Dinosaur plover (SciiFii)

The dinosaur plover (Neopluvianus dinosaura), also known as the white-crested plover, is a species of wader of the pratincole and courser family, Glareolidae, that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the rainforests, wetlands, forests, open woodlands, grasslands, shrublands, scrublands, and deserts across Eurasia and North America to help boost biodiversity. The dinosaur plover is known for its white head, neck, and breast with black speckles, and has dull brown feathers on its wings, back, and tail. The dinosaur plover is an average-sized plover that is usually around 19–21 centimeters long when fully grown. This usually very tame bird is found in pairs or small groups near water. It feeds by pecking for insects. The call is a high-pitched krrr-krrr-krrr. Due to how tame it is, people often get closer than is safe. The bird is referred to as the dinosaur bird for its symbiotic relationship with de-extincted large non-avian theropod dinosaurs such as Acrocanthosaurus, helping the larger carnivorous dinosaur by feasting on the meat (fresh and decaying) that are lodged between its teeth and hunting the insects that would otherwise irritate the larger dinosaur. The dinosaur plover lays between two and five eggs that are not incubated, but are buried in warm sand and/or mud, temperature control being achieved by the adult sitting on the eggs with a water-soaked belly to cool them. If the adult leaves the nest, it smooths sand over the eggs, though if it is frightened the job may be hasty. The chicks are precocial, and can run as soon as they are hatched and feed themselves shortly afterwards. The adults cool the chicks in the same way as with the eggs. The chicks may drink water from the adult's belly feathers. The adults bury the chicks in the sand temporarily if danger threatens. The conservation status of the dinosaur plover is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the dinosaur plover's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
