Description 10 PE. 5 Million years have passed since we last saw Urth and things have changed now fast footed predators (top) have exterminated 99 % of the Plant Beakers and 50 % of the Bug Beakers the group called Bone Beakers descended from the Egg Beakers has adapted a life of predatory behaviour and hunt their prey with a efficiency un matched since the years of eden dulled the intelligence of the Urth Dicynodonts and has made them meat larders right for the pickings. Now things are changing as two groups challenge the Bone Beakers like never before.

The Plodotheres  (right): Also known as Tusk Beakers they are a descendant of semi bipedal Plant Beakers and share their diet. In order to defend themselves from predators they have evolved two  tusks  to stab their predators the most common is the Fearret which is the most intelligent of the Bone Beakers (not very intelligent but intelligent). Some species of Males have evolved a large horn on the top of their heads this is very weak and can be broken off easily if used in combat which is why they are used as display structures which is why males are called unicorns and females are named Mares they have also evolved an egg pouch to guard them from hungry egg Beakers both genders partake in raising eggs and will raise their young when they hatch by ignoring them as they follow them around learning what to eat and what not to eat and the only time they are noticed is when a Predator is spotted by a member of their herds.

Jumpotheres (left): Also known as Jumping Beakers they are close relatives of the Plodotheres diverging from them only three million years ago after their shared ancestor evolved the egg pouch while their relatives have decided on a small life where they plod around   and spear predators the Jumpotheres have decided hopping away is easier and better than running dinosaur style like their ancestors did. They live in small groups where they will ignore their herd mates until one of them sounds an alarmthis causes them to panic and run in every direction and hope they don't run into the predator  if the predator goes after them they will attempt to kick it away.  This strategy means that one is killed every hunt but thanks to having no definitive breeding season a receptive female can call out at any time and she will find a herd of stampeding bucks coming in her direction and fighting tooth and nail to gain her approval they will lay their eggs the next day and will deposit into the herd of bucks wanting to mate with her pouches and so one will hopefully survive to adulthood and starting breeding at the end of their first    month.
