Giant forest penguin (SciiFii)

The giant forest penguin (Therosphenychus robustus) is a species of large, fully terrestrial penguin that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the wetlands, forests, and open woodlands across New Zealand to help boost biodiversity. As one of the largest penguin species, hence its name, the giant forest penguin can grow up to around 7.8 feet (2.3 meters) tall and weighing between 136 and 226 kilograms (300 and 500 lbs) on average. The giant forest penguin is largely herbivorous unlike most penguins, feeding primarily on leaves, pine needles, twigs, fruits, flowers, and nectar, however, it may occasionally feed on insects and carrion to supplement its diet, and because of this varied diet, it usually avoids competition from the already-native moas for food. Unlike most modern-styled birds, the giant forest penguins have a single large claw on each of its forelimbs as opposed to wings or flippers, which are used for pulling down branches for food and for defense against predators. Despite looking pronated, only its claws are facing downwards for defends for foraging, and its wrist bones are entirely supinated, as SciiFii didn't want any pronated wrists in any of the theropods they create or recreate. The giant forest penguin is generally solitary and prefers to live alone in most of its life except during the breeding season that occurs in mid-to-late spring. The female lays a single egg about 2.3 months later, and she guards the egg against any potential predators such as adzebills, until the egg hatches about 7-8 months later by the next early spring. The chick is cared for by its mother for more than 2 years until it is fully independent from its mother, and the species reaches sexual maturity by the fourth year. The average lifespan of the giant forest penguin is usually around 30 and 40 years, although reports of giant forest penguins living to be almost 50 years are not uncommon. The conservation status of the giant forest penguin is Vulnerable due to some habitat loss and, historically, invasive predators and egg-eating animals, however, thanks to the conservationists, the invasive predatory and egg-eating species have been completely eradicated from New Zealand and the giant forest penguin is a protected species.
