Tabulgil

Tabulgils are one of the most primitive species of the Sirenia-grouped mammals, which also includes manatees and dugongs. They are very much similar to the fully-aquatic manatees and the completely-airborne skymanatee, but has no flippers and, instead has short but strong legs to support their heavy body. They also lack fins on their tails as these mammals live almost completely on land, only to come to the water to drink or to swim to get rid of any possible parasites on their bodies. Different species of tabulgils range from the size of a juvenile common hippopotamus to the size of a white rhinoceros, making them among the largest land mammals, along with rhinos, elephants, murambis, and some others. They are peaceful herbivores, being as peaceful as the fully-aquatic manatees and dugongs and the fully-airborne skymanatee. They feed only on grass, flowers, leaves, fruits, vegetables, vines, and even thorns that most other animals avoid (due to the tabulgil's thick lips, gum, tongue, etc). They are also thriving extremely well in human settlements, not just their natural habitats including temperate forests, boreal forests, subtropical forests, rainforests, swamps, grasslands, or savannahs.
