Owlbear

The owlbear (Strigoceratops notabilis) is a species of non-avian ceratopsian ornithischian dinosaur, despite its name, that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the wetlands, forests, and open woodlands across Eurasia to help boost biodiversity. The owlbear has a thick coat of hairlike feathers, which are modified forms of bristles, to keep itself warm during winter. This coat remains the same colour throughout the year and become much thicker in winter. The owlbears, unlike many large ceratopsians, have also exchanged size and impressive horns for agility and opposable thumbs with which the owlbears can climb trees and grasp objects. The owlbears are around one meter (3 feet) long on average, with the largest specimens being approximately almost 2 meters (6.5 feet) in length. The owlbear is an omnivore that primarily feeds on leaves, pine needles, shrubs, fruits, nuts, insects, and carrion. The owlbear is a social animal that lives in herds of around 30 individuals, led by a dominant male. The mating season takes place in early spring, when males compete with each other to win a right to mate with the females. The nests are made of leaves and debris, and the eggs are laid about 2 months later, which hatch around 3 more months. The hatchlings are cared for by both of their parents as soon as they are born, and they reach sexual maturity at the age of 4 years old in males and 5 years old in females. The average lifespan of a owlbear is around 25-30 years in the wild, but captive specimens can live to be almost 40 years if properly cared for. The conservation status of the owlbear is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the owlbear's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
