The banderbo is a bizarre species of large bipedal mammal part of the mustelid family that is native to the enclosed and open woodlands across North America. The ancestors of banderbos were small arboreal predators that jumped and glided from tree to tree in search of prey, but over time when woodlands became scarce due to climate change in the Miocene and Pliocene, the early banderbo ancestors evolved to live on the ground (lossing gliding abilities) and, due to competition from other predators, the ancestors of banderbos have evolved to be omnivorous and evolved a short prehensile trunk to reach and grab leaves and fruit, not just smaller animals. The banderbo is about 7 feet tall when fully erect, and weighs around 150-175 pounds when fully grown. The banderbo retained its membranous skin for intimidating predators/enemies, and, during the mating seasons, the males' membranes turn from gray to orange-brown (similar to that of the orangutan's fur color) with some red and orange spots to attract females through mating dances, with males dancing and spinning in circles similar to some bird dances. The banderbos not only feed on smaller animals, fruits, or leaves, but they also feed on carrion, fish, roots, tubers, bulbs, and even mushrooms due to their strong immune systems.
