Description Submitted by TheOmegaSeal
Size: 622 lbs, 16 feet tall, 37 feet in length
Niche: More or less a very aggressive giraffe niche  
Planet of origin: Deroth

Description: They usually roam fast plains, eating large shrubs and leaves off of greaves. The hairs on the back of their head and neck stand up when threatened or when trying to impress mates. When fighting off predators, they use their front 2 arms to grapple onto the predator, and their 2 large and sharp hoofs on their forelegs to stomp and slash the predator to death. The weirdly shaped tail is a fat deposit, that also acts as a womb for females, an area to excrete waste, and a counter wait for their large body. They have 4 eyes, similar to earth’s animals, on their upper jaw. They have 3 jaws, 2 lower jaws that act like clapping hands, and the 1 upper jaw that acts as support, with taste bud like receptors. On their upper neck they have ears, that can close and expand depending on the sound they hear. Each lower jaw has 1 nostrils. They mate via a similar mechanism to earth. They have a gestation period of approximately 4 earth months. Babies are only 4 feet tall and 7 feet long. They take around 5 earth years to become fully adult. At the edges of their lower jaws they have 2 protruding stingers, that release a highly toxic chemical that can kill an average adult human in 5 minutes.
