Palorchestes V2 (SciiFii)

The tapir-nosed wombat (Palorchestes modernus, name meaning "ancient leaper or dancer of modern times"), also known as the pouched tapir or a marsupial tapir, is a species of marsupial of the family Palorchestidae, and was once extinct, but has been brought back from extinction by SciiFii. The tapir-nosed wombat is a herbivore endemic to Australia, living in the marshlands as well as living near shallow lake surrounded by eucalypt woodlands, where it mainly feeds on bark, roots, and leaves with the help of its strong claws and its shirt trunk. It is a large animal, similar in size to a horse, being around 2.5 m (8.2 ft) in length and a body mass exceeding 1,000 kg (2,200 lb). The conservation status of the tapir-nosed wombat is Near Threatened due to some habitat loss and historic poaching, however, the conservationists have since protected tapir-nosed wombats against hunting from poachers and the natural habitats of tapir-nosed wombats are preserved.
