Edmontonia

***Edmontonia modernus*** (name meaning "from modern Edmonton Formation") is an armoured dinosaur, part of the nodosaur family that originally came from the Late Cretaceous Period in what is now the Edmonton Formation (now the Horseshoe Canyon Formation in Canada), 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.

*Edmontonia modernus* is a bulky, broad and tank-like solitary herbivore that mainly feeds on fruits, leaves, shrubs, nuts, cycads, ferns, and horsetails, but can occasionally feed on insects to supplement its diet or when plant food is scarce. It can grow to be about 6.6 metres (22 feet) in length and weigh about 2.7 tons. The spikes of *Edmontonia modernus* are used between males in contests of strength to defend territory or gain mates, they are also used for intimidating predators and for active self-defense against predators. The female *Edmontonia modernus* lays around 9-14 eggs about 3-4 months after mating, the eggs hatch around 2-3 months after being laid, and the mothers care for their hatchlings until they're sub-adults, when they are old enough to fend for themselves.
Diictodon

The **common dicy** (*Diictodon geomysimito*), or known simply as the **dicy**, is a species of non-mammal therapsid that originally lived in what is now Africa and Asia during the Late Permian as an extinct species of *diictodon* and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii. This small herbivorous animal was originally one of the most successful synapsids in the Permian period, and is now among the most successful of the non-mammal synapsids of modern times. Common dicies have disproportionally large heads that end in a horny beak. Both males and females have a pair of tusks sticking out from the upper jaw, with those of the male being slightly larger. The common dicy has strong arms and legs, as wells as 5 sharp claws on each hand, and has keen senses of smell and sight. Its gait is similar to the 'high walk' of crocodiles. Their jaws are also simplified, with some of the bones dedicated instead to hearing, a key sign of mammalian adaptation. The common dicy also has many adaptations for digging, such as highly developed muscles, a cylindrical body, and wide hands. As a therapsid, it shares many features with mammals. Most noticeably, they make burrows into the earth. These burrows can be up to 1.5 metres (4.9 ft) deep. The common dicy has a similar lifestyle to and lives like the native modern gopher. The common dicy burrows are used to escape the heat of the hot deserts, and it is gregarious lifestyle, however, it does not live in colonies. Like all natural dicynodonts, common dicies are herbivorous. They use their beaks to break off pieces of the sparse desert shrubs. Like native modern desert animals, it has an unusually efficient digestive system, due to the lack of nutrients present in desert plants. As burrowing animals, they usually feed off of water-rich plant tubers. The groups of common dicies are found in Paleozoic Park located in Downey, California, however, there are feral common dicies living in California, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Utah, and Mexico, which are flourishing and breeding, due to some careless pet owners releasing some pet common dicies.
Eastern moa

The **eastern moa** (*Emeus crassus*) is a species of moa of the order Dinornithiformes and the only living member of the family, Emeidae, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and reintroduced to South Island, New Zealand, to help boost biodiversity. The female eastern moas are 15-25% larger than males. This phenomenon, reverse size dimorphism, is not uncommon amongst ratites, being also very pronounced in kiwis. The eastern moa is of average size, standing 1.5 to 1.8 metres (4.9–5.9 ft) tall. Like other moa, it has hair-like feathers (beige in this case), a long neck, large, powerful legs with very short, strong tarsi, and no vestigial wing bones. It also has a sternum without a keel and a distinctive palate. Its feet are exceptionally wide compared to other moas, making it a very slow creature. As they neared the head, the feathers grow shorter, until they finally turn into coarse hair-like feathers; the head itself is nearly bald as the animal ages. The eastern moa lives only on the South Island, and lives in the lowlands (forests, grasslands, dunelands, and shrublands). The conservation status of the eastern moa is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the eastern moa's wide natural range and its tolerance to most of human activities.
Donder

The **donder** (*Megalomacropus bipoda*) is a species of caviomorph rodent that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced to the newly formed deserts and scrublands of Azores archipelago to help boost biodiversity. The donders are most closely related to the guinea pigs and capybaras, but they fill the similar ecological niches to donkeys of the mainland, being a herbivore that primarily feeds on hardy desert plants and regularly shed their winter coats to cope with the warmer seasons in the more temperate areas, while they have short fur year-round in the subtropical areas. The donders are rather large rodents and among the largest rodents, with the length of about 16 feet (4.8 meters) long, including its tail, and weighs about 120-140 kilograms (264-308 lbs) on average. The donders are very similar to bipedal non-avian dinosaurs in build and locomotion, so it is not uncommon for people to mistake them for dinosaurs. The vocalizations of the donders includes high-pitched brays, rumbles, and growls, giving them the vocals very similar to an elk (*Cervus canadensis*), but slightly deeper in tone. The donders are social herd-dwellers that usually lives in groups of up to around 50 individuals at a time. The conservation status of the donder is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the donder's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities. Despite being wild animals, the donders are surprisingly tame and docile around humans, and they make good animals for petting zoos due to their tolerance to loud and artificial noises, along with constant petting and their varied diet that includes common petting zoo foods available for the non-human animals.
Dakotaraptor

