Dreadwind (G1)

"As ominous as a storm cloud and as chilling as a winter breeze." Not everyone could make Dead End look fun by comparison, but **Dreadwind** (aka **Dreadwing**) manages just that. After all, Dead End just depresses himself, but Dreadwind manages to export the feeling to everyone around him. Like a bad case of Scraplets, Dreadwind's gloom is contagious and there's no mood so positive that he can't kill it within moments of entering the room. Mournful and doom-laden at the best of times, Decepticons avoid him socially and Autobots avoid him on the battlefield, leaving Dreadwind wracked with loneliness and despair.

He tends to think that he has no friends, but the truth is that he couldn't have a more perfect match than his partner Darkwing, and the two are fairly inseparable. He gets along less well with his binary-bonded Nebulan Powermasterpartner Hi-Test, a villainous, overachieving perfectionist who tries to bully Dreadwind into enjoying their evil acts.

Dreadwind has an exceptionally primitive nervous system, rendering him immune to most pain except, ironically, existential pain.[1]
Deinonychus

***Deinonychus*** (/daɪˈnɒnɪkəs/ *dy-NON-i-kəs*; *Greek: δεινός*, 'terrible' and *ὄνυξ*, genitive *ὄνυχος* 'claw') is a genus of carnivorousdromaeosaurid coelurosaurian dinosaurs, with one described species, ***Deinonychus antirrhopus***. This species, which could grow up to 3.4 metres (11 ft) long, lived during the early Cretaceous Period, about 115–108 million years ago (from the mid-Aptian to early Albianstages). Fossils have been recovered from the U.S. states of Montana, Utah, Wyoming, and Oklahoma, in rocks of the Cloverly Formation, Cedar Mountain Formation and Antlers Formation, though teeth that may belong to *Deinonychus* have been found much farther east in Maryland.

Paleontologist John Ostrom's study of *Deinonychus* in the late 1960s revolutionized the way scientists thought about dinosaurs, leading to the "dinosaur renaissance" and igniting the debate on whether dinosaurs were warm-blooded or cold blooded. Before this, the popular conception of dinosaurs had been one of plodding, reptilian giants. Ostrom noted the small body, sleek, horizontal posture, ratite-like spine, and especially the enlarged raptorial claws on the feet, which suggested an active, agile predator.[1]

"Terrible claw" refers to the unusually large, sickle-shaped talon on the second toe of each hind foot. The fossil YPM 5205 preserves a large, strongly curved ungual. In life, archosaurs have a horny sheath over this bone, which extends the length. Ostrom looked at crocodile and bird claws and reconstructed the claw for YPM 5205 as over 120 millimetres (4.7 in) long.[1] The species name *antirrhopus*means "counter balance", which refers to Ostrom's idea about the function of the tail. As in other dromaeosaurids, the tail vertebrae have a series of ossified tendons and super-elongated bone processes. These features seemed to make the tail into a stiff counterbalance, but a fossil of the very closely related *Velociraptor mongoliensis* (*IGM* 100/986) has an articulated tail skeleton that is curved laterally in a long S-shape. This suggests that, in life, the tail could bend to the sides with a high degree of flexibility.[2] In both the Cloverly and Antlers formations, *Deinonychus* remains have been found closely associated with those of the ornithopod *Tenontosaurus*. Teeth discovered associated with *Tenontosaurus* specimens imply they were hunted, or at least scavenged upon, by *Deinonychus*.
Dread Kong

**Dread Kong** is a large intimidating looking Kong and the first boss faced in the game *Donkey Kong Jungle Beat*. Dread Kong is the ruler of the Banana Kingdom, which is the first kingdom Donkey Kong ventures through. The fight for Dread Kong is fought upon treetops, and being the first boss, is the easiest of the Kong bosses faced. Dread Kong later appears at the end of game ceremony where he, along with the other Kongs faced, honors Donkey Kong's victory over the evil Ghastly King.
Dryaderces inframaculata

***Dryaderces inframaculata*** is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is endemic to Brazil and known from between the Tapajós and Xingu Rivers in Pará.[2][3] Until recently, it was only known from one specimen collected near Santarém, probably around 1876, by Henry Wickham.[3] Common name **Santarem treefrog** has been coined for it.[2]
Ecliptopera silaceata

***Ecliptopera silaceata***, the **small phoenix**, is a moth of the family Geometridae.

The distribution includes most of Europe including the British Isles and extends eastwards through Russia and the Altai and the Vyatskoye, as well as North into the Arctic Circle, and South to the Caucasus. It also occurs in North America.

The wingspan is 23–27 mm. The length of the forewings is 13–17 mm.The basal region is dark grey, and is bordered by a light coloured band in which are mostly dark stains. The very wide discal region is black-brown, and often shows a nearly elliptical white "drawing" in the middle. The marginal area is brown with several significant arrow patches. Two or three distally facing peaks continue as orange colored strokes sometimes up to the outer edge. Below the apex, there are dark arch stains and a white wavy line located at the outer edge. The hind wings are white grey and have bright crosslines as well as a little black heart. The colour of head, thorax, and abdomen is brown.

The moths fly in two generations from May to July and from August to September. [1].

