Brachycrus (SciiFii)

The false tapir oreodont (Brachycrus allotapirus) is a species of oreodont found across the riverbanks, ponds, swamps, and marshlands of North America. It was once extinct since the Middle Miocene as an extinct species of Brachycrus, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced to the humid habitats of North America to help boost biodiversity. It is usually around 1 meter (3 feet 4 inches) long and is very similar to the native modern tapirs, but with a longer tail and being almost entirely hairless. Like the tapir, it is an amphibious animal coming to the waters to escape dangers or to feed on aquatic plants. It is herbivore that mainly feeds on fruits, leaves, nuts, and aquatic plants, and the is usually a solitary animal except during breeding seasons. The conservation status of the false tapir oreodont is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the false tapir oreodont's wide natural range and its tolerance to most of human activities.
