Xiphactinus

Forfedon is a predatory fish that lives in Loch Ness. It is four feet long, and seven inches high. It's name translates to "Scissor Tooth" which refers to the interlocking teeth they have that work like scissors. They are very similar to tiger fish in that there are holes in their jaws where their teeth can fit into when they close their jaws.

Their common name, and the name most people know them by is "Sharp Bulldog Fish". They were named as such because of their short faces which look like bulldogs. These fish are actually descendants of the monstrous Xiphactinus that lived during the Cretaceous period. However, these fish have adapted to live in a very different niche compared to their ancestors.

Since they are smaller, they live in swarms of fifteen each. They act almost like piranhas, using their combined strength to take down larger prey. And they are fairly quick. Most of the resemblance to their ancestors comes from the head, but the body is far shorter than Xiphactinus.

They are known to live in the deeper parts of the Loch and prefer to live in caves. Males like the one seen here usually have bulkier jaws and a bigger dorsal fin than the females. Though they are small, one bite could easily tear off a person's arm. Their jaws can also open up very wide, almost like snakes.

In terms of behavior, they are mostly passive and won't bother anyone. However, that is until they consider you a point of interest. To get their attention, they will first have to bite you once to get a feel for your skin. That will tell them if you are worth it or not because if your skin is too protected, they will lose interest. But if your skin is vulnerable, a frenzy will begin.

During mating season, some of them change color. Usually they are a dark, chocolate brown color, but when they want to attract mates, they may change their color to look a little more like green. Their main prey items conststs of catfish and other small, bottom dwelling fish. But they can go after bigger prey if they want to. But they never go after predators like Nessie because her skin is far too durable even for them.

The game

Here is the roster

It’s still a beta but since they added prehistoric animals already I hope they add others like Xiphactinus,Basilosaurus,Mosasaurus,Temnodontosaurus ect,I also hope they add more semi aquatics(The only ones are the turtle,seal and penguin) like Saltwater Crocodile,Sea Krait,Rhamphosuchus and maybe(MAYBE) Spinosaurus as well as sea fairing birds like Albatross,Pelagornis and the other Penguin Species

In a show of dolphin-like behaviour, a female Dolichorhynchops, surrounded by geothermal vents, pushes its sick baby to the surface to breathe. In the background, two Xiphactinus lurk balefully, waiting for the perfect time to attack the defenceless child.

The oceans are a world of mysteries, home to creatures we can't imagine. Prehistory also had some of the most bizarre animals to ever swim the seas. An Elamosaurus swims by. Be careful, these are Dangerous Seas.

Intro rolls

This long-necked reptile is an Elasmosaurus, they belong to a group known as the Plesiosaurs, famous for there necks. They use them like sauropod necks, but this isn't for reaching the tops of trees. Elasmosaurus catches a fish. They are for catching fish. This female is migrating to a nursery, where her future kids will be safe.

The Elasmosaurus swims by an Archelon.

Archelon, the biggest turtle to ever exist, they could grow to about the size of a car. Although they may look like Letherbacks, they are from a completely different branch of the turtle family known as the Protostegidae. Some Baculites are seen swimming.

These are Baculites, they may look like squids but they are actually from a group called the Ammonites. The Archelon eats one of them. They are food to Archelon and many other animals.

The Elasmosaurus swims alongside a Dolichorhynchops.

This is Dolichorhynchops, it too is a Plesiosaur, but unlike Elasmosaurus it has a smaller neck. We see some cinematography.

We then see lots of Hesperornis diving down and catching fish.

These are Hesperornis, aquatic birds. They are one of the closest relative to modern birds. They have adaptations like a long neck and paddle like tail feathers for hunting fish. The Elasmosaurus catches one of the Hesperornis. But they are also a common food source here.

Next we see a Gillicus

Gillicus, a lobe-finned fish. They are weird looking fish, and another common prey item. A Xiphactinus eats the Gillicus.

Xiphactinus, a much larger relative of Gillicus, and equally as bizarre. The Xiphactinus gets swung here and there and dies. Many fossils have been found of Xiphactinus with prey still inside, it's been theorized the prey tried escaping from the insides of the predator killing both.

We then go onto land and see a Claosaurus on the edge of a steep hill (I'm pretty sure where you can see where this is going)

Claosaurus, a Dinosaur. Although Dinosaurs dominated the lands, near the seas is much more dangerous. Claosaurus falls in the water and drowns and is surrounded by Squalicorax.

Squalicorax are a type of Sharks, they are also known as the Crow Shark. The Squalicorax starts taking bites of the Claosaurus. Claosaurus fossils have been discovered here, and have evidence of Sharks feeding on it.

An Archelon gets attacked by a Tylosaurus.

This is the apex predator around here, Tylosaurus. A relative of lizards and snakes. They have a bite-force strong enough to crush the shell of Archelon.

We then see the female Elasmosaurus hinting Xiphactinus and then going up for air. They may be aquatic, but they still need air to breath. Elasmosaurus only put up their head. Elasmosaurus kills a Xiphactinus. She has to eat a lot of food to make sure both her and her kin survives.

The Elasmosaurus reaches the nursery. After a long journey she finally arrives. These are shallow waters, not big enough for any predators to enter. This is a safe spot to raise her young.

Some time passes and we see 5 baby Elasmosaurus. The babies are here and have grown a bit. Some Squalicorax attack. Squalicorax are danger to the young, the Elasmosaurus have to reach the shallows quickly. A Squalicorax almost gets one but is killed by a Tylosaurus. Then a bigger Tylosaurus appears. Tylosaurus don't get along well, and will kill the other. The Tylosaurus fight and the bigger one kills the smaller one and goes up for the air, meanwhile the smaller one sinks to the bottom of the ocean. The ocean is a beautiful place, but it's also mysterious and deadly.

End credits roll

Reptiles dominated the Mesozoic era on the land, skies, and even the seas, but like all thongs it must come to an end. 66 million years ago struck the coast of Mexico, marking an end to the Mesozoic era. A Tyrannosaurus sees the asteroid.

Mosasaurus eat a Xiphactinus and four sharks Cretoxyrhina scavenging it the dead carcasses attracting to blood.

And Archelon swim by.
