Forkface (SciiFii)

The forkface (Ornithodelphis furcacristatus) is a species of fully terrestrial cetacean that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the subtropical and temperate forests of the Azores archipelago to help boost biodiversity. It was difficult to create due to its "third leg", which is actually its modified tail, however, SciiFii has successfully created this animal without any side effects (illnesses, etc). The forkface is a medium-sized animal, growing to be about 3.3 feet (1 meter) tall on average. The forkface is purely carnivorous and primarily prey on a wide range of animals smaller than itself that fits in its mouth, hunting in a manner similar to azhdarchid pterosaurs. It is nocturnal due to predation from larger carnivores and predatory omnivores, using its wiskers, rather than its melon, which is degenerated due to being a land animal, in order to find its way around in the dark. Unlike several other terrestrial whales and most land mammals in general, the forkface has developed a thick, keratin beak to help it feed on tougher foods than most terrestrial whales. Unlike most other mammals, having a tough beak doesn't pose a significant problem for suckling its young, since it retained its aquatic relatives' method of squirting milk directly into the mouths of its calves. It is a solitary animal in most of its life except during breeding seasons, when males try to find females to mate with. The conservation status of the forkface in Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the forkface's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