The larvae feed mainly on willowherbs.
Dorcas gazelle

The **dorcas gazelle** (*Gazella dorcas*), also known as the **ariel gazelle**, is a small and common gazelle. The dorcas gazelle stands about 55–65 cm (1.8-2.1 ft) at the shoulder, with a head and body length of 90–110 cm (3-3.6 ft) and a weight of 15–20 kg (33-44 lb). The numerous subspecies survive on vegetation in grassland, steppe, wadis, mountain desert and in semidesert climates of Africa and Arabia. About 35,000 - 40,000 exist in the wild. The extinct Saudi gazelle from the Arabian Peninsula has been previously considered as a subspecies of the dorcas gazelle.
Dwarf rocket frog

The **dwarf rocket frog** (*Litoria dorsalis*) is a species of frog in the family Hylidae.

It is found in Papua New Guinea and possibly West Papua in Indonesia. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests, subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, moist savanna, intermittent freshwater marshes, rural gardens, and heavily degraded former forests.
Drunken Master Sloth

The nose the of the Drunken Master Sloth is always red. You'll be surprised when you hear how much he had to drink to become the Drunken Master! It was possible thanks to his love for alcohol and Kung Fu. The Drunken Master Sloth is the happiest man in Xiaolin since he's able to enjoy two things that he loves the most every day!
Double Leap Year Dragon

*Double leap year, double dragon heads! Truly, two heads are better than none, because how would you feed a dragon without a head? Of course, with two heads come other pertinent questions: Which head controls the feet? What happens if they get into a staring contest? Can they communicate telepathically? Don't you wish you had a second head, too?*
Drag Strip (Animated)

**Drag Strip** has plenty to be angry about. Not only did Scalpel protoform her into a weak Autobot body, but she has to take orders from those privileged idiots Wildrider and The Motor Master, and why? Because Cybertron is ruled by Autobots, not rightfully by Decepticons. Never mind that she plays the stupid damsel-in-distress role in Team Stunticons' fake stunt show. That's just adding insult to injury.

So don't be surprised if she takes out that anger on everyone with her laser swords.
Edaphosaurus

***Edaphosaurus*** (/ˌɛdəfoʊˈsɔːrəs/, meaning "pavement lizard" for dense clusters of teeth) is a genus of extinct edaphosaurid synapsid that lived around 300 to 280 million years ago, during the late Carboniferous to early Permian periods. The American paleontologist Edward Drinker Cope first described *Edaphosaurus* in 1882,[1] naming it for the "dental pavement" on both the upper and lower jaws, from the Greek *edaphos*/*εδαφος* ("ground"; also "pavement") and *σαυρος*/*sauros* ("lizard").

*Edaphosaurus* is important as one of the earliest known large plant-eating (herbivorous) amniote tetrapods (four-legged land-living vertebrates). In addition to the large tooth plates in its jaws, the most characteristic feature of *Edaphosaurus* is a sail on its back. A number of other synapsids from the same time period also have tall dorsal sails, most famously the large apex predator *Dimetrodon*. However, the sail on *Edaphosaurus* is different in shape and morphology. The first fossils of *Edaphosaurus* came from the Texas Red Beds in North America, with later finds in New Mexico, Oklahoma, West Virginia, and Ohio. Fragmentary fossils attributed to *Edaphosaurus* also have been found in the Czech Republic and in Germany in Central Europe.
Dreadnoughtus

***Dreadnoughtus*** is a genus of giant titanosaurian sauropod dinosaur containing a single species, ***Dreadnoughtus schrani***. *D. schrani* is known from two partial skeletons discovered in Upper Cretaceous (Campanian-Maastrichtian; 84–66 Ma) rocks of the Cerro Fortaleza Formation in Santa Cruz Province, Argentina. It is one of the largest of all known terrestrial vertebrates, possessing the greatest mass of any land animal that can be calculated with reasonable certainty. *D. schrani* is known from a more complete skeleton than any other gigantic titanosaurian.
Dot Starlight

**Dot Starlight** is the most profound stargazer in Lalaloopsy Land. She is a dreamer who always has her head in the clouds, distracted by the many wonderous thoughts, ideas, and beautiful sights surrounding her. She loves the stars, which explains she spends her time seeing the stars. Her name is based off of how distant but bright stars are in the night sky - just little dots of star light.

Dusky-legged guan

The **dusky-legged guan** (*Penelope obscura*) is a species of bird in the family Cracidae, the chachalacas, guans, and curassows. It is found in Uruguay, northeastern Argentina and southernmost areas of Paraguay and Brazil; a narrow disjunct range is in northern Argentina extending into south-central Bolivia.
Drill Sergeant

Like many Arkeyan artifacts, Drill Sergeant was buried for centuries – a long forgotten remnant of an ancient powerful civilization. It was only a chance collision with a burrowing Terrafin that led to his systems firing up again. By Arkeyan custom, Drill Sergeant was then obligated to become Terrafin’s servant. This didn’t sit well with the dirt shark, so his first order as master was for Drill Sergeant to not serve him at all… a command he continues to follow zealously to this day.
Eagle Killer

**Eagle Killer** (イーグルキラー *Īgurukirā*), or **Taka-chan** (タカちゃん) if you're close, is one of the Decepticon Beastformers fighting a war on the planet Beast. Born in Cape Mud at the northern end of the country of Nirmud, and growing up in its inhospitable climate has made him a strong and resolute person who doesn't shy away from applying his full strength when met with a challenge. He can use waves to navigate in complete darkness and detect hidden enemies, an ability that can be boosted by his MVP Weapon, the Skeleton Killer, allowing him to see right through anything except the ground. His role in the Decepticon Beastformer forces is a sky maneuvers soldier. He also holds the rank of King of Nirmud over Emperor Baboon, who fights on the opposite side in the war. Okay then.
DoruGreymon

