JarrodB Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 They would probably get along well with the Hell Pigs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akazaran Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 What a strange animal. I really wonder why such big hand claws with such short arms. He stands very high on his legs and I dont see how he could have catch preys with his hands as suggested in the article because his arms are pretty shorts. The shape of the beak is very different from carnivorous birds and I am wondering how you can eat meeat without teeths and with a beak shaped like that. fascinating animal! Thanks for the link and the nice pics... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caldigger Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 I grew up on a chicken farm and in my opinion, all chickens are from Hell. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
