Chimera Dinosaurs

The **Chimera Dinosaurs** are a group of dinosaur-hybrid monsters that appeared in the *Leeko: The Beginning* trilogy.

## Characteristics

Each of the Chimera Dinosaurs were created using samples of DNA from various recurring characters of the show extracted from their blood samples taken from Dr. Fossilic. It is implied that these dinosaurs can be incubated, hatched, and reared to maturity in mere moments, as they appear very quickly and at large sizes in only a matter of hours after the samples are taken. Notably, most of the dinosaurs also possess articles of clothing and/or hairstyles that match those of the characters they are based on. All of the Chimera Dinosaurs have featureless red or yellow eyes, and most of them have spines, fangs, and claws as well. Each Chimera Dinosaur is hostile toward the tour group that entered the jungle, though they also may attack each other. However, they ultimately obey the orders of Dr. Fossilic.

The following is a list of each of the Chimera Dinosaurs in chronological order:

* **Leo-Rex** - a giant yellow Tyrannosaurus Rex that resembles King Leonardo. It often gets in quarrels with or tries to cooperate with the **Tommysaurus**.
* **Tommysaurus** - a large turtle-like dinosaur with stegosaurus plates that is based on Tommy. It is often the target of bullying by **Leo-Rex**.
* **Gordysaurus** - the largest of the Chimera Dinosaurs, being a brontosaurus that resembles Chief Gordy.
* **Baysaurus** - a large carnivorous dinosaur that resembles Mayor Bay Brittleton.
* **Marvinsaurus** - an allosaurus-like creature that resembles Marvin. It travels together with the **Bubblesaurus**.
* **Bubblesaurus** - an allosaurus-like creature that resembles Bubbles. It travels together with the **Marvinsaurus**.
* **Millysaurus** - a small carnivorous dinosaur that resembles Milly and is hostile towards **Leo-Rex**.
* **Mannadactyl** - a winged orange creature that is based on Manny and is hostile towards **Leo-Rex**.
* **Peppersaurus** - a velociraptor-like creature that is based on Chef Peppermint. It is not quite as formidable as the others.
* **Leekosaurus** - the most powerful Chimera of them all, resembling Leeko and ridden by Dr. Fossilic himself. The Leekosaurus has Leeko's vacuum-mouth ability and uses Copy Abilities.

## Role in the series

### Leeko: The Beginning

The Chimera Dinosaurs are created as a result of Dr. Fossilic's genetic engineering along with the unwitting help of Milly and her friends, and King Leonardo and Tommy. The dinosaurs do not appear in their mature state until the Dinosaur Kingdom tour group gets in their boat and heads deep into the Tonka Sahara wilderness. From there, most of Dinosaur Park, Part 2 revolves around the tour group being attacked or otherwise terrorized by the Chimera Dinosaurs.

Later on in the episode, Dr. Fossilic gets a hold of Leeko's DNA and uses it to create the ultimate Chimera: the Leekosaurus. Using this monster, he tries to defeat Leeko by having the Leekosaurus vacuum-mouth him, but Leeko is saved by his Shooting Star. King Leonardo then tosses the Leekosaurus a torch to vacuum-mouth, which gives the monster the Fire Copy Ability. King Leonardo then tries to toss a large bomb for the Leekosaurus to vacuum-mouth as well, but Leeko catches this instead and turns into Crash Leeko from it. Using this ability, Leeko destroys all of the Chimera Dinosaurs, along with Dr. Fossilic and his laboratory.

## Appearances in the series

## Trivia

* Although DNA samples were taken from everyone in the tour group, Chimera Dinosaurs of Beatrice, Daisy, Felix, Gamba, Madeline, Miss Yuubin, Parker, Professor Antico, Snowdrop, and Whitehead do not appear. Had they appeared, there would have been twice as many distinct chimeras.
* The Leekosaurus is implied to be boneless, as it is the only one that does leave behind a skeleton after Crash Leeko's attack.