***Dakotaraptor magnum***, also known as the **Dakota goblin**, is a species of non-avian dromaeosaurid theropod dinosaur that originally lived in North America during the Late Cretaceous period as an extinct species, *Dakotaraptor steini*, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii. *Dakotaraptor magnum* is exceptionally large for a dromaeosaurid; growing to be about 4.35-6 meters (14.3-19.7 feet) in length and weighing around 220-350 kilograms (485-772 lbs). Apart from its large size, *Dakotaraptor magnum* also have some additional distinguishing traits; for example, on the fourth foot claw, the boss that serves as an attachment for the tendon of the flexor muscle is reduced in size. While the hatchlings and young juveniles are capable of short bursts of flight using their wings, the adults are much too heavy to fly. Despite this flightless condition, the feathers are not reduced. There is a variety of functions for its wings, including shielding of eggs, display, intimidation and keeping balance while pinning down prey with the sickle claws. *Dakotaraptor magnum* is entirely carnivorous and primarily preys on animals smaller than itself as well as scavenge on carrion. *Dakotaraptor magnum* is usually a solitary animal and it prefers to live in most of its life alone except during the breeding seasons. *Dakotaraptor magnum* is found in zoos and safari parks across the world, due to zoos and safari parks commissioning SciiFii to have many formerly extinct species in their parks, as long as they take proper care for them.
Dreadnoughtus (SciiFii)

***Dreadnoughtus meridionali*** (name meaning "southern fears nothing") is a species of titanosaurian sauropod dinosaur that originally lived in what is now the Cerro Fortaleza Formation in Santa Cruz Province, Argentina in the Upper Cretaceous (Campanian to Maastrichtian; approximately 84–66 Ma) as an extinct species, *Dreadnoughtus schrani*, 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 South America to help boost biodiversity. *Dreadnoughtus meridionali* is among the largest terrestrial vertebrates, possessing one of the greatest mass of any land animal, with the average weight of about 49 tons (108,027 lb) and the length of 26 meters (85 feet). *Dreadnoughtus meridionali* is a herbivore like most advanced sauropods, feeding mainly on leaves of ferns, cycads, horsetails, conifers, and among other evergreen trees, but can sometimes feed on fruits and nuts. It is a social herd-dwelling animal, living in groups up to around 10-15 at a time in most cases, but can occasionally live in herds as much as around 30 if there's enough space and food for them. The females live in herds throughout almost all their lives, while males live in solitary lives, in a manner similar to elephants, and during mating seasons, males visit nearby herds and clash with other males until one backs down, that's when a winning male *Dreadnoughtus meridionali* gets a right to mate with any of the herds' females. The conservation status of *Dreadnoughtus meridionali* is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts and the animal's wide range.
Dusky seaside sparrow

The **dusky seaside sparrow** (*Ammospiza maritima nigrescens*) is a non-migratory subspecies of the seaside sparrow, found in Florida in the natural salt marshes of Merritt Island and along the St. Johns River. This subspecies was once extinct since the late-1980s-early 1990, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and reintroduced to Florida to help boost biodiversity. The dusky seaside sparrow adults have brownish upperparts with gray on the crown and nape, and a grayish-buff-colored breast with dark streaks; they have a dark face with gray cheeks, a white throat, and a short, pointed tail. Birds show a small yellow streak just above the eye. Their breeding habitat is salt marshes on the coasts of Florida. The nest is an open cup usually built in the salt marsh on tidal reeds and spartina grasses. Females lay two to five eggs. They forage on the ground or in marsh vegetation, sometimes probing in mud. They mainly eat insects, marine invertebrates and seeds. Their feeding areas are often some distance away from the areas they choose to nest. The conservation status of the dusky seaside sparrow is **Near Threatened** due to some habitat loss and historic poaching, however, thanks to the successful conservation efforts, the dusky seaside sparrow is making a comeback and is a protected species.
Daspletosaurus

***Daspletosaurus modernus*** (name meaning "modern frightful lizard") is a species of tyrannosaurid dinosaur that originally lived in western North America between about 77 and 74 million years ago, during the Late Cretaceous Period, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii. *Daspletosaurus modernus* is closely related to the much larger tyrannosaurid *Tyrannosaurus rex*, and, like most tyrannosaurids, *Daspletosaurus modernus* is a multi-tonne bipedal predator equipped with dozens of large, sharp teeth. *Daspletosaurus modernus* has the small, yet strong forelimbs typical of tyrannosaurids, although they were proportionately longer than in other genera. As an apex predator, the original ancestor of *Daspletosaurus modernus* was at the top of the food chain in its timeline, preying on large dinosaurs like the ceratopsid *Centrosaurus* and the hadrosaur *Hypacrosaurus*. *Daspletosaurus modernus* was originally planned to be included in **Cretaceous Park**, but zoos have commisioned for *Daspletosaurus modernus* to be in the zoos worldwide, and ever since zoos now have *Daspletosaurus modernus* almost everywhere.
Concavenator

