Cratoavis (SciiFii)

Cratoavis clamo is a species of enantiornithine bird that originally lived in what is now Brazil during the Early Cretaceous as an extinct species, Cratoavis cearensis, and the genus itself was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and, unlike many primitive non-Aves birds, have been deliberately introduced throughout the modern rainforests across South America to help boost biodiversity. Cratoavis clamo is a rather small bird, growing to be about the size of a large sparrow when fully grown. The males resemble females, but with brighter yellow feathers with a red crest and a pair of ribbon-like feathers extending from the tail, which the females lack. The wings of Cratoavis clamo are long and not built for robust flapping, unlike many birds. Cratoavis clamo is an omnivore that feeds primarily on insects, seeds, and fruits. It is mostly a solitary animal that prefers to spend throughout most of its life alone except during the breeding seasons. During the breeding seasons, the males make loud, scream-like calls to attract the females, akin to a screaming piha's, although deeper sounding and slightly slower. The males also use their ribbon-like tail feathers to attract any potential females. The reproductive lifecycle of Cratoavis clamo is identical to songbirds, although the young are fully developed and can fly on their own within hours after hatching, like other enantiornithine birds. However, the young are still dependent on their parents to find the feed for the young. The conservation status of Cratoavis clamo is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the bird's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
