Gulphog

The Gulphog is a carnivorous creature native to Aurelia.

Characteristics
The Gulphog is an Aurelian carnivore that vaguely resembles an Earth ostrich, which eat Mudpods. Gulphogs are 4.5 metres tall and weigh 500 kilograms, the heaviest predators on Aurelia. Gulphogs have a highly sophisticated hierarchical structure. They have a unique warning system to warn of solar flare-they have three eyes, one which signals UV rays. The parent Gulphogs educate their young and protect them with great care. They use their long teeth to pick up vibrations. Their only known predator is the Hysteria. There is a possibility due to their social nature and ability to nurture the clan´s young, the Gulphog might evolve into a sapient species.