**DoruGreymon** is an Animal Digimon and a carrier of the X Antibody whose name and design are derived from "**D**igital **OR** **U**nknown Greymon". It is a massive Digimon whose form was released through the Interface on its brow by the potent life-force data of the legendary beast, the "Dragon", which slept within the deepest parts of its DigiCore, and that holds the alias of "Final Enemy". With its overwhelming stature it can demolish any dauntlessly courageous Digimon, and even the attacks of the "Nightmare Soldiers" are deflected with one sweep of its wing. As it is highly intelligent, it won't reveal its existence carelessly, so it is difficult to even detect it.[6]
Dracabra Dragon

*Tales from legends inspired by a coven of witches to follow a seemingly lost baby dracabra dragon. They followed its erratic flight until it took rest high atop a tree. There, it clung to a branch and hung upside-down, wary of its observers. The coven dispersed for fear of spooking the young creature. The witches returned when dawn broke and were astonished to find a fully grown dragon! Somehow, the dracabra had managed to sneak off and gorge itself on treats, growing to full size overnight!*
Drouhard's shrew tenrec

**Drouhard's shrew tenrec** (*Microgale drouhardi*), also known as the **striped shrew tenrec**, is a species of mammal in the family Tenrecidae. It is endemic to Madagascar. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest and subtropical or tropical moist montane forest. It is threatened by habitat loss.[2]

This species forages in small family groups, and unusually they maintain contact by the high-pitched sounds produced by the rubbing of hollow quills on their backs.[3]
Downshift (Armada)

**Downshift** *used* to be a real jerk. A speed-demon race champion among the Mini-Cons, there was a time when the fact that he wasn't the absolute #1 would have chapped his lugnuts. He's matured since then, however, and has dedicated himself to fighting for Mini-Con freedom rather than personal glory.

However, some lines of that old bad code still linger in his system. Should the Skyboom shield fall into Decepticon hands and remain there for too long, the corrupting influence can affect all three members of the Race Mini-Con Team even after they disengage, and the selfish, boastful, uber-competitive Downshift resurfaces. While the effect is only temporary, it's not something anyone on the Team wants to go through.
Double Tusk

The **Double Tusks** are the fourth and fifth Elephant Cannons in *Donkey Kong Jungle Beat*. They are the co-rulers of the Chili Pepper Kingdom in the original version, and the Lychee Kingdom in the *New Play Control!* version. One appears very similar to Grave Tusk and Torch Tusk, and the other has a new appearance, being a pink camouflage in color. These Elephant Cannons attack very similarly to the past Elephant Cannons, but split their HP between themselves, each having 250 instead of a single boss with 500 HP. Additionally, rather than getting angry when reaching a set amount of HP, they become angry when the other one is defeated.

However, because there are two Elephant Cannons, both attack simultaneously, complicating the battle. However, they are both able to be defeated in the way the other Elephant Cannons are defeated, and when one is attacked like this, the other attacks without it once, waiting for the other before it attacks again.

Like with the other Elephant Cannons, Donkey Kong must fight them using Blood Pines. Once one Elephant Cannon is defeated, the other one is left to fight alone, but it gains the laser attack and fiery cannonballs used by Torch Tusk, making the battle remain difficult if it still has significant HP left. The attacks also differ between the one that is remaining; while the brown one only attacks with the flaming cannonballs, the pink camouflage one attacks with both flaming and normal cannonballs. Additionally, the brown Elephant Cannon also attacks with the laser twice, once normally, then in reverse.
Dorugamon

**Dorugamon** is an Animal Digimon and a carrier of the X Antibody. It is a ferocious Digimon that possesses the disposition of a beast and a dragon, and is such a heavyweight that most Digimon run away just at the sight of its shadow. Although it exhibits that ferocity of a wild beast when it comes to battles, it also has the intelligence of a dragon, and is usually very docile. Because it has an old-style Interface on its brow, it is presumed to be a Digivolution of a "Prototype Digimon".[4]
Déjà Vu (Skylanders)

On a remote island in Skylands, Déjà Vu tirelessly worked on a machine that would make the perfect three-minute egg in half the time. After pouring over countless magic tomes, and even consulting the lost plans used to create the legendary Tower of Time, she finally completed construction of the huge machine. Unfortunately, a gang of evil giant sea slugs, searching for a way to acquire super speed, learned of her machine and set about to take it at all costs. Slow, but well armed, the massive slugs bore down on the island. But rather than allow her work be used for evil, Déjà Vu quickly jumped into action and set the clock’s hands to thirteen – causing a time overload. Caught up in the blast, she was given an amazing power over time, which she then used to stop the evil slugs in their tracks and spin them home. Now as a Skylander, Déjà Vu uses her incredible powers to turn back the clock on evil!
Eastern lowland olingo

The **eastern lowland olingo** (*Bassaricyon alleni*) is a species of olingo from South America, where it is known from the lowlands east of the Andes in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Guyana, Peru and Venezuela.[1][3] It is the only olingo species found east of the Andes.[2] The Latin species name honors Joel Asaph Allen, the American zoologist who first described the genus *Bassaricyon*.[4]
Donkeycrat

*"A creature capable of carrying the weight of liberty on it's shoulders, the Donkeycrat fights for those that cannot fight for themselves. It's never-ending job as the voice for those in need keeps it moving forward and arguing for their rights. The Donkeycrat cares for others, but beware, it's known to be quite stubborn!"*
Drillhorn (Victory)

**Drillhorn** (ドリルホーン *Doriruhōn*) is the veteran strategist amongst the Breastforce group. He is very knowledgeable and very tough... and can be *quite*opinionated, to the point of being stupidly bull-headed. His adherence to past battle experiences can often leave him unprepared for unexpected changes in the battlefield.

