Herrerasaurus V2 (SciiFii)

Herrerasaurus terrestris (name meaning "terrestrial Herrera's lizard"), also known as the South American crocolizard, despite not being a crocodilian nor a lizard, is a species of Herrerasauridae dinosaur and is one of the earliest dinosaurs. It originally lived around 231.4 million years ago in the Tirassic and was once extinct, but has since been brought back by SciiFii and, unlike the first species of Herrerasaurus (re)created by SciiFii, has been introduced intentionally to South American open woodlands, grasslands, shrublands, and scrublands to help boost biodiversity. It is controversial whether or not it is a theropod or a basal saurischian related to them and/or sauropodomorphs. Herrerasaurus terrestris is a medium-sized carnivore that has a lifestyle similar to a grizzly bear, being either a scavenger or a fish-eater most of its time, only to occasionally feed on land animals as big as a large pig. However, its lifecycle is very similar to birds and crocodilians, laying eggs about as much eggs and as often as American alligators, the eggs hatch around 3 months after being laid, and the hatchlings are cared for by their parents until they are subadults, when they must fend for themselves. The conservation status of Herrerasaurus terrestris is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts and the species' wide range.