***Concavenator camelus*** (name meaning "Cuenca hunter camel") is a species of feathered non-avian carcharodontosaurid theropod dinosaur that originally lived in what is now Spain, approximately 130 million years ago during the early Cretaceous period (Barremian age), as an extinct species, *Concavenator corcovatus* (name meaning "Cuenca hunter with a hump"), and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and, unlike most large non-avian carnivorous theropods, have been intentionally introduced throughout western and central Europe to help boost biodiversity. *Concavenator camelus* is a medium-sized (roughly 5.8 metres (19 ft) long) primitive carcharodontosaurian dinosaur possessing several unique features. Two extremely tall vertebrae in front of the hips formed a tall but narrow and pointed crest, which supports a hump on the dinosaur's back. The crest of *Concavenator camelus* is used in visual displays" during breeding seasons and, in most of its life, is also used as a thermal regulator. Like smaller non-avian theropods such as goblins (*Dromaeosaurs*), *Concavenator camelus* has structures resembling quill knobs on its ulna, a feature also known in birds, which supports moderately-sized quill-like feathers on its arms. *Concavenator camelus* is a carnivore like all carnosaurs, feeding mainly on fish, frogs, smaller reptiles, birds, small-to-medium-sized mammals, and carrion, although it can also feed on human rubbish (rotting steak, etc) in human settlements, thanks to the dinosaur's immunity against any harmful bacteria and viruses while it is eating rotting meat and human rubbish. *Concavenator camelus* is a solitary animal that spends throughout most of its life alone except during the breeding seasons. The conservation status of *Concavenator camelus* is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the dinosaur's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities. *Concavenator camelus* is tolerated by humans due to the fact that *Concavenator camelus* do not hunt or prey on people or their pets or livestock.
California milk snake

The **California milk snake** (*Lampropeltis triangulum californianus*) is a subspecies of milk snake (*Lampropeltis triangulum*) that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the wetlands, forests, and open woodlands across the western United States and Mexico to help boost biodiversity. The California milk snake's base color is red with distinct rings or bands of black and bright yellow. The California milk snake is one of the larger subspecies of milk snake, attaining a length of 48 inches in the wild and some captive specimens reaching a length of 5 feet. The California milk snake has a resemblance to the coral snake and this similarity in color, known as Batesian mimicry, helps protect the snake from potential predators. The California milk snake is nonvenomous and uses constriction to kill its prey and tends to be opportunistic when it comes to its diet; they eat other snakes (ophiophagy), including venomous snakes, lizards, rodents, birds and eggs. In captivity they are kept successfully on a diet of mice and rats. California milk snakes become sexually mature at 18 months. The females are oviparous, laying an average of 7–22 eggs per clutch in late May. The eggs incubate for approximately two months, and hatch in early or late August. The hatchlings are 8 inches long and darker in color than their parents when they emerge from the eggs. California milk snakes adapt well to captivity due to their relative ease of care and docile nature, and their moderate size and brilliant colors make them impressive and attractive pets. Unlike all king snakes and other milk snakes, they are not cannibalistic, and they can be housed either alone or in groups, even outside the breeding season. The conservation status of the California milk snake is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the California milk snake's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
Crowman

The **crowmen** of the genus *Homornis* are large, human-sized, flightless, troodont-like passerine birds of the corvid family, most closely related to the common raven (*Corvus corax*), that originally did not exist, but have since been created by SciiFii. There are two species of crowmen; the **common crowman** (*Homornis symmachus*), which has been brought to across the world ever since the genus was created with 8 subspecies, and its closest living relative, the **American crowman** (*Homornis ecthrans*), which was first brought to North America before its species had spread across the planet. The beak of this bird genus is shaped very similarly to a macaw and its wings had been modified to forelimbs with single finger-sized claw in place of a hand that curves downwards, giving it the appearance of its wrists being pronated, despite the fact that its wrists don't actually pronate (although its fingers are flexible and can rotate to give it a greater manipulating ability). The crowmen are omnivorous and feed on a wide range of food sources, including natural and man-made food (even food sources that are otherwise toxic to other birds such as chocolate). As a social genus, the crowmen are capable of living in small to large communities and inhabit a wide range of habitats, both man-made and naturally occurring habitats. The crowmen are known to make a wide array of tools and have a diverse range of cultures, religions, languages, science, technologies, and countless things like other sapient species. The conservation status of the both species of crowmen are **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the crowmen's wide range and their tolerance to many of the human activities, allowing them to be able to work and live with humans and other sapient species.

