Sword Wounder

A sword wounder (Gladiunasusaurus gracilus) is a species of medium-sized wounder native to the forests of Argentina and Peru. It is named for its long snout, which is similar in shape to a sword, and males uses them for fighting each other (in a similar fashion to swordfighting knights) for territory and/or to win a right to mate. It an omnivore that mainly feeds on arthropods, fish, frogs, smaller reptiles, birds, eggs, small mammals, carrion, fruits, and leaves, but can also feed on man-made food. It can grow to be around 11 feet long and weigh around 70-85 pounds when fully grown. Sword wounders are solitary animals, living most of their lives alone, but the males often find females to mate with during breeding seasons. The conservation status of the sword wounder is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts and the sword wounders' tolerance to human activities, including being able to adapt to life in the cities and suburbs.
