, and thermoregulation. It is a herd-dwelling animal and lives in groups up to about 19 at a time.
Prenoceratops

***Prenoceratops americanum***, (meaning "bent or prone-horned face of America") is a species of ceratopsian dinosaur that originally lived from the Late Cretaceous Period in what is now the present-day U.S. state of Montana, in Campanian age rock layers that have been dated to 74.3 million years ago, as an extinct species, *Prenoceratops pieganensis*, and that genus was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction and, like many ceratopsians, have been introduced to the modern rainforests, swamps, forests, and open woodlands across North America to help boost biodiversity. It is a fully quadrupedal animal that relies on speed to escape from danger. Like most ceratopsids, *Prenoceratops americanum* is a herbivore, primarily feeding on leaves, fruits, nuts, seeds, ferns, cycads and conifers. It uses its sharp ceratopsian beak to bite off the leaves or needles. The way this animal feeds is more similar to the way rodents feed rather than how birds feed, as a result of convergent evolution. At around 1.5-2 meters long (~5′-6’6″), it is very similar to its relative, *Leptoceratops*, but has a slightly lower, more sloping shape to its skull. The conservation status of the *Prenoceratops americanum* is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, its wide range across North America, and its tolerance to most of human activities, including being able to adapt to life in parts of the cities and suburbs.
Radiodactylus

***Radiodactylus major*** is a species of non-azhdarchid azhdarchoid pterosaur that originally lived from the Early Cretaceous period of what is now Texas, southern United States, as an extinct species, ***Radiodactylus langstoni***, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii. *Radiodactylus major* is a relatively small pterosaur, with the wingspan of only 5 feet (1.5 meters) long. Like azhdarchids, it has a long toothless bill and hunts smaller prey in terrestrial as well as near-shore environments. It is a solitary animal that lives in most of its life alone except during the breeding seasons. *Radiodactylus major* is found throughout North America after the SciiFii Pterosaur Incident in New York City, 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. *Radiodactylus major* 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.
Peltephilus

The **horned armadillo** (*Peltephilus argentinus*) is a species of dog-sized, armadillo xenarthran mammal which originally lived in Argentina during the Oligocene epoch through the Miocene epoch as an extinct species of *Peltephilus* 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 Argentina to help boost biodiversity. Notably, the scutes on its head are so developed that they form horns, which are normally used for protection against predators and by males to fight other males during mating seasons. Aside from the horned gophers of North America, it is the only known fossorial horned mammal. It is an omnivore that mainly feeds on roots, tubers, bulbs, seeds, insects, and carrion. The conservation status of the horned armadillo is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts and the horned armadillo's wide range.
Panthera leo fossilis

*Not to be confused with the Eurasian cave lion, which is sometimes known simply as the **European lion**.*

   The **European lion** (*Panthera leo fossilis*), also known as the **fossil lion** (after being originally first discovered as fossils), is a subspecies of lion (*Panthera leo*) that originally lived in mainland Europe, western Asia, and Great Britain during the Upper Pleistocene, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and reintroduced throughout its former range to help boost biodiversity. The European lion is larger than either African or Asian lions, reaching lengths of about 8.2 feet (2.5 meters), the shoulder height of 4.4 feet (135 centimeters) in height, and weighing around 350-400 kilograms, with the ones living in Siberia being somewhat larger than the European lions of central or western Europe. European lions spend much of their time resting; they are inactive for about twenty hours per day. Although European lions can be active at any time, their activity generally peaks after dusk with a period of socialising, grooming and defecating. Intermittent bursts of activity continue until dawn, when hunting most often takes place. They spend an average of two hours a day walking and fifty minutes eating. The European lion is a generalist hypercarnivore and is considered to be both an apex and keystone predator due to its wide prey spectrum. Its prey consists mainly of mammals—particularly ungulates—weighing 190–550 kg (420–1,210 lb) with a preference for deer, wild horses, bison, aurochs, chalicotheres, and giraffids. European lions also hunt wild boars (*Sus scrofa*) and European bushpigs (*Potamochoerus magnus*) depending on availability, although the species is below the preferred weight range. Like other lion subspecies, the European lion is a social animal that lives in large packs known as prides. The conservation status of the European lion is **Near Threatened** due to slight habitat loss and historic poaching, however, thanks to the conservationists, the European lion is a protected species.
Pelecanimimus