## List of common crowman subspecies

The greater common crowman (*Homornis symmachus symmachus*).The gray-headed crowman (*Homornis symmachus darti*).The Brazilian crowman (*Homornis symmachus braziliensis*).The South African crowman (*Homornis symmachus umbra*).The crested crowman (*Homornis symmachus regma*).The giant crowman (*Homornis symmachus major*).The Indian crowman (*Homornis symmachus indicus*).The southern crowman (*Homornis symmachus australis*).
Dawndraco

***Dawndraco nanopterus*** is a species of pteranodontid pterosaur that originally lived from the Late Cretaceous of North America as an extinct species, *Dawndraco kanzai*, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii. *Dawndraco nanopterus* is a rather medium-sized animal, with a wingspan that is usually about 20.5 feet (6.25 metres). It is a carnivore that primarily feeds on fish, squid, crustaceans, and worms, although it is known to occasionally snack on man-made food with meat in the such as hot dogs and burgers, to name a few. It is usually a solitary animal, living most of its life alone, but if and when there's enough food, this species can congregate in large flocks. *Dawndraco nanopterus* is found throughout North America, descended from the ones that escaped from the warehouse in New York City after the SciiFii Pterosaur Incident occurred in October 12, 2039, as a result of a group of unidentified criminals, probably either street gangs or terrorists, who released them after the failed attempt to steal them for possible use of war animals. *Dawndraco nanopterus* 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.
Cyprus dwarf hippopotamus

The **Cyprus dwarf hippopotamus** (*Hippopotamus minor*), also known as the **Cyprus pygmy hippopotamus** and the **Cypriot pygmy hippopotamus**, is a species of hippopotamus that inhabits the island of Cyprus and was once extinct since the early Holocene, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and reintroduced to its former range. The 200-kilogram (440 lb) The Cyprus dwarf hippo is roughly the same size as the African pygmy hippopotamus (*Choeropsis liberiensis*). Unlike the African pygmy hippo, the Cyprus dwarf hippo became small through the process of insular dwarfism. This same process also caused the dwarfism found in some dwarf elephants, the pygmy mammoth, and *Homo floresiensis*. The Cyprus dwarf hippo measures 76 cm (2.5 ft) tall and 121 cm (4.0 ft) long. The Cyprus dwarf hippo is the smallest hippopotamus of all known insular hippopotamuses. The Cyprus dwarf hippo is the second largest animal on the island of Cyprus, behind the Cyprus dwarf elephant (*Palaeoloxodon cypriotes*). The Cyprus dwarf hippo is a herbivore and has no natural predators. The conservation status of the Cyprus dwarf hippopotamus is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the Cyprus dwarf hippo's tolerance to many human activities, as well as invasive competitors such as goats, sheep, etc, and even predators such as feral dogs, feral cats (on calves), etc, possibly due to SciiFii tinkering with the Cyprus dwarf hippo's genes to help the dwarf hippo deal with invaders.
Diplodocus V2

***Diplodocus textis*** (name meaning "wattled double beam") is a species of giant sauropod part of the family of sauropods, Diplodocids. It originally lived during the Late Jurassic in what is now Colorado, Wyoming, Utah, and Montana, and was once extinct, but has been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and, unlike Sciifii's first *Diplodocus* species, has been introduced to the open woodlands and grasslands across North America to help boost biodiversity. *Diplodocus textis* is a herbivore like most advanced sauropods, feeding mainly on leaves of ferns, cyacads, horsetails, conifers, and among other evergreen trees, but can sometimes feed on fruits and nuts. It is one of the longest dinosaurs alive today, growing to be around 88.6 feet (27 meters) long and weigh as much as two bull African elephants. It is a social herd-dwelling animal, living in groups up to around 10-15 at a time in most cases, but can occasionally live in herds as much as around 50-75 if there's enough space and food for them. The females live in herds throughout almost all their lives, while males live in solitary lives, in a manner similar to elephants, and during mating seasons, males visit nearby herds and clash with other males until one backs down, that's when a winning male *Diplodocus textis* gets a right to mate with any of the herds' females. The conservation status of *Diplodocus textis* is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts and the animal's wide range.
Cantius

The **Euro-American black-backed lemur** (*Cantius alba*) is a species of lemur-like adapiform strepsirrhine primate, despite its name, that originally lived during the Early Eocene in what is now North America and Europe as an extinct species of *Cantius* and the genus itself was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced throughout the modern tropical, subtropical, and temperate rainforests, forests, swamps, and open woodlands across the North America and Eurasia to help boost biodiversity. The Euro-American black-backed lemur has a total length of 101 centimeters (40 inches), including 51 centimeter (20 inch) of tail, and the average weight is usually about 3 kilograms (6.6 lbs). The Euro-American black-backed lemur has a coat of light grey fur with, as its name suggests, a black back and tail tip. The The Euro-American black-backed lemur is nocturnal and relies on arboreal quadrupedal locomotion, primarily running and leaping. This locomotor pattern comparable to that of true lemurs (Lemuroidea), which has fostered the hypothesis that strepsirrhine adapiforms have a close phylogenetic affinity to true lemurs. As primarily a frugivore, the diet within this species consists mainly of fruit, although nectar and flowers are also favored, followed by leaves and some seeds. The Euro-American black-backed lemur has a complex social structure and is known for its loud, raucous calls, most similar to ruffed lemurs of the island of Madagascar. It is unusual in that it exhibits several reproductive traits typically found in average-sized, nocturnal adapiforms, such as a short gestation period, large litters and rapid maturation. In captivity, they can live up to 36 years. The conservation status of the Euro-American black-backed lemur is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the Euro-American black-backed lemur's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
Dromornis