Drillhorn is accompanied by his Breast Animal partner, Hornbreast, a robotic rhino that can transform into either his chestplate or a hand-held blaster. Like his fellow Breastforce warriors, he is also armed with an Electromagnetic Nunchaku.

Drillhorn can also combine with his Breastforce teammates to form Liokaiser, becoming the left leg of the super robot.
Drop bear

A **drop bear** (sometimes **dropbear**) is a hoax in contemporary Australian folklore featuring a predatory, carnivorous version of the koala (*Phascolarctos cinereus*). This imaginary animal is commonly spoken about in tall tales designed to scare tourists. While koalas are typically docile herbivores (and notably, not bears), drop bears are described as unusually large and vicious marsupials that inhabit treetops and attack unsuspecting people (or other prey) that walk beneath them by dropping onto their heads from above.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7]
Dracorex

***Dracorex*** is a dinosaur genus of the family Pachycephalosauridae, from the Late Cretaceous of North America. The type (and only known) species is *Dracorex hogwartsia*, meaning "dragon king of Hogwarts". It is known from one nearly complete skull (the holotypeTCMI 2004.17.1), as well as four cervical vertebrae: the atlas, third, eighth and ninth. These were discovered in the Hell Creek Formationin South Dakota by three amateur paleontologists from Sioux City, Iowa. The skull was subsequently donated to the Children's Museum of Indianapolis for study in 2004, and was formally described by Bob Bakker and Robert Sullivan in 2006.[1] However, Jack Horner *et al.*suspect that it is a juvenile *Pachycephalosaurus* and an analysis of pachycephalosaur fossils by a joint team from the University of California, Berkeley and the Museum of the Rockies has questioned the validity of two named genera of pachycephalosaur, *Dracorex* and *Stygimoloch*. According to the team, specimens of *Dracorex* and *Stygimoloch* might actually represent earlier growth stages of *Pachycephalosaurus*. As this article on the UC Berkeley website says, "The confusion is traced to their bizarre head ornaments, ranging from shields and domes to horns and spikes, which changed dramatically with age and sexual maturity, making the heads of youngsters look very different from those of adults."[2]
Doublecross (Transformers)

You can't depend on **Doublecross** (aka **Twinferno**), since he is literally of two minds about... well, everything. Each of his beast heads has its own personality and they can't agree on anything. Make a deal or set plans with one hissing half of Doublecross and you'll likely find the other knew nothing about it and refuses to help. And don't think that getting him to transform to robot mode will help, as there's no way of knowing which mind is in control. Just about the only thing they can agree with themselves on is destroying Decepticons. Thankfully they are, at least, good at that.
Doomwings (Prime)

**Doomwings** (噩兆之翼 *Èzhào Zhī Yì*) would very literally stab his teammate in the back if he could get some benefit for it. Despite everybody doubting his loyalty to the Decepticon cause, Megatron still assigns Doomwings with important tasks, due to his unrivaled aerial capabilities. He's more than happy with his lot in life, as it means he can defect from the Decepticons once the war takes a turn for the worse for them. And perhaps even kick 'em while they're down.
Dozer Dragon

*Related to the Demolition Dragon, the Dozer Dragon specialized in deep-mine excavations. Utilizing the explosive power of dynamite, the Dozer Dragon pinpoints strategic locations for the greatest impact in the dense bedrock. Clearing the rubble only takes moments with the Dozer Dragon's reinforced wingspan.*
Crowmax

**Crowmax** (クローマックス *Kurōmakkusu*) is one of the Decepticon-affiliated Beastformers attempting a brutal takeover of the planet Beast. His role in the Decepticon Beastformer forces is Air Staff Officer. He holds the rank of Emperor of Nupal, the country in whose mountain region he was born, under King Black Jaguar... who is fighting on the opposite side in the war. Okay then.
Double-striped pug

The **double-striped pug** *(Gymnoscelis rufifasciata)* is a moth of the family Geometridae. It is a widespread and common species, being found throughout the Palearctic region, including the Near East and North Africa.

This is a variable species but always easy to recognize due to the two prominent dark fascia across each forewing which give the species its common name.The forewing ground colour is ranges from light to dark reddish brown.The crosslines are distinct. The inner margin of the pale white sub-marginal line bears black marks. The hindwings are pale grey with darker fringes, darker lines and a small black discal spot. There is a dark band across the basal segments of the abdomen.The wingspan is 15–19 mm.

Two, sometimes three, broods are produced each year and the adults are on the wing in April and May (sometimes earlier), July and August, and sometimes later in the autumn. Later broods are more heavily marked.It flies at night and is attracted to light and flowers, both of its food plants and others.

