Parasaurolophus V2 (SciiFii)

Parasaurolophus ferus is a species of herbivorous ornithopod dinosaur that originally lived in what is now North America and possibly Asia during the Late Cretaceous Period, about 76.5–73 million years ago and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and, unlike Sciifii's first Parasaurolophus species, have been intentionally introduced throughout the forests, swamps, and open woodlands to help boost biodiversity. Parasaurolophus ferus is a herbivore, mainly feeding on fruits, leaves, cycads, ferns, and horsetails, that walks both as a biped and as a quadruped. It is a hadrosaurid, part of a diverse family of Cretaceous dinosaurs known for their range of bizarre head adornments. This species is known for its large, elaborate cranial crest, which at its largest forms a long curved tube projecting upwards and back from the skull. Its crest is used for visual recognition of both species and sex, acoustic resonance, and thermoregulation. It is a herd-dwelling animal and lives in groups up to about 25 at a time. The conservation status of Parasaurolophus ferus is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the animal's wide range and its tolerance to most of human activities.
