Hynerpeton

The Hynerpeton was a extinct species of amphibian and one of the first vertebrate animals that could live and move on land for an extended amount of time. Which they are also characters in the Koba Files Series.

## Facts

Despite the dangers of the water, *Hynerpeton* needed to make sure they were wet or their skin would dry out quickly and they would die. Despite the part in the show that *Hynerpeton* was evolved from jawless fish like *Cephalaspis*. In fact, like most tetrapods, it evolved from the lobe-finned fishes, which were jawed fishes. they could adapt to a home at the water’s edge. But still, life for these animals was far from easy. These creatures had evolved complex lungs to exploit the oxygen. Their lungs were like a human’s and they breathed as humans do, forcing air in and out so that their blood could absorb more oxygen. Although they could breathe on land, they were still water-bound. Their skin was much thinner than a human's so they had to keep it wet. But when the sun set, *Hynerpeton* could spend more time on land. The females of this species were choosy and would only go for males who could defend their territory.

But when night arrived for these animals, so did competition. To avoid injury, the males demonstrated their strength in a cute push-up contest. When it came to mating, their eggs were soft and their young had gills, not lungs, so they had to be laid in water.

## In the walking with series

*Hynerpeton* was seen in the episode Water Dwellers. One was chased by a *Stethacanthus* and a *Hyneria* but was able to escape. It evolved into Petrolacosaurus.

## Koba Files Series

Hynerpeton appear in the series mostly in cameos: such as toys, plushes, dolls, products, models, museums, dioramas, & on posters. They also appear to be in zoos, aquariums, safari parks, animal theme parks, national parks, wildlife reserves, wildlife perseveres, pet stores, & parks. They'd tend to mostly roam around in human settlements like cities, towns, & villages. They're even seen in urban areas like neighborhoods, parks, yards, flooded areas, gold courses, & schools because they have mostly water there. Despite being amphibians, they are also some what able to understand human language. Plus they were also sometimes seen roaming on farm areas: like in flooded fields, cranberries farms, & in small waterfowl farms. Farmers would often consider them as pests: such as seeing them prey upon their poultry, waterfowl, rabbits, goats, sheep, & pigs. The farmers often set traps to drive them away. As for The Creature Protection Team, they were called in by a Hispanic woman to rescue a herd of Hynerpetons from a poultry farmer. In which the farmer was determined to kill them. As them team arrived, the woman told them about the farmer was her neighbor that was gonna kill them amphibians are eating some of his chickens. The woman let them to where the amphibians are. The team captured the amphibians. They were taken to the Coastal Zoo for research. As they were being research by scientists, Suzi: the director of Suzi Plaza told them about she has a Giant Japanese Salamander exhibit. In which she order the zookeepers to put the hynerpetons in the same exhibit. The primitive amphibians interacted with the modern ones.