The larva feeds on the flowers of a huge range of plants (see list below) and has also been known to feed on the larvae of other Lepidoptera. The species overwinters as a pupa.
Dune Bug

Hailing from a race of beetles changed by the powerful secrets hidden in a buried Arkeyan city, Dune Bug was next in line to become the defender of those secrets. As a small pupa, Dune Bug and his father would travel to the ruins where he learned to read the ancient writings using his father's magic staff. On the day Dune Bug was to be given his own magic staff, the city fell under attack by the evil Sand Mages of Doom, who were after the secret Arkeyan tomes. Knowing what he had to do, Dune Bug used his magic to defeat the Mages and bury the city deeper into the ground until it was forever out of their reach. Dune Bug earned his magic staff that day - and a place alongside the Skylanders.
Ecuador poison frog

The **Ecuador poison frog** (*Ameerega bilinguis*)[1] is a species of frogs in the family Dendrobatidae found in Colombia, Ecuador, and possibly Peru. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, rivers, intermittent rivers, freshwater marshes, and intermittent freshwater marshes. It is threatened by habitat loss.[2] The flashy and brilliant colors of this species constitutes a warning for its potential predators that its skin produces poison, a feature that makes it an undesirable food source. It is very common to hear the male singing from slightly elevated areas in search of a female. After the eggs hatch, the adults transport the tadpoles on their backs to ponds, where the tadpoles complete their development.
East African oryx

The **East African oryx** (*Oryx beisa*), also known as the **beisa**[4] is a species of antelope from East Africa. It has two subspecies: the common beisa oryx (*Oryx beisa beisa*) found in steppe and semidesert throughout the Horn of Africa and north of the Tana River, and the fringe-eared oryx (*Oryx beisa callotis*) south of the Tana River in southern Kenya and parts of Tanzania. In the past, some taxonomists considered it a subspecies of the gemsbok (*Oryx gazella*), but they are genetically distinct; the diploid chromosome count is 56 for the beisa and 58 for the gemsbok.[*citation needed*] The species is listed as Near Threatened by the IUCN.
Duosion

Duosion is pale green with a large head, stubby arms, and a body that tapers to a point at the bottom. It has oval, black eyes and a red, diamond-shaped mouth. It is encased in a darker green, gelatinous substance that forms small, round bumps on the lower sides and over Duosion's head. A small circular piece of matter floats inside this substance over this Pokémon's head. It has two brains, which occasionally causes it to attempt two different actions at once. However, its exhibits greater psychic powers when the brains think alike.
Dracomon

**Dracomon** is a Dragon Digimon. It is an ancient, pure-blooded Dragon Digimon that is said to be the "Progenitor" of all Dramon-type Digimon. It possesses physical ability to a degree that could not be imagined from its small build, and both its power and its quick wits are top class among Rookie Digimon. Although its personality is ferocious, Dracomon can show its gentle side only to the others it has recognized. It has wings, but it is unable to fly because they are not sufficiently developed. Also, it has a nature whose primary trait is wanting to collect "shiny things", with an especially strange attachment to gems and metals, and it eats and assimilates its favorite things. Amongst the scales that cover Dracomon's whole body, there is one scale that is called the "Gekirin" (逆鱗?).[5] If it is touched there, Dracomon loses its mind to an excess of anger, and indiscriminately fires its "G Shurunen".[6]
Edmontosaurus

***Edmontosaurus*** (/ɛdˌmɒntəˈsɔːrəs/ *ed-MON-tə-SAWR-əs*) is a genus of hadrosaurid (duck-billed) dinosaur. It contains two known species: *Edmontosaurus regalis* and *Edmontosaurus annectens*. Fossils of *E. regalis* have been found in rocks of western North America that date from the late Campanian stage of the Cretaceous Period 73 million years ago, while those of *E. annectens* were found in the same geographic region but in rocks dated to the end of the Maastrichtian stage of the Cretaceous, 66 million years ago. *Edmontosaurus* was one of the last non-avian dinosaurs, and lived alongside dinosaurs like *Triceratops* and *Tyrannosaurus* shortly before the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event.

*Edmontosaurus* included some of the largest hadrosaurid species, measuring up to 12 metres (39 ft) long and weighing around 4.0 metric tons (4.4 short tons). Evidence does exist in the form of two fossilized specimens housed at the Museum of the Rockies for an even greater maximum size of 15 m (49 ft) and weighing 9.07 metric tons (10.00 short tons) for *Edmontosaurus annectens*.[1] Several well-preserved specimens are known that include not only bones, but in some cases extensive skin impressions and possible gut contents. It is classified as a genus of saurolophine (or hadrosaurine) hadrosaurid, a member of the group of hadrosaurids which lacked large, hollow crests, instead having smaller solid crests or fleshy combs.[2]

The first fossils named *Edmontosaurus* were discovered in southern Alberta (named after Edmonton, the capital city), in the Horseshoe Canyon Formation (formerly called the lower Edmonton Formation). The type species, *E. regalis*, was named by Lawrence Lambe in 1917, although several other species that are now classified in *Edmontosaurus* were named earlier. The best known of these is *E. annectens*, named by Othniel Charles Marsh in 1892; originally as a species of *Claosaurus*, known for many years as a species of *Trachodon*, and later as *Anatosaurus annectens*. ***Anatosaurus*** and ***Anatotitan*** are now generally regarded as synonyms of *Edmontosaurus*.

