- Well, the theory that the two morphs are male and females might actually be correct. You might be able to judge male and female dinosaurs by bone structure. However, the shape of the bones in the skull and neck might be a bit odd for that...
Maybe not, look at elephants for example, females don't have (Or if they do, small) tusks, while male elephants do. The bone structure of the skull itself might be frills or other physical differences to make the animal look different based on gender. The difference in neck structure could be there to help anchor the slightly heavier skull better.
But again, it's all hypothesis.
How ya doing DB. | |

| To try and contribute to Mesozoic vs. Cenozoic: I think large animals from the two eras would have equal chances at competition. What advantages does a large raptor have over a big cat? What about an antelope vs an ornithomimosaur? And while dinosaurs reach larger sizes, mammals have the secret advantage of not hatching from eggs, which allows them to start their life much larger than a baby dinosaur. Big hatchlings have to hatch from big eggs, big eggs have to be strong, and strong eggs are hard to break out of. | |

| I guess. I'm going to search through the characters and see what creatures are where. If there's no sea animals, I'll ditch the pelican until later. Last time I was in an animal rp, my character was a crab, and there were no other sea creatures, so I had no one to interact with.
EDIT: Lots of North American animals. Might do something fram that realm of the world. | |

| Well, I just introduced Lucy the Elephant. She just did a lot of stuff that any characters nearby should hear. An elephant trumpet is extremely hard to ignore, just as is talking. | |

| true.
And It took forever but I finally decided on Which sub-species of Leopard I wanted. Had to pick out of 9 recognized and 11 possible ones... I'll have to sheet up sometime around lunch. | |

| I don't normally focus on sub-species because among wild animals there normally isn't a huge difference, but I suppose among leopards it would matter, to a degree. | |

| Uh..Op...you really shouldn't start your character in a place other than the forest where all our characters are. Eukara doesn't very closely resemble Earth-like environments. | |

| In the end I gave up on the Sub-Species. Sorry about the Belated sheet, but here it is. Let me know If i need to add anything. Name:Mitchel "Mitch'' Cornell Age (Human Years): 23 Gender: Male Species: Leopard, Panthera pardus Dietary Preference: Carnivore Appearance: As a human Mitch was an average sized Person. About 5'6" 150 pounds and with blond hair. But that doesn't matter any more does it? Now as a leopard he's much more intimidating. He's a now a 170 pound 8 Ft long killing machine. Like most Leopards he has a light white/yellowish coat with darker colored spots or rings. Here's a pic - Spoiler:
Personality:Well Mitch is a fairly outgoing kind of guy. He likes going out hanging out with his friends and the like. Mall, Movies and the occasional Rock Concert. When he's around other folks he like to talk and stuff, some find him a bit obnoxious for it though. If he's in a group of folks like his friends intelligent discussions aren't uncommon and are about as likely to occur as less rational ones involving more mundane topics. When alone he like the simply read a good book or parse the internet for something to. He likes to sleep in whenever he can and this has lead to him being chronically late at times. He's even lost a few jobs over it. When ever he finds himself in a group of unfamiliar people he ends to feel a bit self conscious until he figures out where he stands with them. Until then he's quite or more reserved. Normally this doesn't take long however and son he's playing whatever part it is his to play. He doesn't like new situations either, but is quick to adapt. Once he's done that he likes to find a good routine to fall into. Abilities: Well Speed, Claws and Sharp teeth are all a given that it's a predator. However Leopards are also skilled at climbing as well. And as most are Nocturnal He has excellent night vision as well. Leopards also have an amazing amount of strength and have been known to haul a carcass' nearly twice there size. Other: Cloud Forest | |

| I'm glad you like it. I enjoy making pictures of the scenery when it comes to stories like this. It helps people envision what the world looks like. Actually, once all our characters meet one another, I'm going to introduce you guys to the great tree spirit, so people know where they are, and what's going on. | |

