Not to be confused with M'Lee's species.

Emily's species is a non-sapient sauropod-like alien species.

Biology[]

Members of this species are huge reptilian quadrupeds which closely resemble the Brontosaurus of Mesozoic Earth, with an elongated neck and a long mobile tail, the latter tipped with two curved spikes for defense. They have greyish-brown skin and a proportionally small head, and measure over a hundred feet in full length, with a body diameter of 18 ft (~ 5.48 m) and an estimated weight of 80,000 pounds (36,287.39 kg). Their nervous system is composed of a cephalic brain and an additional secondary brain inside their sacral vertebrae. They are herbivorous and need to consume tons of vegetation per day. When threatened, they instinctively hide underwater.

According to the predictions of a VUXG physician, Emily's species has the potential to develop into a sapient civilization in the future.
