Sekori fytofago

Weight: 700 - 900 kg (average), 1300 kg (largest specimen ever recorded)

Habitat: Savannah, South Africa



Sekori fytofago is a very aggressive herbivorous kranionid and the largest herbivorous kranionid currently known. They can be considered as larger featherless herbivorous versions of terror birds as their methods of attack involve swinging of their heads and kicking. They can also bite their attacker if necessary and interestingly for a herbivore, has a BFQ of 140. Their meat is reported to taste like tough chicken.



Documentations:

-One has been documented killing a lone buffalo that wandered into its territory.

-One has been documented fighting a female hippo. The hippo decided to run away after sustaining deep cuts and not long after, perished.

-One has been documented fighting off a pride of six lions, sustaining bite and claw marks all over the lower body region, but ended up killing two lions before they decided to run away.

Kraniotherium archaios


Weight: 270 - 330 kg (average)

Habitat: North America (5 ma - 20,000 years ago), South America (2.7 ma - 20,000 years ago)



Not much is known about this extinct kranionid but based on fossil records and ancient cave art, it is thought to have been feared by many animals including man which leads researchers to believe that it may have been an apex predator across many regions or that it may have been territorial or extremely aggressive. Based on a bite force study comparing carnivorous kranionids extant and extinct, Kraniotherium got the best results and is thought to have the strongest bite force out of the kranionid family. It was most likely able to use its tail to balance itself which allows it to take a plantigrade pose and slash anything in front of it much like kangaroos and other kranionids. Like other kranionids, it is thought to have killed prey with a crushing bite to the skull. It is one of the two carnivorous kranionids to have evolved a sharp point at the snout and like a rhino, to use it as a weapon. With their "raptor" forelimbs, they were able to restrain prey by moving the claws downward with a strong force just like a human would when grabbing.

Otori schouteni



Weight: 70 - 100 kg (average), 140 kg (largest specimen ever recorded)

Habitat: Sumatra, Borneo



Otori schouteni is a nocturnal predator that lives with the Sumatran Tiger on one island and the Clouded Leopard on both. It is able to climb and only climbs the tallest trees in order to store prey for future feeding so that they won't be taken by the larger and more ground based Sumatran Tiger. Their diet consists of cattle, tapirs, rhinos and other predators excluding their own kind although they prefer to target the youngest and smallest out of the bunch. These kranionids are also known to be very opportunistic predators, by intentionally killing tiger cubs when they're alone and then taking them up and eating them on a tree when the mother isn't around. This may be one of the reasons as to why the Sumatran Tiger's population is decreasing. Just like other kranionids, they're able to use their tails to balance themselves which allows them to take a plantigrade pose and slash anything in front of them much like kangaroos.



Documentations:

-They aren't fooled by backwards facing masks unlike tigers, and as a result is the animal most responsible for the deaths of humans living in villages around Sumatra and Borneo.

-One large male has been documented fighting a female tiger and the latter dies later as a result to her wounds.

-One "man-eater" has finally been killed in a village in Sumatra after killing and eating at least 14 people.

Kronoids as a whole:


Kranionids - remember that certain dinosaurs split off into birds? Well, others decided to lose feathers, carnivores became quadruped again, and they evolved strong skulls. This new group of archosaurs have their own name, the kranionids.


Kranionids are divided into two types, just like dinosaurs, with those two being the herbivores and carnivores. Characteristics that all kranionids possess in general, are two large distinctive bands on their tails, skin which is similar to that of a shark, and large eyes on a beak that covers their entire head. Kranionids also lay eggs, and by studies on their blood temperature, are defined as endotherms.



Herbivorous kranionids only have two limbs, with those being the legs. Their body build is similar to that of an ostrich, or theropods from the past. They also possess a beak that covers their entire head, usually in the shape of a weapon, with the most common one being the ax. This is fitting, since, it is very tough when compared to mammalian skulls, and this is their only way of defending themselves (besides kicking and stomping). They are able to swing their heads in conjunction with the neck in all directions with full force to attack potential predators, and to show dominance in other male kranionids for finding a mate. The largest herbivorous kranionid of all time (including extinct animals), is Sekori fytofago, a species that lives in South Africa, and has an average weight of 800 kg:



(Sekori fytofago)

Weight: 700 - 900 kg (average), 1300 kg (largest specimen ever recorded)

Habitat: Savannah, South Africa

Conservation Status: Threatened (due to size)

Sekori fytofago is very aggressive and territorial when compared to its more tolerant Australian relative. It is highly recommended to not go near one, but if necessary, make sure it is put to sleep with sedatives. This behavior is most likely due to the amount of competition in the area, with large predators and herbivores all around. They are solitary, and only form large groups in mating season to challenge other males for access to the females. They can be considered as larger featherless herbivorous versions of terror birds. Their meat is reported to taste like tough chicken.