| Name: Cyrus Age (Human Years): 16 Gender: male Species: Fregata magnificens (Magnificent Frigatebird) Dietary Preference: carnivore (pescavore, to be exact) Appearance: This is what Cyrus looks like. Note that the pouch under his throat can be manually inflated or deflated. length: 39 inches. Wingspan: 85 inches.Personality: Cyrus is a cocky guy, known for being rather hostile at times. Due to his fiery disposition and short temper, Cyrus gets into fight often, usually ending with him getting beaten up, especially now that he's a bird. He's usually semi-sociable, but due to his temper, has never had many friends. He's rather angered by the fact that he is a bird, as he doesn't possess the strength or speed to fight other animals. Because of this, he is even more angry as of late, making him someone you don't exactly want to hang around. He's one of those guys who needs an attitude adjustment. Abilities: Though they may not be the strongest or the fastest, Magnificent Frigatebirds are still incredible creatures. They have an average speed of about 6 mph, which is rather slow. However, Magnificent Frigatebirds have incredible stamina, and are one of the few bird species with the ability to fly for 24 hours straight without needing to rest. They have been known to even sleep while flying, and can reach heights of 1.5 miles if they properly hit thermals. Male frigatebirds like Cyrus also have the ability to inflate large red pouches in their throats to startle attackers and attract mates. Other: cloud forest Name: Aaron Age (Human Years): 17 Gender: male Species: Pandion haliaetus (Osprey) Dietary Preference: pescavore Appearance: This. length: 24 inches. Wingspan: 71 inches. Personality: Aaron is your typical bully. He is a rather talkative fellow, and likes himself quite a lot. He's a major head case, a guy who "loves me some me" in the words of Terrell Owens. The fact that he's probably the strongest seabird around save the occasional pterodactyl is a huge ego boost for him, and he likes to show off by bullying the other sea birds around and stealing others' fish. He's one of those bullies, however, that standing up to just won't work. Unlike the usual bully, Aaron doesn't have a problem with getting in a fight. He has the firepower to do so, and will rip any bird that challenges him to pieces. Abilities: Ospreys, being birds of prey, have very sharp hooked claws designed to dig into fish and hold on tight. Their beaks are just as sharp, allowing them to tear apart fish or aggressive birds. Ospreys are fast fliers, able to hit about 40 mph flying straight, and nearly 80 mph in a dive. Another perk of being an osprey is that ospreys like Aaron have an incredible ability to adapt to almost any environment where there is water and fish. Aaron can comfortably live in almost any climate. Other: cloud forest Might make a third character too. Not sure.

| Ospreys and frigatebirds. Well, now we finally have a decent number of birds. Both are accepted. | |

| eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeexcellent!
Are there any other creatures who are near the ocean here?
Also, I plan on having a kind of rivalry between Aaron and Cyrus, since they both have rather volatile personalities. | |

| Okay, then. I have painted on Gimp the great tree depicted in the story. It's actually in the dead center of the forest where our characters are waking up. | |

| Name: Robert Ruffington Age (Human Years): 15 Gender: Male Species: Larus argentatus (European Herring Gull) Dietary Preference: Omnivore Appearance: This. Robert is also 25 in. long, and weighs 2.83 lb. He has a wingspan of 61 in. Personality: Robert, being a complete nerd, and often being picked on by other kids his age at school before he got transported to Eukara, is known to be a little timid, and a bit of a loner. He believes that it is impossible for him to have friends, though he still tries anyway, due to a secret desperation to make some. If you do manage to befriend him, however, he will be loyal, as long as you don't break his trust. It's very hard for him to forgive if you do that. He also tends to be socially awkward at times, though he usually has good intentions. Abilities: Robert's main ability is flight, though this is pretty obvious. He also has large, wide feet with thick, leathery skin which allows him excellent weight distribution and protection from sharp objects (he may simply balance himself on top of these obstacles with little apparent concern). He can dive underwater, though can only get to 1-2 meters deep, due to natural buoyancy. He also has an unhinging jaw, which allows him to consume large prey. Other: Cloud Forest
