Metriacanthosaurus (SciiFii)

Metriacanthosaurus californicum (meaning "California moderately-spined lizard") is a species of metriacanthosaurid dinosaur that originally lived from the upper Oxford Clay of England, dating to the Late Jurassic period, about 160 million years ago (lower Oxfordian) as an extinct species of Metriacanthosaurus, and the genus itself was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and, unlike most other large carnivorous non-avian theropods, was intentionally introduced to the modern forests, swamps, marshlands, open woodlands, shrublands, and grasslands of the western United States to help combat the invasive wild boars and to help boost biodiversity. It is a medium-sized animal, growing on average of about 26.2 (8 meters) long and weigh around 1 tonne (1.1 short tons) when fully grown. It is a carnivore that primarily feeds on carrion and live wild boars, hadrosaurs, iguanodonts, ceratopsians, and young sauropods, but can also feed on fish, man-made waste, along with carrion of native megafauna, to supplement its diet. Despite its predatory reputation, it does not hunt or eat humans or domestic animals, due to being bred to not hunt any people or their pets or livestock, to avoid risks of bounty hunters or farmers attempting to hunt any Metriacanthosaurus californicum. In some cities of Nevada and California, such as Las Vegas (Nevada), Lakewood (California), Anaheim (California), and others, the Metriacanthosaurus californicum have adapted to life in the cities and suburbs due to man-made waste being found in many dumpsters, trash cans, and humans feeding the Metriacanthosaurus californicum any kind of meat (from any wild or domestic animals), making the Metriacanthosaurus californicum completely tame towards people, pets, and domestic livestock. Metriacanthosaurus californicum is a solitary animal in most of its life except during the breeding seasons. The conservation status of the Metriacanthosaurus californicum is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the animal's wide range and its tolerance to most of human activities.
