  1. Do we really need another Snake? We have 2 already in-game. I feel like there’s so many other species or genera that deserve more representation.
  2. This is the 3rd time I’ve casted my vote for Maiasaura and hopefully it gets more leverage this time around. Anyhow, my concept for Maiasaura is a Jack-of-all trades and would make an excellent addition to the already dwindling amount of Hadrosaurs, albeit Ornithopods already in the Game. We only have Parasaurolophus and Iguanodon, so surely we can squeeze room for another addition to the family, right? Dossier Common Name: Maiasaura Species: Maiasaura praesidii Time: Late Cretaceous Diet: Herbivore Temperament: Protective Wild Found mainly in the canyons and oasis, Maiasaura praesidii is a large, herdminded hadrosaur that spends most of their days foraging for food or gathering materials to build nests for their young. Maiasaura are typically docile in nature. However, when provoked, or when their young are in a state of peril, they will not hesitate to defend themselves or their offspring. Maiasaura praesidii’s cranium is strangely dense, similar in density to that of the Island’s Pachycephalosaurus. This allows them to mercilessly headbutt would-be predators or anyone or anything that dare wonders too close to their nests. Their headbutts can be truly devastating and are able to cripple any creature who manages be in their line of fire. For anyone out there who once thought Maiasaura was a poor defenseless creature, think again! Many inexperienced and unprepared survivors have lost their lives in the hands, or more frankly the “heads” of Maiasaura praesidii. Domestication Taming, more or less raising a Maiasaura is no easy feat. Maiasaura are fiercely protective over their nest of young and eggs, even if the nests aren’t even theirs. Therefore adult Maiasaura praesidii are proven to be too resilient, as well as too stubborn to be domesticated. In order to tame a Maiasaura one must successfully steal, hatch, and raise one towards adulthood, albeit they aren’t headbutted to death. Once raised, Maiasaura praesidii makes for either an excellent war mount or a beast of burden. Their saddle even acts as a preserving bin, long preserving berries, meat, and even eggs. Curiously, Maiasaura also have a strange effect on fertilized eggs and infant creatures. Fertilized eggs under their presence seem to hatch much faster and newborn creatures seem to mature much quicker as well. Maiasaura will even go outta it way to feed infant creatures, regardless of species, with whatever food it has stored in its inventory. This not only lives towards the species’ name, but gives tribes much less of a hassle of raising new additions to the family.
