Description Specimen #4
NAME: Striped-Tusk Gigaboar

ORIGIN: When it became increasingly efficient to grow meat from labs, pork meat (and others) fell in demand, and many pig farms shut down and hundreds of thousands of pigs were left in the wild, the numbers grew, and with relatively little predators they grew to tremendous sizes, and caused havoc on any town or city anywhere near large forests, and many people where killed. (un?)Fortunately a rather large population survived inside of Yellowstone park, undetected for decades, until reports of trampled trees and many of the faunas deaths increased, then Rangers and some people in charge of Yellowstone at the time tried to lower their numbers by shooting them or relocating them, which wasn't very efficient because the population was growing extremely fast, and the pigs started mass killing some animals that may have even been considered predators of the once small pigs (such as bears or wolves). The situation got out of hand, and 1/7th of the land Yellowstone once owned was corrupted and growing. The problem was eventually eased, but many of the feral hogs population started sprouting in different parts of the united states and even Yellowstone, many deaths occurred and pandemics spread, this was an event that would not be forgotten for hundreds of years. Skip forward five million years into the future, and the Gigaboars rule the forests of north america, and are densely populated around the Yellowstone territory.

CHARACTERISTICS: A grown mans head would be around the same height as a Gigaboars tusks, they are extremely aggressive and have stripes on their tail, legs, tusks, and large faint ones on their body.These aid in camouflage.

Specimen #5
NAME: Freckled Bearwolf 

ORIGIN: When an overload of large and aggressive pigs flooded parts of Yellowstone park, the wolf population was slaughtered, the wolves quickly evolved to match the threat, but they weren't fast enough, hundreds of packs of wolves retreated to other parts of Yellowstone or even escaped and caused chaos on some nearby cities, while some numbers stayed and continued getting larger while at the rivalry with the feral beasts. Five million years in the future, and the two species are still at each others throats, the Bearwolves have gotten larger and stronger. Bearwolf populations dot North America while being especially abundant near Yellowstone.

CHARACTERISTICS: The Freckled Bearwolf has spots of dark fur covering its neck, while it has developed a bear-like body structure, with masculine legs used for clawing at the Gigaboars eyes.

Specimen #6
NAME: Tungula Bird

ORIGIN: Descended from the Turkey Vulture, They have an excellent sense of smell and are scavenger birds.

CHARACTERISTICS: Striped beak, Featherless neck and head, dark brown in color. This Tungula bird has come in hopes he will get to scavenge any carcasses or meat left behind.

Specimen #7
NAME: Fin Tailed Turtle 
ORIGIN: Descended from the Spiny Softshell Turtle. Not much to say.

CHARACTERISTICS: Light brown-green in color, sporting a bright fin on its tail for attracting females. this one appears to be very scared and just wants to go home.

Thanks! I'm re-starting it so its 50 million years in the future instead of 5 million. You will be sure to see some strange creatures then!

about that, if its 50 million years in the future, is it still the cenozoic era? That would make the Cenozoic era last (66m + 50m) 116 million years, and 100+ is what an average era last, so it may be the start of a new era, literally

No, Stripes for camouflage in its very grassy environment, you might learn a lot about it if you read the description
