Longipteryx (SciiFii)

The long-snouted toothbird (Longipteryx vulgaris) is a species of enantiornithine bird that originally lived from the Early Cretaceous of China, about 120 million years ago as an extinct species, Longipteryx chaoyangensis, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii. It was originally planned to be included in Cretaceous Park located in Sacramento, California, but some staffs accidentally left the birdcage for this species open, letting the long-snouted toothbirds loose, and ever since that event, this species is now breeding in the wilderness and in human settlements, with the estimated population of around 3 million individuals living in California, Arizona, New Mexico, Utah, Nevada, and Oregon. With a body length of only around 15cm (6″), it has a long snout tipped with a few hooked teeth and feet capable of perching, it has a lifestyle very similar to native modern kingfishers, feeding on fish, small invertebrates, and small frogs in its habitats, including wetlands. It is a solitary animal in most of its life except during breeding seasons, when males try to find females to mate with. The lifecycle of the long-snouted toothbird is almost identical to the lifecycle of an American crow, being a fast and frequent breeder. The conservation status of the long-snouted toothbird is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the long-snouted toothbird's wide range, and its tolerance to most of human activities, including being able to adapt to life in the cities and suburbs.