***Pelecanimimus larum*** (name meaning "seagull-pelican mimic") is a species of basal ("primitive") ornithomimosaurian dinosaur that originally lived from the Early Cretaceous of Spain as an extinct species, *Pelecanimimus polyodon*, and the genus itself was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and now lives through many of the zoos and safari parks due to the zoo and safari park owners commissioning SciiFii to keep some of the de-extincted species. *Pelecanimimus larum* is a small ornithomimosaur, at about 1.9–2.5 meters (6.2–8.2 feet) and 17-25 kg (37-55 lbs). Its head is unusually long and narrow, with a maximum length of about 4.5 times its maximum height. *Pelecanimimus larum* is notable for possessing more teeth than any other member of the Ornithomimosauria (or any other theropod), most of which are toothless. *Pelecanimimus larum* behaves very similarly to a crane, wading out in lakes or ponds using its claws and teeth to capture fish and then storing them in its skin flap on its throat, similarly to pelicans. Unlike most "natural" large non-avian dinosaurs, *Pelecanimimus larum* is capable of flight, although it prefers walking over flying due to being a specialized runner and due to having smaller wings than most flying animals, based on the studies on the original species speculated by Gregory S. Paul. *Pelecanimimus larum* is a rather social animal that lives in flocks usually consisting of up to around 20 individuals at a time.
Platypterygius

***Platypterygius atlanticus*** is a species of ichthyosaur of the family Ophthalmosauridae that originally lived in the seas during the Early Cretaceous all the way to the earliest Late Cretaceous as several extinct species of *Platypterygius* and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and, unlike most other Mesozoic-type marine reptiles, have been intentionally introduced throughout the modern world's oceans to help boost biodiversity. *Platypterygius atlanticus* is a rather large ichthyosaur, usually growing to be about 7 metres (23 feet) in length on average and weighing almost as much as an orca. There are more digits in its front flippers than is usual in ichthyosaurs; they are tightly bound in rows, giving a broad, flat appearance. This unusual characteristic gives the genus its name, meaning 'flat wing.' Furthermore, some of the wrist bones have disappeared entirely in this genus. Unlike most other ichthyosaurs, *Platypterygius atlanticus* is entirely deaf due to the specializations in its skull. Despite this, *Platypterygius atlanticus* can navigate its way around with its extremely large, sensitive eyes and a strong sense of smell. Unlike most ichthyosaurs, *Platypterygius atlanticus* is an apex predator, similar to orcas, and can feed on fish, squid, sea turtles, seabirds, smaller fully-aquatic reptiles, small marine mammals, and even carrion. It is a solitary animal that prefers to spend throughout most of its life alone except during the breeding seasons. The conservation status of *Platypterygius atlanticus* is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts and the animal's wide range.
Pygmy turtle dove

The **pygmy turtle dove** (*Nanostreptopelia passera*), also known as the **Eurasian diamond dove** and the **American diamond dove**, is a species of pigeon that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the rainforests, wetlands, forests, open woodlands, grasslands, shrublands, scrublands, and deserts across Eurasia and North America to help boost biodiversity. The closest living relative of the pygmy turtle dove is the band-tailed pigeon (*Patagioenas fasciata*). The pygmy turtle dove is a small pigeon with a length of 19 to 21 centimeters or 9 to 11 inches. Regardless of sex, both have white spots and black edges on their wings, red eyes and reddish-orange eye-rings. The sexes look similar except the female's eye ring is less vivid and has more of a brown colour to the plumage. The male's head, neck, and breast are light blue. The bill is a dark grey colour. The abdomen is a creamy colour while the back and tail is a brown-grey colour. The legs and feet are pink. The juveniles have a light grey bill; the iris and eye ring is fawn in colour; the feet and legs are grey; the breast is grey and does not possess any white spots on their wings. Regardless of its astoundingly small size (weighing only about 35 grams), it has a great tolerance to high heat and cold levels due to adaptations in body temperature, metabolism, respiration, water balance, and behaviour. The pygmy turtle dove is often seen on the ground, where it runs with a waddling gait. Its flight is strong, direct, and sometimes undulating. The wings can make a whistling "frrr" noise when flying. Pygmy turtle doves tend to be seen in pairs or small groups feeding off the ground. They feed off seed mostly from grasses. They will also eat ants. The pygmy turtle doves tend to breed after rain in more arid areas, but breeds during the spring in more humid and cooler environments. Nests are usually built from interwoven grasses and/or twigs, and are fragile in construction. Two or three white eggs are usually laid and incubated for 13 to 14 days. Their chicks are fast to grow, and are usually fully feathered and flying by two weeks. They are known to have a variety of calls. The calls sound mournful, slow and have a soft, pleasant falsetto quality to them. Two calls consist of two long coos followed by a pause and then a long, short and long coo. Sometimes they call two long coos. The alarm coo consists of a few short but loud coos. The conservation status of the pygmy turtle dove is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the pygmy turtle dove's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
Pteranodon

