Sengazelle (SciiFii)

The sengazelle (Caprogale elephantulus) is a species of sengi or elephant shrew that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the grasslands, shrublands, and scrublands across southern Africa to help boost biodiversity. The sengazelle is most closely related to the bushveld sengi (Elephantulus intufi). The sengazelle is a very large member for its family, growing to be about the size of a capybara (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris). The sengazelle is adapted to dry environments and has an omnivorous diet of grasses, leaves and some invertebrates. Unlike most other species of elephant shrews, the sengazelle is a social animal that can live in groups consisting of up to about 20 to 45 individuals at a time. The conservation status of the sengazelle is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the sengazelle's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