The **pink-legged demon duck** (*Dromornis sciifii*), also known as the Australian thunderbird, is a species of flightless birds that originally lived in the Late Miocene in what is now Australia, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii before being introduced to modern Australian rainforests, swamps, and forests to boost biodiversity. The red-billed demon duck stands around stood up to 3 m (9.8 feet) tall and weigh up to 730 kg (1,610 pounds). Despite its fearsome appearance, it is actually a peaceful herbivore that mainly feeds on large nuts, fruits, and shrubs, and using its beak and claws only for defense if it is threatened or just feels threatened. The conservation status of the pink-legged demon duck is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts and its wide range.
Dusisiren

The **giant sea cow** (*Dusisiren pacifica*) is a genus of dugong related to the Steller's sea cow that originally lived in the North Pacific during the Neogene as an extinct species of *Dusisiren* and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced throughout the modern temperate and boreal seas across the North Pacific to help boost biodiversity. The giant sea cow evolved from the mangrove-eating ancestors that adapted to cold climates in the North Pacific by developing the capability to feed on kelp beds out on the open coast. The incipient modifications to the cervicals allows it to be capable of maneuvering and feeding in high-energy environments of surf-swept coasts with deep, cold water. The giant sea cow, as its name suggests, is a very large animal, growing to be about 19 feet (5.7 meters) in length, it is surpassed only by the Steller's sea cow. Like the closely related Steller's sea cow, the giant sea cow is a slow-moving herbivore that primarily feeds on kelp and other seaweed. The giant sea cow is a monogamous and social animal living in small family groups and raising its young, similar to other sirenians, and communicates with sighs and snorting sounds. The conservation status of the giant sea cow is **Vulnerable** due to historic poaching, however, thanks to strong conservation efforts, they are making a comeback as they are increasing in numbers.
Crested runner

The **crested runner** (*Lophanas grallator*) is a species of duck of the family, Dromanatidae, that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the grasslands across New Zealand to help boost biodiversity. The crested runner displays a well developed sagittal crest or "casque" on top of its head. This structure provides an increasing surface for the attachment of jaw muscles, which in turns allows it to process large quantities of plant material more successfully. The crested runner is a herbivore that primarily feeds on shrubs and a wide range of grasses. The crested runner is a solitary animal throughout most of its life except during the breeding seasons. The conservation status of the crested runner is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts and the crested runner's wide range.
Dimetrodon V2

***Dimetrodon mammalia*** (meaning "mammalian two measures of teeth") is a species of sphenacodontid synapsid with a distinctive sail along its back, similar to the closely related prey, *Edaphosaurus*, that first lived in the early Permian and was once extinct, but has been brought back through genetic engineering by SciiFii. *Dimetrodon mammalia* was originally planned to be part of **Paleozoic Park** in Downey, California, but on January 17th, 2039, two intruders, Clooney Brown and Jim Anderson, broke into Paleozoic Park's laboratory and stole the babies of *Dimetrodon mammalia* as an attempt to sell them an illegal pet trade. However, the next day in 3:41 AM, at San Jose, California, both Clooney and Jim were killed in the car accident, and the *Dimetrodon mammalia* babies broke out of the badly-damaged vehicle, escaping into the wilderness and flourished due to abundant food and water sources. Ever since that event, the feral populations of *Dimetrodon mammalia* in California have exploded from just 7 hatchlings to more than 550 individuals in a couple decades, and the populations are still increasing. *Dimetrodon mammalia* walks on all four legs, it has a long rat-like tall, smooth skin covered in smooth orangish brown fur, an armored underbelly, and a curved skull with large teeth of different sizes set along the jaws. As its name suggests, it has a thick cat-like nose with whiskers to help it find its way around in the dark. It is a predatory animal that primarily feeds on fish, amphibians, small reptiles, small-to-medium-sized synapsids (including mammals), and carrion. The sail of *Dimetrodon mammalia* is mainly used to stabilize its spine and to heat and cool its body as a form of thermoregulation, but during breeding seasons, the sail is also used in courtship display with methods such as threatening rivals and showing off to potential mates. *Dimetrodon mammalia* is a rather large animal growing to be around 4 metres (13 feet) long and weigh about 250 kilograms (550 lb). *Dimetrodon mammalia* is normally a solitary animal in most of its life except during breeding seasons. Like reptiles, it lays soft-shelled eggs, and the mother *Dimetrodon mammalia* usually lays around 15-25 eggs at a time, but after the *Dimetrodon mammalia* babies hatches, the babies feed on their mother's milk-like glands similarly to how mammal mothers of any species feed their young milk, to help the *Dimetrodon mammalia* babies grow up until they're independent from their mothers. To provide shelter against predators and temperature changes, the *Dimetrodon mammalia* mothers use dens (similarly to bears) or dig burrows (similarly to echidnas of Australia) for the mothers to lay eggs and nurture their young.
Dimorphodon

