Isanosaurus (SciiFii)

Isanosaurus palaeopoda (meaning "ancient-footed Isan [north-eastern Thailand] lizard") is a species of non-avian sauropod dinosaur that originally lived approximately 210 million years ago during the Late Triassic (late Norian to Rhaetian stages) in Thailand as an extinct species, Isanosaurus attavipachi, and the genus itself was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced throughout the rainforests, wetlands, forests, open woodlands, grasslands, and shrublands across mainland southern and southeastern Asia to help boost biodiversity. Like other sauropods, Isanosaurus palaeopoda has a quadrupedal locomotion (with all four legs on the ground). The legs of Isanosaurus palaeopoda are column-like, although they retain two extra visible claws on its front feet, as Isanosaurus palaeopoda is a basal sauropod. A rather small sauropod unlike many of the more advanced sauropods, Isanosaurus palaeopoda grows to be about 6.5 meters (21.3 feet) in length and weigh between 2-3 tons on average. Like many other sauropods, Isanosaurus palaeopoda is a herbivore that primarily feeds on leaves, pine needles, shrubs, fruits, nuts, and high-growing cycads and ferns. Isanosaurus palaeopoda is nomadic and moves through the forested environments of Asia in large herds, sometimes forming mixed-species herds with elephants and large rhinoceros species. Large herds help these docile creatures to scare off large carnivorous animals, including predatory non-avian theropods and non-dinosaurian carnivorous archosaurs, to name a few, that can occasionally attack the younger ones of their species. The conservation status of Isanosaurus palaeopoda is Near Threatened due to some habitat loss and historic poaching, however, thanks to the conservationists, Isanosaurus palaeopoda is a protected species and is making a comeback.
