Dakotaraptor Steini (Plunderer of Dakota)

Length 4.5 Blocks long

Height 2 Blocks tall

Appearance, and other info:

A man-sized dromeosaurid that is similar in color to deinonychus. Males have a distinct white coloring on the face, with a black marking around the eye, which helps the creature during the lighter months of hell creek, keeping the sun out of its eyes. The females have a darker coloring on the face, which helps camouflage from large predators like the infamous tyrannosaurus rex. Dakotaraptor are often hypothesized to form family groups, like other dromeosaurids, though we don't find their bones buried with one another, meaning that this behavior that other raptors share, may not be seen in Dakotaraptor. Not much is known about this recently discovered dromeosaurid. Fossils found include a skull, and some other bones, including an arm bone, that had quill knobs, which hold feathers on today's bird wings. It was built less like Austroraptor, and Utahraptor, but more like smaller dromeosaurids, meaning this creature is unique in build being the size it is. Dakotaraptor was likely faster, and lighter than that of Utahraptor.

Ai: Dakotaraptor would sprint toward large prey, then leap like a deinonychus, while others join the feast by using a regular bite attack instead (gallimimus, triceratops, ankylosaur, ect.)

When at low hp the Dakotaraptor would retreat and call out to Dakotaraptor in a ten block radius in hope to save itself from predators, or prey, and get the upper hand.

Dakotaraptor could only climb trees, as anything that isn't wood, would potentially wear down the killing claw's effectiveness.

(something that needs to be added to the other dromeosaurids as well) Dakotaraptor would follow the oldest in the family group (those tamed by you).

Eggs laid by pack members are tamed by the owner, packs max out at five members (they won't lay eggs after the pack as a group has five members), unless you hatch more eggs than they laid.

Unique Animations:Subdue (holding down small prey with it's killing claw), Call (calls for other Dakotaraptor in a ten block radius, with a louder sound), regular attack animation
