Catopsalis (SciiFii)

The dorbeaver (Catopsalis striata) is a species of mammal of the order Multituberculata that originally lived from the Paleocene of North America as an extinct species of Catopsalis and the genus itself was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced throughout the modern rainforests, wetlands, forests, open woodlands, forested shrublands, and forested scrublands across North America to help boost biodiversity. The dorbeaver is one of the largest living multituberculates, usually growing to be about the size of a medium-sized beaver, although some specimens have been recorded to be around the size of an average-sized capybara. Covered in deep brown fur with white spots and stripes, the dorbeaver is well-camouflaged in its forested habitat. The dorbeaver has very robust incisors, and cheek teeth with multiple cusps (for which multituberculates are named). The pelvic bones differ from those of other multituberculates in that they are not fused to each other. The dorbeaver has spurs on its ankles, like those of the platypus and echidna, without venom canals within them (present in the platypuses). Dorbeavers have powerful jaw muscles, and their incisors are well adapted for gnawing hard seeds, using a backwards chewing stroke. The dorbeaver is omnivorous, feeding primarily on insects, roots, tubers, seeds, and fruits. Like many other multituberculates, dorbeavers are nocturnal burrowing animals, homeothermic ("warm-blooded"), have somewhat reptilian-looking sprawling postures, and they are able to jump similarly to many other similarly-sized mammals. Outside of mating, dorbeavers usually solitary. Like marsupials, the dorbeaver gives birth to tiny helpless, underdeveloped young, which the mothers care for in their burrows or dens for prolonged periods. The conservation status of the dorbeaver is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the dorbeaver's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
