Pyrotherium (SciiFii)

The false tapiphant (Pyrotherium modernus) is a species of South American ungulate of the order Pyrotheria that originally lived in what is now Argentina and Bolivia during the Late Oligocene as an extinct species, Pyrotherium romeroi, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced to the swamps, mangrooves, and coastlines of the Pacific coasts of South America to help boost biodiversity. Resembling a short-trunked elephant, the false tapiphant can grow to be around 3 metres (9.8 feet) long and stand about 1.50 metres (4.9 ft) tall at the shoulders, with a weight of up to 3,500 kg (7,700 lb). As its name implies, it vaguely resembles the true tapiphants (Astrapothere), with a heavy body was carried by robust legs, a short trunk on its snout, and two pairs of flat, forward-facing tusks in the upper jaw, with a single pair in the lower jaw. The conservation status of the false tapiphant is Vulnerable due to some habitat loss and historic poaching by humans, however, the conservationists are working their best to protect the false tapiphants and their habitats, while also ending poaching.
