(NEW SPECIES)
This mod adds a new species to the game: Purussaurus, genus of giant caiman that lived in South America during the Miocene epoch. As only skulls have been found, the actual length of Purussaurus is not certain, but bite force has been estimated to be around 52,500 N, with upper estimates indicating that Purussaurus was capable of generating 69,000 N. The large size and estimated strength of this animal appears to have allowed it to include a wide range of prey in its diet, making it an apex predator in its ecosystem. Purussaurus is one of the largest known crocodyliformes ever to have existed.
This is a "New Species" mod, this means that it doesn't repleace any creatures from your game, it adds a whole new one!
NEW 2.0 UPDATE: Land Species and 2 new Skin Variants!
DISCLAIMER (KNOWN BUGS):
If you open the species on the species viewer, please restart the game before loading any saves. If you don't do this, the game will most likely break. This is a common bug with New Species sadly.
New Species for now are highly experimental, and they may have bugs or issues that can't be fixed, or that will take some time to do so. This one is safe to use, but some animations when it hunts and fights don't work properly, so take that in mind when taking screenshots or making any type of video or content with it. If they can be fixed in the future, they will be fixed.