***Pteranodon adohomo*** (name meaning *toothless wing created by man*) is a species of large fish-eating pterosaur that includes some of the largest known flying reptiles, with wingspans over 7 meters (23 feet). They once lived during the late Cretaceous geological period of North America in present-day Kansas, Alabama, Nebraska, Wyoming, and South Dakota, but they now exist throughout the modern day coastlines of North America and Eurasia (in winter, most of the inland areas throughout North America and Eurasia) thanks to SciiFii bringing them back from extinction. They are normally social animals that can live in large flocks up to about 250 in a single area, and they mainly feed on small and large schooling fish such as tuna, salmon, and among others, but can also feed on carrion and man-made food made of meat, making them a sort of pterosaurian version of seagulls. *Pteranodon adohomo* is also a common sight in zoos and safari parks, including **Cretaceous Park**.
Raboon

The **raboon** (*Carnopapio grandis*) is a species of cercopithecine Old World monkey, most closely related to the baboons, that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the tropical open woodlands, grasslands, shrublands, and scrublands across Africa to help boost biodiversity. The raboon is one of the largest species of monkeys, standing about 2.3 meters (7.5 feet) high at the hips and reaches the length of 4.9 meters (16.0 feet) in length. The raboon is a bipedal animal, unlike most monkey, using its long, thick tail for balancing its body. In physical form the raboon bears a distinct resemblance to the carnivorous, non-avian theropod dinosaurs. The raboon is a massive predator that preys on many of the slow-moving herbivores, and is also a scavenger that feeds on carrion. The raboon is a solitary animal throughout its life except during the breeding seasons. The gestation period is around 2-3 months on average, and the raboon young are cared for by their mothers for 2 years until they are independent from their parents. The raboon reaches sexual maturity at the age of 3 years, and the raboon has an average lifespan of between 20 and 30 years. The conservation status of the raboon is **Vulnerable** due to some habitat loss and historic poaching, however, thanks to the conservationists, the raboon is a protected species.
Promerycochoerus

The **pig-nosed oreodont** (*Promerycochoerus tapirustrum*), also known as the **tapir-nosed oreodont**, is a species of herbivorous browsing oreodont found across the riverbanks, ponds, swamps, and marshlands of North America. It was once extinct since the Early Miocene as an extinct species of *Promerycochoerus*, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced to the humid habitats of North America to help boost biodiversity. The pig-nosed oreodont is usually around 1 meter (3 feet 4 inches) long when fully grown, and is amphibious, as it possesses an elongated, barrel-shaped body and short limbs that are typical adaptations found in other semi-aquatic mammals. It has a long face with a short, retractable, tapir-like trunk ending with pig-like nostrils, hence its name, and can rectract to give it a trunk-less appearance. It fills the similar ecological niche to native North and South American tapir species. It is a solitary animal in most of its life except during breeding seasons. The conservation status of the pig-nosed oreodont is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the pig-nosed oreodont's wide natural range and its tolerance to most of human activities.
Placodus

***Placodus imperator*** (name meaning “emperor flat tooth”) is a species of placodont reptile that originally lived from the Middle Triassic period as two extinct species, *Placodus gigas* and *Placodus inexpectatus*, and the genus itself was once extinct, but has ever since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and now lives in the **Triassic Dinosaurs** section of **Cretaceous Park** located at Sacramento, California. *Placodus imperator* is recognizable by its stocky body with a long tail, and measures 2 metres (6.6 feet) long on average. It has a short neck and a heavy skull. *Placodus imperator* is not as well adapted to aquatic life as more advanced reptile groups, like the closely related plesiosaurs. Its flattened tail and short legs, which ends in webbed feet, are its main means of propulsion in the water. The parietal eye on top of the head of *Placodus imperator* assists the animal with orientation, rather than its vision, and its presence is regarded as a primitive characteristic. The vertebral processes of *Placodus imperator* dove-tails into each other and are firmly connected, so that the torso is rigid. The abdomen is covered in a special armor formed of the bent, right-angled ribs. Equipped with dense bones, heavy belly ribs, and a row of bony knobs above the backbone, *Placodus imperator* is a heavily built and negatively buoyant creature that has no trouble staying on the seafloor to feed. This body armor offers protection from predators as well, but this hampers its mobility on land, making*Placodus imperator* slow and clumsy out of the water. *Placodus imperator* is specialized for a durophagous diet of shellfish, such as bivalves. Its chisel-like incisors protrude from the Wikipedia:Anterior:anterior margin of the snout, and are used to pluck hard-shelled mollusks, brachiopods, and crustaceans from the substrate. The animal's back teeth are flat and broad, which helps it crush its shellfish prey. It is normally a solitary animal that only tries to interact with others of its own species during mating seasons. The lifecycle of the *Placodus imperator* is very similar to a gharial and a wading bird.
Rabbalope