*Edmontosaurus* was widely distributed across western North America. The distribution of *Edmontosaurus* fossils suggests that it preferred coasts and coastal plains. It was a herbivore that could move on both two legs and four. Because it is known from several bone beds, *Edmontosaurus* is thought to have lived in groups, and may have been migratory as well. The wealth of fossils has allowed researchers to study its paleobiology in detail, including its brain, how it may have fed, and its injuries and pathologies, such as evidence for tyrannosaur attacks on a few edmontosaur specimens.
Eciton burchellii

***Eciton burchellii*** is a species of New World army ant in the genus *Eciton*. This species, one of the most extensively studied ant species, consists of expansive, organized swarm raids that give it the informal name, ***Eciton* army ant**[2] This species displays polymorphic caste features, with the soldier ants having much larger heads and mandibles. The colony lives in bivouacs, which are routinely moved as the foraging paths change. *Eciton burchellii*colonies cycle between stationary and more active nomadic phases. The colony raids are maintained by the use of pheromones, can be 200 metres (660 ft) long, and employ up to 200,000 ants. Colony members have been observed to fill "potholes" in the foraging trail, allowing for the faster and easier movement of captured prey back to the nest. Numerous antbirds parasitize the *Eciton burchellii* by using their raids as a source of food. In terms of geographical distribution, this species is found in the Amazon jungle and Central America.
Drop Bear (rodeo stampede)

The Drop Bear is small in size, and is mostly dark grey. It has sharp grey claws on its front paws, with a tinge of white at the bottom of its arms. It walks on all four legs, with its back legs being longer than its front. It has a white belly and white ears with frills at the end of each. Its head is wide, and features eyes that give a menacing feel, a round nose and a pink mouth with sharp white teeth.
Echo

Echo lived in an undersea kingdom that was built around an enormous oyster shell, and at its center was the Pearl of Wisdom. Every day water dragons from all around the kingdom would come to ask questions of the Pearl. Because this was a sacred ritual, anyone living near the Pearl were required to speak only in whispers. This was challenging for Echo, who lived directly next to it. She had a gift – and it was loud – and often got her in trouble. One day, a gang of sea horses known as the Aqua Jocks rode into town and claimed the Pearl for themselves. They cast an unbreakable bubble around it and began dragging it away with enormous chains. The nearby water dragons, who had been quiet for so long, were unable to even call for help. Then Echo appeared – and with her loudest sonar blast, she shattered the bubble and blew the sea horses out of the kingdom! Her heroic actions caught the attention of Gill Grunt, who recruited her as a Skylander. Now Echo sounds off against evil all throughout Skylands!
Elachistocleis surinamensis

***Elachistocleis surinamensis*** (Spanish: *Sapito Apuntado De Surinam*) is a species of frog in the Microhylidae family. It is found in Suriname, Trinidad and Tobago, Venezuela, and possibly Guyana. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, moist savanna, and intermittent freshwater marshes. It is threatened by habitat loss.
East African lion

The **East African lion** (*Panthera leo melanochaita*)[1] is a lion population located primarily in East Africa. In this part of Africa, lions occur in Ethiopia, Kenya, Somalia, South Sudan, Tanzania and Uganda, but are regionally extinct in Djibouti, Egypt and Eritrea.[6] Lion populations in the East African range countries have increasingly declined since the turn of the century.[7]

Formerly, the East African lion was recognized as being divided into several distinct subspecies with the scientific names *Panthera leo massaica*, *P. l. hollisteri* and *P. l. nyanzae*.[2][8] They were known as **Masai lion**, **Somali lion**, **Abyssinian lion** and **Uganda lion**, depending on the countries where individuals had been captured for zoological collections.[9] 21st century authors refer to the overall population as the East African lion.[10][11]

In 2016, IUCN Red List assessors had subsumed all African lion populations to *Panthera leo leo*.[6] The subspecific status of lions in the Horn of Africa has not yet been fully resolved.[1]
Dugong

The **dugong** (/ˈduːɡɒŋ/, /ˈdjuːɡɒŋ/; *Dugong dugon*) is a medium-sized marine mammal. It is one of four living species of the order Sirenia, which also includes three species of manatees. It is the only living representative of the once-diverse family Dugongidae; its closest modern relative, Steller's sea cow (*Hydrodamalis gigas*), was hunted to extinction in the 18th century. The dugong is the only strictly marineherbivorous mammal.

The dugong is the only sirenian in its range, which spans the waters of some 40 countries and territories throughout the Indo-West Pacific. The dugong is largely dependent on seagrass communities for subsistence and is thus restricted to the coastal habitats which support seagrass meadows, with the largest dugong concentrations typically occurring in wide, shallow, protected areas such as bays, mangrovechannels, the waters of large inshore islands and inter-reefal waters. The northern waters of Australia between Shark Bay and Moreton Bayare believed to be the dugong's contemporary stronghold.

Like all modern sirenians, the dugong has a fusiform body with no dorsal fin or hind limbs. The forelimbs or flippers are paddle-like. The dugong is easily distinguished from the manatees by its fluked, dolphin-like tail, but also possesses a unique skull and teeth. Its snout is sharply downturned, an adaptation for feeding in benthic seagrass communities. The molar teeth are simple and peg-like unlike the more elaborate molar dentition of manatees.

