Megalosaurus (SciiFii)

Megalosaurus magnus (name meaning "big great lizard") is a species of large meat-eating theropod dinosaur that originally lived in the Middle Jurassic period (Bathonian stage, 166 million years ago) of Southern England as an extinct species of Megalosaurus and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and, unlike most large carnivorous non-avian theropod dinosaurs, has been intentionally introduced throughout Great Britain to help boost biodiversity. Megalosaurus magnus is a medium-sized animal, growing to be about 20 feet (6 metres) long from nose tip to tail tip on average, and weighing about 700 kilograms (1,500 lb). It is bipedal, walking on stout hindlimbs, its horizontal torso is balanced by a horizontal tail. Its forelimbs are short, though very robust, ending in strong and sharp claws used for dispatching prey. Megalosaurus magnus has a rather large head, equipped with long curved teeth, used for slicing into chunks of flesh. It is generally a robust and heavily muscled animal, and is able to hunt down prey as large as elephants, although it does not prey on large mammals such as the aforementioned elephants, nor hunt domestic pets, livestock, or humans, possibly as a result of genetic engineering, so it only preys on sauropods, hadrosaurs, iguanodonts, large birds, and other non-mammal animals. To keep itself warm in the cold, Megalosaurus magnus is covered in thick, gray, primitive feathers to keep the animal well insulated. Megalosaurus magnus is a solitary animal that spends throughout most of its life alone except during the breeding seasons. The conservation status of Megalosaurus magnus is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts and the dinosaur's wide range.