One has been documented killing a lone buffalo that wandered into its territory.

One has been documented fighting a female hippo. The hippo decided to run away after sustaining deep cuts and not long after, perished.

Carnivorous kranionids unlike their herbivorous counterparts, have four limbs. Just like modern felines today, they use their front limbs to grapple and claw their prey into submission. However, unlike felines, they bite wherever they can get their jaws to; they don't practice precision biting. Their "beak" differs from herbivorous kranionids in the sense that they can open their mouths as wide as a thylacine would, and that unlike eagles who have the sharp point at the end of the beak, have it all over their "beak", this would mean their mouths looked like it was made of double-edged knives. These beak adaptations however, aren't teeth, but were thick outgrowths of the maxillary and mandibular bones. They also used their snouts as weapons just like rhinos would, and some had evolved a sharp point here to complement this. These kranionids also have three fingers and toes on each limb. One finger on the front limb however, was substantially larger than the others, and carried a large claw, which was probably the main tool used for subduing prey. Because they aren't retractable, they would get worn out and become blunt. To counter this, just like mesozoic raptors, kranionids have evolved a way of keeping this large claw off the ground. These kranionids also possess a thick tail, mostly for balance which is seen in the smaller arboreal ones. When in fights, they can take a plantigrade pose by placing their thick tails to the ground and balancing themselves in accordance with the hind legs much like kangaroos. This allows them to freely slash anything in front of them with their claws. The largest carnivorous kranionid, Kraniotherium archaios lived in North and South America, had an average weight of 300 kg and lived from 5 million years ago before going extinct about 20,000 years ago. With this time range, it would have been one of the most successful terrestrial predators of all time. It would have been a robust animal:



Documentations:

It is one of the most successful terrestrial predators of all time, based on its time and geographical range throughout America.

It is speculated to have moved like a thylacine, just like its modern relatives do, mostly due to having a short tarsus and hind leg which makes it do a hopping motion.

It probably would not have been scansorial or arboreal, due to its heavy build.

Based on fossil records, it got into confrontations with smilodon, arctotherium, dire wolves, ground sloths, giant jaguars, glyptodon, and man.

Most of the animals' killed by Kraniotherium usually had holes and slash marks on the bone, with the most being found on the skulls of the victims leading researchers to suggest that Kraniotherium archaios may have practiced precision biting on the skull, however, this is rather unlikely due to the nature of extant kranionids.

Compared to other carnivorous kranionids, it most likely would have had the strongest bite force.

Its extinction was most likely caused by man combined with the ongoing climate change that was already harming a lot of animals.

Flark/Carcharopteryx








Kingdom: Animalia

Phylum: Chordata

Clade: Fish

Order: Carcharopteridea



Flarks are a unique strange type of fish. Originally evolved from sharks, flarks have radically changed their habitat and behavior by learning how to fly. Their fins transformed into wings while their nostrils and gills turned into primitive lungs. Flarks are still unable to survive far away from the water, similarly to amphibians.



Description:

Flarks are mostly smaller than their aquatic cousins, reaching 1-2 meters in length, with a wingspan ranging from 1 to 4 meters. The smallest species of flark has the size of a sparrow, while the largest species is larger than an eagle. Their fins are very large and aerodynamic. Thr side fins provide the powered flight, while the fins on it's back and tail can regulate the flight trajectory. Flarks still have sharp serrated shark teeth, as well as the simillar head shape.



Behavior:

Flarks are social animals. They live in packs and share common nesting sights in shallow waters, where they raise their offspring. A juvenile flark is flightless. They spend in water the first two months of their life, and then learn to fly, after their aquatic gills form into primitive lungs. Upon reaching adolescence, young male flarks produce their offspring from random females, and often fight for the right to mate, so the best flying sharks continue their bloodlines. Flarks are able to fly, swim and walk on land. On land, flarks are slow and can only sit next to their food, or rest near the beach. Most of their time they spend under water or in the air. Flarks are also known to hunt in packs, and their large packs can be dangerous even for a large animal.



Diet:

All flarks are predators, just like sharks. Their smallest species feed on small rodents and insects, while the larger ones can hunt birds, fish and small to mid-sized land animals. In large packs they can hunt giant animals. Usually, flarks only hunt something they can carry, but if their pack kills a large prey, they land around the carcass and rip it apart.





On Earth, flarks could became some agressive predators. A single flark can usually hunt a baby deer, or any other animal of it's size. Prey of common flark does not exceed 60 kilograms, so a flark can carry this prey while it flies. In packs, flarks usually hunt larger animals, like rhinos. The size of their prey depends on the number of flark pack members. In a pack of 20 they can even attack an elephant, but such attacks are relatively rare. In water, a flark can attack any fish that does not exceed it's own size, so it could take the prey out of water. If the prey is too large, it can attract sharks. Although flarks and sharks are close cousins and share many common features, in water sharks are superior.
