Chickenpox Wounder

A chickenpox wounder (Latinotroodon galluscicer) is a species of medium-sized wounder native to the grasslands, forests, swamps, and rainforests of Argentina, Chile, Peru, Bolivia, Brazil, and Colombia. It was named by early English explorers due to the colors of the animal made it look like it had chicken pox, causing the animal to be nearly driven to extinction in late 1500s, but it was later found to be false as chickenpox wounders, even healthy ones, have this coloration, so the explorers had stopped hunting chickenpox wounders. It is 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. Chickenpox 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 chickenpox wounder is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts and the chickenpox wounders' tolerance to human activities, including being able to adapt to life in the cities and suburbs.