The dugong has been hunted for thousands of years for its meat and oil. Traditional hunting still has great cultural significance in several countries in its modern range, particularly northern Australia and the Pacific Islands. The dugong's current distribution is fragmented, and many populations are believed to be close to extinction. The IUCN lists the dugong as a species vulnerable to extinction, while the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species limits or bans the trade of derived products. Despite being legally protected in many countries, the main causes of population decline remain anthropogenic and include fishing-related fatalities, habitat degradation and hunting. With its long lifespan of 70 years or more, and slow rate of reproduction, the dugong is especially vulnerable to extinction.
Dreadwing (Classics)

**Dreadwing** is the leader of the Predator Attack Team, a trio of vicious robotic hunting animals who are always on the prowl. Unlike his teammates, he's all business, killing his prey in the most efficient way possible. Oftentimes, his first attack is the only one he needs to take a 'bot out. Even after a job is done, he keeps a collected exterior, and doesn't fraternize. Between his performance on the battlefield, and his tendency to keep silent and simply stare at his teammates while they do all the talking, Dreadwing unnerves even those he works with most closely.[1]
Drysdale hardyhead

The **Drysdale hardyhead** (*Craterocephalus helenae*) is a species of fish in the family Atherinidae endemic to the Drystale River in Western Australia.[1] It is listed as near threatened on the IUCN Red List and rare under the Australian EPBC Act 1999.[2]

Little is known about the biology or ecology of this species, but it is an omnivore which feeds on aquatic insects, small crustaceans and algae.[2]
Drama Dragon

The range of emotions a Drama Dragon can experience and communicate make them incredibly versatile performers. Enjoying their time in the spotlight, these dragons aim to entertain their audiences with tales of sorrow and acts of laughter. No matter what may be happening around them; a Drama Dragon knows the show must always go on.
Eastern newt

The **eastern newt** (*Notophthalmus viridescens*) is a common newt of eastern North America. It frequents small lakes, ponds, and streams or near-by wet forests. The eastern newt produces tetrodotoxin which makes the species unpalatable to predatory fish and crayfish.[2] It has a lifespan of 12 to 15 years in the wild, and may grow to five inches in length. These animals are common aquarium pets, being either collected from the wild or sold commercially. The striking bright orange juvenile stage, which is land-dwelling, is known as a **red eft**. Some sources blend the general name of the species and that of the **red-spotted newt** subspecies into **eastern red-spotted newt** (although there is no "western" one).[3][4]
Durian Kingdom

The **Durian Kingdom** is the twelfth kingdom in *Donkey Kong Jungle Beat*. This kingdom is characterized as a fortified mountain. In the original version of the game, it is the fourth kingdom linked to the J Barrel and can be accessed by completing all the kingdoms linked to the K Barrel and collecting eighteen or more Crests. In the *New Play Control!* version, it is the third kingdom linked to the B Barrel and is accessed by completing the Melon Kingdom. The Durian Kingdom is the dominion of Ninja Kong and Ninjapes. Donkey Kong travels through this kingdom to fight the mighty Ninja Kong, and at the end of every level he eats a giant durian.
Edestus

***Edestus*** is a genus of eugeneodontid holocephalids that lived throughout the world's oceans from the Late Devonian[1] to the late Carboniferous. All of the species are known only from their teeth. The term "edestid" is often used to refer to any or all members of the order Eugeneodontiformes, though, strictly speaking, "edestid" properly refers only to members of the family Edestidae. *Edestus* is a Greek name derived from the word *edeste* (to devour), in reference to the aberrant quality and size of the species' teeth.[2] The largest species, *E. giganteus*, could reach 6 m (20 ft) in length, the size of a modern great white shark.[3]

Like its other relatives, such as *Helicoprion*, and unlike modern sharks, the species of *Edestus* grew teeth in curved brackets, and did not shed the teeth as they became worn. In *Edestus*' case, only a single row of teeth occurred in each jaw, so the mouth would have resembled a monstrous pair of pinking shears. The degree of curvature in the teeth brackets, along with size, are distinct in each species.

Because the teeth are sharp and serrated, all of the species are presumed to have been carnivorous. How they captured, or even ate, their prey, along with their appearance, remains pure speculation until a more complete fossil, or skull, is found. One such theory as to how *Edestus* might have hunted and killed its prey was found by Wayne M. Itano of the Natural History Museum of the University of Colorado *et al*. Itano examined specimens of *Edestus minor* from the Late Carboniferous deposits of Texas and discovered wear patterns that suggest that *Edestus* might have hunted by using its bizarre array of teeth to vertically thrash its prey, creating slashing wounds, thus incapacitating and then swallowing its prey. Such a method of predation would prove unique and as-yet-unknown elsewhere in the animal kingdom if correct. Examination of the wear marks of the specimens in Itano's study also suggest that *Edestus* might have preyed on tough-skinned animals, though what kind remains unknown.[4][5]
Eaglemon

**Eaglemon** is a Giant Bird Digimon whose Japanese name is derived from "border crossing", and whose English name and design are derived from the Golden eagle (*Aquila chrysaetos*). It was adopted from a winning entry in the "Digimon Web Dot-art Contest" which belonged to Shun Nabetou from Fukuoka prefecture. Its body is clad in gold armor made of Chrondigizoit, so it deflects every attack. Also, Eaglemon is said to be a form of the Ultimate Digimon "Parrotmon" that digivolved. It is said that it is Eaglemon's duty to annihilate the invaders that enter the Digital World.
Dwarf yellow-headed gecko

The **yellow-headed dwarf gecko** or **dwarf yellow-headed gecko** (*Lygodactylus luteopicturatus*) is a small species of dwarf gecko found in the rocky areas of southern Kenya, eastern Tanzania, and Zanzibar.[2] It can grow up to 90 millimetres (3.5 in), but on average attains a length of 80 millimetres (3.1 in) with a snout-vent (body) length of 39 millimetres (1.5 in). The tail length can be equal to the length of the body from snout to the anus (SVL or Snout-Vent Length).[3]
Dragon boat

A **dragon boat** is a human-powered watercraft. They were traditionally made in the Pearl River Delta region of China's southern Guangdong Province out of teak wood (mostly imported from Pontianak, Indonesia) to various designs and sizes. In other parts of China, different kinds of wood are used to build these traditional watercraft. It is one of a family of traditional paddled long boats found throughout Asia, Africa, the Pacific islands and also Puerto Rico. Currently, boats are being made for competitive purposes out of carbon fiber and other lightweight materials.

