This mod adds a new species to the game: Yunnanosaurus, an extinct genus of sauropodomorph dinosaur known from the Early Jurassic of Yunnan Province, in China, for which it was named. It was a large herbivore, measuring 7 - 13 meters long and weighing 1.5 - 3 metric tons. Yunnanosaurus had a long neck and tail, and a small head with leaf-shaped teeth. It could walk on both two and four legs, depending on the speed and terrain. Yunnanosaurus specimens show different growth stages, from juveniles with serrated teeth and a tooth wear facet, to adults with smooth teeth and no wear facet. These features suggest that Yunnanosaurus changed its diet and feeding mechanism as it grew older.