***Dimorphodon sciifii*** (name meaning "SciiFii's Dimorphodon") is a species of small pterosaur that originally lived in Early Jurassic Europe and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii. *Dimorphodon sciifii* is a carnivore, feeding on a wide range of small mammals, small birds, smaller reptiles, small frogs, small fish, and crustaceans, having a lifestyle similar to that of a crow or a raven in some ways. It is a solitary animal that lives most of its life alone, but during breeding seasons, the males try to find females, and if successful, they become mates for life. *Dimorphodon sciifii* is found throughout Eurasia, Africa, Australia, North America, and South America as a result of the SciiFii Pterosaur Incident, which occurred on October 12, 2039, and was caused by unidentified criminals and their failed attempt to steal pterosaurs for wars, but unintentionally released the pterosaurs out of the exhibits and into the modern world. *Dimorphodon sciifii* is a very common species, not in risk of extinction, due to being an adaptable animal that is able to live in cities and suburbs, not just the wilderness.
Conquered lorikeet

The **conquered lorikeet** (*Vini vidivici*) is a species of parrot that is native to the islands of Polynesia. It was once extinct since around 700–1300 years ago, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and reintroduced to the islands of Polynesia to help boost biodiversity. It is a large species of lorikeet; the only larger species of lorikeet is the **Sinoto's lorikeet** (*Vini sinotoi*) of the Marquesas Islands. It is covered in dark purple feathers, it also has dark green wings and white feathers on its throat and face, and has a light greyish-red beak and legs. The conquered lorikeets frequent areas with flowering trees, including coconut plantations and gardens, usually in small flocks of less than about 15 individuals or in pairs during breeding season. It eats nectar, pollen and soft fruits, especially wild hibiscus and coconut. The conquered lorikeet nests in holes in trees, but may also dig burrows in earth banks. The conservation status of the conquered lorikeet is **Near Threatened** due to some habitat loss and, historically, poaching and invasive species, however, thanks to conservationists, the non-native predators and egg-eaters have been eradicated, allowing natives like the conquered lorikeet to make a comeback.
Clawed unicorn

A **clawed unicorn** (*Unicornochalicus europii*) (name meaning **European unicorn pebble/gravel**) is a species of chalicothere created by SciiFii and introduced to Europe to help boost biodiversity. It resembles a very bulky unicorn, but has thick strong claws for protection against predators. It is normally an aggressive and solitary animal that lives almost all its life alone, but males can fight other males during mating seasons. The lifecycle of a clawed unicorn is very similar to that of a black rhinoceros in many ways. The conservation status of the clawed unicorn is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts.
Coragyps occidentalis

The **western black vulture** (*Coragyps occidentalis*), also known as the **Pleistocene black vulture** (due to originally living during the Pleistocene), is a species of New World vulture of the family *Cathartidae* that originally lived in Pleistocene North America and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and reintroduced throughout the open woodlands, grasslands, shrublands, scrublands, deserts, hills, and mountains across central, southern, southwestern, and western United States and throughout Mexico to help boost biodiversity. Despite the similar name and appearance, this species, along with the American black vulture (*Coragyps atratus*), is unrelated to the Eurasian black vulture, an Old World vulture in the family *Accipitridae* (which includes eagles, hawks, kites, and harriers). It inhabits relatively open areas which provide scattered forests or shrublands. With a wingspan of 1.5 meters (4.9 feet), the black vulture is a large bird though relatively small for a vulture. It has black plumage, a featherless, grayish-black head and neck, and a short, hooked beak. The western black vulture is a scavenger and feeds on carrion, but will also eat eggs or kill newborn animals (livestock such as cattle). In areas populated by humans, it also feeds at garbage dumps. It finds its meals either by using its keen eyesight or by following other (New World) vultures, which possess a keen sense of smell. Lacking a syrinx—the vocal organ of birds—its only vocalizations are grunts or low hisses. It lays its eggs in caves or hollow trees or on the bare ground, and generally raises two chicks each year, which it feeds by regurgitation. The conservation status of the western black vulture is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the western black vulture's wide natural range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
Dragon tegu