Dragon boats are the basis of the team paddling sport of dragon boat racing, a watersport which has its roots in an ancient folk ritual of contending villagers, which has been held for over 2000 years throughout southern China. While competition has taken place annually for more than 20 centuries as part of religious ceremonies and folk customs, dragon boat racing has emerged in modern times as an international sport, beginning in Hong Kong in 1976. But the history of dragon boats in competition reaches as far back as the same era as the original games of Olympia in ancient Greece. Both dragon boat racing and the ancient Olympiad included aspects of religious observances and community celebrations along with competition.

For competition events, dragon boats are generally rigged with decorative Chinese dragon heads and tails. At other times (such as during training), decorative regalia is usually removed, although the drum often remains aboard for drummers to practice. For races, there are 18-20 people in a large boat, and 8-10 for a small boat, not including the steersperson (helm) and the drummer.

Dragon boat races were traditionally held as part of the annual Duanwu Festival or Duen Ng observance in China. Not understanding the significance of Duanwu, 19th-century European observers of the racing ritual referred to the spectacle as a "dragon boat festival". This is the term that has become known in the West.

Dragon boat racing, like Duanwu, is observed and celebrated in many areas of east Asia with a significant population of ethnic Chinese such as Singapore, Malaysia, and the Riau Islands, as well as having been adopted by the Ryukyu Islands since ancient times. The date on which races were held is referred to as the "double fifth" since Duanwu is reckoned as the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, which often falls on the Gregorian calendar month of June and occasionally in May or July. Duanwu is reckoned annually in accordance with the traditional calendar system of China, which is a combination of solar and lunar cycles, unlike the solar-based Gregorian calendar system.

In December 2007, the central government of the People's Republic of China added Duanwu, along with Qingming and Mid-Autumn festivals, to the schedule of national holidays.
Ebidramon

**Ebidramon** is a Crustacean Digimon whose name and design are derived from "Shrimp (*Pandalus borealis*)(海老 *Ebi*?) Dramon". It is a nonconformist of the Dramon-type which has a tough, shrimp-like shell and gigantic pincers. If one is misled by its outward appearance and makes light of Ebidramon, they will become prey of the offensive ability characteristic of the Dramon-type.
Dwarf elephant

**Dwarf elephants** are prehistoric members of the order Proboscidea which, through the process of allopatric speciation on islands, evolved much smaller body sizes (around 1.5-2.3 metres) in comparison with their immediate ancestors. Dwarf elephants are an example of insular dwarfism, the phenomenon whereby large terrestrial vertebrates (usually mammals) that colonize islands evolve dwarf forms, a phenomenon attributed to adaptation to resource-poor environments and selection for early maturation and reproduction. Some modern populations of Asian elephants have also undergone size reduction on islands to a lesser degree, resulting in populations of pygmy elephants.

Fossil remains of dwarf elephants have been found on the Mediterranean islands of Cyprus, Malta (at Ghar Dalam), Crete (in Chania at Vamos, Stylos and in a now under water cave on the coast), Sicily, Sardinia, the Cyclades Islands and the Dodecanese Islands. Other islands where dwarf stegodon have been found are Sulawesi, Flores, Timor, other islands of the Lesser Sundas and Central Java, all islands are in Indonesia. The Channel Islands of California once supported a dwarf species descended from Columbian mammoths,[1] while small races of woolly mammoths were once found on Saint Paul Island; the mammoths on Wrangel island are no longer considered dwarfs.
Drimogemon

**Drimogemon** is an Animal Digimon whose name and design are derived from drill and the mole (*Mogera wogura*) (土竜 *Mogura*?). It moves underground at high speeds with the gigantic drill attached to its snout. It is an extremely rare Digimon to come across because it is always digging deep underground. Although it has a meek, shy personality, it is fairly mischievous, and sometimes it takes the favorite bones that Garurumonhas buried underground and hides them in different locations. If it were to have been discovered later than NiseDrimogemon, it could have ended up being called "Nise" (偽? lit. "Imitation").
ElDradimon

**ElDradimon** is a Mutant Digimon. It once wandered into the research data for ancient ruins on a neglected computer, and over a long period time it unified with that data. If it retracts its head, arms, and legs, it looks like nothing more than the ruins of an ancient fortress. Due to the enormous quantity of research data it holds, it has become a slow-witted Digimon with a large build, but it is probably difficult to bring down even if it is attacked by scores of Digimon. It is definitely an impregnable Digimon.
Drill Bit (Kre-O)

We won't bore you with the details, but the appearance of **Drill Bit** doesn't augur well for any Autobots who get in his way. He knows the drill—he'll stop at nothing to dig up his quarry, and his favorite word is *"MINE!"*

He can also form part of the super robot Devastator. We'll let that sink in.