The **rabbalope** (*Ungulagus gazella*) is a species of large deer-sized lagomorph that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the rainforests, wetlands, forests, and open woodlands across Africa to help boost biodiversity. The rabbalope fills the similar ecological niche to the gazelles found in the open grasslands. The rabbalope is entirely herbivorous and primarily feeds on grasses, leaves, nuts, fruits, and roots. The rabbalope is a solitary animal that prefers to live in most of its life alone except during the breeding seasons. The conservation status of the rabbalope is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the rabbalope's wide range, and its tolerance to most of human activities, including being able to adapt to life in parts of cities and suburbs.
Platecarpus

***Platecarpus marinus*** (name meaning "marine flat wrist") is a species of aquatic lizard belonging to the mosasaur family of the Plioplatecarpini tribe that originally lived in the United States and possibly in Belgium and Africa around 84–81 million years ago during the middle Santonian to early Campanian of the Late Cretaceous period as an extinct species of *Platecarpus* and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii. It was originally going to be showcased at **Cretaceous Park**, unfortunately, ships that contained tanks which had 13 *Platecarpus marinus* had crashed into rocky seafloors near the coast of Oregon and sank, letting the 10 surviving *Platecarpus marinus* loose into the modern Pacific Ocean. *Platecarpus marinus* is a carnivore that primarily feeds on moderate-sized fish, squid, and ammonites. *Platecarpus marinus* is a rather average-sized mosasaur, growing on average of about 14 feet (4.3 meters) in length. It has a high-profile tail fluke like other mosasaurs, showing that it and other mosasaurs do not have an eel-like swimming method, but are more powerful, fast swimmers similar to sharks. Like other mosasaurs, *Platecarpus marinus* has a forked tongue similar to monitor lizards and has a same function, smelling for its food sources. The conservation status of *Platecarpus marinus* is **Least Concern** due to the species' wide range and abundant source of food, as well as the species' tolerance to many of the human activities.
Paradise parrot

The **paradise parrot** (*Psephotellus pulcherrimus*) is a colourful, medium-sized species of parrot native to the grassy woodlands of the Queensland, New South Wales border area of eastern Australia. It was once extinct since the late 1920s and early 1930s, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and reintroduced to the grassy woodlands of Australia to help boost biodiversity. The paradise parrot's plumage is extraordinarily colourful, even by parrot standards, a mixture of turquoise, aqua, scarlet, black and brown. The tail is almost the same length as the body, unusual for a bird that, although a rapid, undulating flyer, usually spends almost all of its time on the ground. It is known to live in pairs or small family groups, making their nests in hollowed-out termite mounds, often at or near ground level, and feeding almost exclusively on grass seeds. The conservation status of the paradise parrot is **Vulnerable** due to some habitat loss by overgrazing and, historically, poaching and invasive species, however, thanks to conservationists, the non-native predators and egg-eating mammals such as brown rats, black rats, house mice, feral pigs, foxes, feral cats, and among others have been eradicated, allowing natives like paradise parrots to recover over time.
Paleoparadoxia

The **greater sea-hippo** (***Paleoparadoxia pacificus***) is a species of large, herbivorous aquatic mammals that originally lived in the northern Pacific coastal region during the Miocene epoch (20 to 10 million years ago), from the waters of Japan (Tsuyama and Yanagawa), to Alaska in the north, to Baja California, Mexico, as an extinct species of *Paleoparadoxia*, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced to the modern tropical, subtropical, temperate, and boreal coastlines across the Pacific parts of North America and Eurasia. The greater sea-hippo is about 2.2 meters (7 feet 3 inches) long and weigh almost a ton when fully grown. It primarily feeds on seaweeds and sea grasses. The jaws and the angle of the teeth resemble a backhoe bucket. Its bulky body is well adapted for swimming and underwater foraging. The greater sea-hippos are a fully marine mammal like their relatives, the sirenians, spending most of their lives walking across the sea bottom with their webbed limbs with hoofed toes, very much like marine equivalent of hippos. Much like sirenians such as dugongs, the greater sea-hippos prefers to live in deep, offshore waters, where many tall and large aquatic marine vegetation lives in. If they're stranded on land, it is clear that they resemble seals, but on further inspection they're actually a sea-hippo, and unlike seals, since they're completely adapted to life in the sea and they're unable to move on their own on land, much like manatees and dugongs, and they would die due to dehydration and due to its body collapsing over time without help of people bringing them back to the water. The conservation status of the greater sea-hippo is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts and the greater sea-hippo's wide range.