The **dragon tegu** (*Dracosalvator giganteum*) is a species of lizard of the family Teiidae, most closely related to the tegu of the genus *Salvator*, 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 South America to help boost biodiversity. The dragon tegu is the largest extant North American species of lizard, growing to an average length of about 3 metres (10 ft), and weighing up to approximately 70 kilograms (150 lb), about the size of the largest Komodo dragons (*Varanus komodoensis*) of Indonesia, although some individuals can grow slightly larger. As a result of their size, dragon tegus are one of the many apex predators of the Americas, and fill the ecological niche similar to Komodo dragons, hence their names. Dragon tegus hunt and ambush prey including invertebrates, birds, and mammals. The dragon tegus have two glands in the lower jaw which secrete several toxic proteins, and glands are known to secrete an anticoagulant. Dragon tegus' group behavior in hunting is exceptional among the non-archosaurian reptiles. The diet of Komodo dragons mainly consists of deer such as white-tailed deer (*Odocoileus virginianus*) and mule deer (*Odocoileus hemionus*), to name a few, though they also eat considerable amounts of carrion. Dragon tegus also occasionally attack humans, although those occurrences are rare. Mating begins between April and August, and the eggs are laid in August or September; as many as 50 eggs are deposited at a time in an abandoned ground-nesting bird nest or in a self-dug nesting hole. The eggs are incubated for seven to eight months, hatching in March or April, when insects are most plentiful. Young dragon tegus are vulnerable and dwell in trees to avoid predators, such as cannibalistic adults. They take 5 to 6 years to mature and are estimated to live up to 50 years. The conservation status of the dragon tegu is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the dragon tegu's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
Dorudon

The **common mosawhale** (*Dorudon modernus*, name meaning "modern spear-tooth") is a species of small basilosaurid whale that originally lived alongside *Basilosaurus* 40.4 to 33.9 million years ago in the Eocene, and was once extinct, but has been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced to the modern Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian Ocean to help boost a declining biodiversities. They are about 5 meters (16 ft) long and mainly feeds on small fish and mollusks. The common mosawhale is named for its appearance that resembles a mosasaur at first glance. The common mosawhales are social animals that live in pods in a manner similar to dolphins, which sometimes can be found living alongside common mosawhales. The conservation status of the common mosawhales is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts.
Diplocaulus

***Diplocaulus california*** (name meaning "Californian double caul") is a species of lepospondyl amphibians which originally lived from the Late Carboniferous to Permian periods of North America and Africa, and was once extinct, but has been brought back through genetic engineering by SciiFii. Some of the *Diplocaulus california* were intended to be located in **Reptile House** of **Paleozoic Park**, located in Downey, California, however some of the *Diplocaulus california* were accidentally introduced to modern North America outside of captivity after several pairs of Diplocaulus escaped through burrowing underneath their planned exhibits, and ever since they now live throughout wilderness and human settlements of western United States. *Diplocaulus california* are by far the largest and most well-known lepospondyls, characterized by a distinctive boomerang-shaped skull, which functions as a hydrofoil allowing it to move in strong currents,‭ ‬and the shape of its skull makes it impossible for most other predators to swallow. *Diplocaulus california* is a solitary animal in most of its time and is largely carnivorous, feeding mainly on arthropods, worms, leeches, small fish, smaller amphibians, small lizards, small snakes, small mammals, and carrion, but can occasionally feed on man-made food (made from meat) to supplement its diet. It is camouflaged in an appearance similar to fallen leaves, making it a sort of amphibian equivalent to matamata turtles, and is camouflaged in order to ambush smaller prey.
Dingonek

The **dingonek** (*Dingonek odobenomimus*), also known as the **African walrus** or **freshwater walrus**, is, despite its name, not a walrus or any sort of pinniped, but an aquatic species of saber-toothed cat (*Machairodontinae*) that originally did not exist, however, they have since been created by SciiFii and introduced to the rivers, lakes, and riverbanks across Africa to help boost biodiversity. The closest living relative of the dingonek is *Dinofelis*. Unlike most other big cats, dingonek has been modified to be an amphibious and, in some cases, fully aquatic animal. The dingonek is a giant animal, insulated by fat and thick skin, and hence eventually came to superficially resemble the walruses of the far north. The dingoneks live in the tropics, where there are not much evolutionary pressures, at least compared with were true walruses evolved, and they have hence enlarged, lengthened and broadened the tail to the extent that it now serves a useful function in swimming, which is a similar pattern of tail evolution like those of the earliest sirenians and cetaceans (both of which have since been brought back from extinction). The dingonek, however, has a completely different lifestyle to the true walruses of the arctic, spending some time ambushing near the water's edge for prey such as antelopes in a manner similar to crocodiles and alligators. The conservation status of the dingonek is **Vulnerable** due to some habitat loss and poaching, however, thanks to conservationists, the dingonek has made a comeback.
Dolichorhynchops

