Northwestern liandaolong (SciiFii)

The northwestern liandaolong (Seculasaurus sylvis), also known as the blue-headed liandaolong, is a species of therizinosaur that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the temperate, boreal, and alpine forests and open woodlands across North America to help boost biodiversity. Although these two-meter herbivores are outwardly similar to the tirgs primarily from the mountains, they are still liandaolong (sub-clade Liandaolongini): usually lowland creatures. Blue-head feathers are densely packed and oily, to shield the skin from the chilling damp, while the eyes and nostrils are placed high, to warn the herbivore of approaching predators. Northwestern liandaolongs, with their long, flexible necks and long legs, look almost like ornithomimids, but their ancestry is given away by their enlarged bellies and hyper-extendable hallux claws. Northwestern liandaolongs can be specious in the northern prairies of North America, and their diversity tapers off quickly south of the 55th parallel (where competition from the grasslands deer and pronghorns can occasionally become fierce), but they thrive in the heavily forested areas. Like the trigs, the liandaolongs are more adapted to forest life. They may be small creatures, but like their relatives, they are armored with 1.5 foot long claws that can do a good amount of damage to a potential attacker. Spring sees small natal herds defending their brood in sheltered gallery forest nests. Summer has the wobbly chicks following their parents in accumulating herds that may number up to half a million adults. Parents and "aunties" frequently dribble crop milk into the mouths of their rapidly growing chicks. The conservation status of the northwestern liandaolong is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the northwestern liandaolong's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