***Dolichorhynchops oceanum*** (name meaning "ocean long-nosed face") is a species of polycotylid plesiosaur that originally lived from the Late Cretaceous (early Turonian to late Campanian stage) of North America, as three extinct species, *Dolichorhynchops osborni*, *Dolichorhynchops bonneri* and *Dolichorhynchops tropicensis*, as well as a questionably referred fourth species, *Dolichorhynchops herschelensis*, and the genus itself was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and, unlike most Mesozoic marine reptiles, have been introduced throughout the world's oceans to help boost biodiversity. *Dolichorhynchops oceanum* is an oceangoing reptile with a short neck unlike most other plesiosaurs and uses its long, paddle-like flippers to fly through the water like a penguin. *Dolichorhynchops oceanum* is quick and agile underwater acrobats, with large eyes well adapted to spying small prey. Long, narrow jaws filled with 30 to 40 sharp teeth in a single row allow *Dolichorhynchops oceanum* to grab its prey but not cut it. Instead, the captured fish are swallowed whole. *Dolichorhynchops oceanum* is a rather average-sized animal, growing on average of between 12 to 15 feet (4 to 5 meters) long and is covered in smooth skin. It is a social animal that can live in pods of up to around 30 individuals at a time. Like other plesiosaurs, the female *Dolichorhynchops oceanum* gives birth to around 1-3 young at a time, rather than laying eggs as in most reptiles, due to being fully aquatic. The conservation status of *Dolichorhynchops oceanum* is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the animal's wide range and its tolerance to most of human activities.
Drepanopterus

The **whip-tailed water scorpion** (*Drepanopterus flagellum*) is a species of eurypterid (sea scorpion) that originally lived in Canada, England, and Scotland during the Silurian and Devonian as an extinct species of *Drepanopterus* and the genus itself was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and now lives in **Paleozoic Park** located in Downey, California. The whip-tailed water scorpion is distinguished by its "fairly large" size (with an average length of about 40 centimeters or 15 inches), compound eyes with parallel axes on a subrectangular to subovate prosoma (head). All of its legs are walking legs; the first three pairs are short and powerful, with spines; the last two pairs are moderately long, ending in strongly curved terminal claw. The last leg reaches as far as the penultimate abdominal segment. The telson ranges from styliform to clavate. As an almost fully-aquatic carnivore, the whip-tailed water scorpion feeds primarily on other aquatic invertebrates and sometimes fish. Like horseshoe crabs, the whip-tailed water scorpions lay their eggs in sand or mud and abandons them, only for the eggs to hatch about a month later.
Catonyx

The **greater anteater ground sloth** (*Catonyx cirus*) is a species of ground sloth of the family Scelidotheriidae, which originally lived in South America during the Pleistocene epoch from 2.5 Ma to about 10,000 years ago, existing for approximately 2.49 million years, as an extinct species of *Catonyx*, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction SciiFii and reintroduced throughout the rainforests, swamps, forests, and open woodlands across South America to help boost biodiversity. The greater anteater ground sloth is named for its fur coloration, which is almost identical to the fur coloration of the giant anteater. It is a rather large animal and can grow to be about the size of a large brown bear on average. Like other ground sloths, the greater anteater ground sloth is a browser which uses both its strong, clawed front limbs and strong lips to grab vegetation, which primarily consists of leaves, fruits, and other kinds of vegetation. The conservation status of the greater anteater ground sloth is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts and the greater anteater ground sloth's wide natural range.
Darwinius

The **European red ruffed lemur** (*Darwinius ruber*), also known as the **fast loris** and the **long-tailed fast loris**, is a species of *Adapiforme* strepsirrhine primate, despite its name, that originally lived in what is now Europe during the Eocene as an extinct species, *Darwinius masillae*, and the genus itself was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced throughout the modern forests, swamps, and open woodlands across Europe to help boost biodiversity. The European red ruffed lemur is a relatively large prosimian primate. Its average weight is 2.2 kilograms (4.9 lb). Its head–body length ranges between 39 and 46 centimeters (15 and 18 inches), its tail length is 56 and 63 centimeters (22 and 25 inches), and its total length is 95 and 110 centimeters (37 and 43 inches). The European red ruffed lemur is omnivorous and the most terrestrial of extant European prosimian primates. The European red ruffed lemur is mainly diurnal, being active throughout the daylight hours, although it is known to be active at dusk and dawn. The European red ruffed lemur is highly social, living in groups of up to 30 individuals. It is also female dominant, a trait common among social *Adapiforme* primates and lemurs. To keep warm and reaffirm social bonds, groups will huddle together. The European red ruffed lemur will also sunbathe, sitting upright facing its underside, with its thinner white fur towards the sun. Like other social *Adapiformes*, this species relies strongly on its sense of smell and marks its territory with scent glands. The males perform a unique scent marking behavior called spur marking and will participate in stink fights by marking their tail with their scent and wafting it at opponents. As one of the most vocal primates, the European red ruffed lemur uses numerous vocalizations including group cohesion and alarm calls. Experiments have shown that the European red ruffed lemur, despite the lack of a large brain (relative to simiiform primates), can organize sequences, understand basic arithmetic operations and preferentially select tools based on functional qualities. The conservation status of the European red ruffed lemur is **Least Concern** due to successful conservation efforts, the European red ruffed lemur's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities. It is also one of the most common prosimian primates of Europe, able to adapt to a wide range of forested habitats, including city parks, gardens, and rural environments.
