ALBERTACERATOPS - MID

2 Hours Passive Growth Time 

3500 Combat Weight 

6 adults, 6 offspring (below sub-adult)   

Amargasaurus, Ampelosaurus, Dryosaurus, Eotriceratops, Iguanodon, Nasutoceratops, Pachycephalosaurus, Psittacosaurus, and Struthiomimus. 

○ Nemesis: When threat called or mock attacked, at least 3 times, by an aggressive Styracosaurus, Albertaceratops will vocally threaten back and defend themselves unless outnumbered by 2 or more in the opposing ceratopsian only herd.  If neither ceratopsian herd attempts to flee, they may become combat aggressive until either herd attempts to flee the POI.  Low-tier herbivores do not change a ceratopsian only herd into a non-ceratopsian herd. 

• Note - Ceratopsians include: Albertaceratops, Eotriceratops, Nasutoceratops, and Styracosaurus.

○ Territorial: When in their herd's claimed territory and around food sources, Albertaceratops are combat aggressive toward other Albertaceratops and low-tier herbivores that are not in their group.  Will not chase herbivores if they attempt to flee. 

○ Survivor: Juvi/Adol Albertaceratops will defend themselves from juvi/adol carnivores and adult low-tier carnivores.  They will attempt to flee from adult mid-tier and above carnivores.  If they are pursued and cannot flee, they will fight. 

Ceratopsian herds (those made up of Albertaceratops, Eotriceratops, Nasutoceratops, or Styracosaurus) often engage in herbi-on-herbi combat with each other.  When low-tier herbivores, such as Camptosaurus, Citipati, Dryosaurus, Pachycephalosaurus, Psittacosaurus, Struthiomimus, and Tenontosaurus are in those herds, the low-tier dinosaurs may not engage in combat between the ceratopsians.  Instead, the low-tiers must flee from combat. 

• Adult Albertaceratops are vocally aggressive to adult low and mid-tier carnivores.  If after 3 threatening calls the carnivores do not attempt to flee away from the Albertaceratops, the Albertaceratops may become combat aggressive until the carnivore(s) leave the POI.
• When juvies/adols are present, Albertaceratops will mock charge low and mid-tier carnivores.  If after 2 visible mock charges from a single Albertaceratops, the carnivores do not actively attempt to flee away from the Albertaceratops, they may become combat aggressive until the carnivore(s) flee away from the Albertaceratops' juvies/adols.  and leave POI.

• Adult Albertaceratops are unbothered by solo scavengers.
• Adult Albertaceratops are vocally aggressive to grouped scavengers.
• When with juvies/adols, Albertaceratops are vocally aggressive to all scavengers' no matter the scavs group size.

Small - When in an Albertaceratops only herd, needs at least 3 adult members to claim.  See territories for mix-herd options 

Patriarchal - Male Dominant.    

Albertaceratops tend to be migratory in the morning and evenings until they find a suitable location to raise their young.  The needs of the young are always put first, so young move in the middle or front of the herd.  If there is harsh weather, they will hunker down under the best shelter they can find and form a sleeping circle, keeping the young center to lessen their blow from the unruly weather.  Preferring drier climates, Albertaceratops will move between water sources often and always search for food.  The bulls tend to be more aggressive towards other bulls, especially during mating seasons, and often spar with each other to challenge their strength.  Females will choose to partner with the strongest bulls and those with the most scars. 

4 Hours and 30 Minutes Growth Time 

4650 Combat Weight 

4 adults, 3 offspring (below sub-adult) 

Albertaceratops, Ampelosaurus, Camptosaurus, Dryosaurus, Iguanodon, Lambeosaurus, Pachycephalosaurs, Psittacosaurus, and Struthiomimus.  

○ Tactical Retreat: If next to a crossable body of water when combat starts, solo Amargasaurus will cross that body of water instead of engaging-in or continuing combat. 

• If semi-aquatic or aquatic carnivores are within line of sight or visible in the water, they do not have to cross and may fight for their life.

○ Territorial: When in their claimed territory, they will attempt to chase out/start combat with solo low or mid tier carnivores.  If chasing, they will not pursue after the carnivore attempts to flee the POI.  

○ Gorger: Adult Amargasaurus, when eating from a berry bush, will be vocally aggressive towards other adult sub-apex and below herbivores that are visibly attempting to eat from their berry bush.  Adult Amargasaurus, after 3 mock attacks or 3 threat calls, may become combat aggressive until the other herbivores visibly attempt to flee from the berry bush.  

• Amargasaurus are fearful of adult sub-apex carnivores if outnumbered and all adult apex carnivores. Amargasaurus will attempt to flee instead of fighting, unless cornered or chased. If the Amargasaurus successfully defends themself they will not chase adult apex carnivores if they attempt to flee, but may chase sub-apex carnivores unless outnumbered.
• Amargasaurus are not fearful of adult sub-apex or adult apex carnivores if at max-adults (4) or in a mixed herd with 1 adult apex herbivore or 4 total adult sub-apex herbivores.
• When in an adult only herd, Amargasaurus are unbothered by solo adult low-tier or solo adult mid-tier carnivores getting within one tail length. Will be vocally aggressive to grouped adult low-tier or grouped adult mid-tier carnivores. After 3 threat calls, may become combat aggressive and chase carnivores out of the current POI.
• When juvies/adols are in the herd, vocally aggressive towards adult low and mid-tier carnivores.

• Non-aggressive when there are no juvi/adol Amargasaurus within the group.
• When juvies/adols are present they will be vocally aggressive and if provoked by them getting within one tail length will attempt to start combat.

Medium - Needs at least 3 adult members to claim.   

Large - Needs 4 adult members to claim.  See territories for mix-herd options 

Matriarchal - Female Dominant.     

Active during the day time.  Very low activity at night and vocal when dormant, unless sleeping.  Doesn’t mind having to swim very short distances.  Prefers more open areas.  Will flee to a denser location when being hunted, matching the pace of any young and keeping them in front of the herd.  Oftentimes an older herd member will try and break off to lead the predators away.

8000 Combat Weight 

   2 adults, 2 offspring (below sub-adult) 

Albertaceratops, Amargasaurus, Camptosaurus, Dryosaurus, Iguanodon, Psittacosaurus, and Struthiomimus.

○  Survivor: Juvi/Adol Ampelosaurus will flee from grouped, adult mid-tier carnivores and all adult sub-apex and apex carnivores.  They will flee to the safety of the herd if in one.  

○ Protective Parent: When juvi/adol Ampelosaurus or juvi/adol Amargasaurus are in their group, adult Ampelosaurus will be vocally aggressive towards nearby: grouped adult low-tier carnivores, grouped adult mid-tier carnivores, solo or grouped adult sub-apex carnivores, and solo adult apex carnivores.  Adult Ampelosaurus, after 3 threat calls, may become combat aggressive until the carnivores visibly attempt to flee away from the Ampelosaurus and their herd.  

○ Territorial & Gorger: When in a mix-herd with a claimed territory, they are food aggressive towards all other herbivores not in their group.  Will mock attack 3 times before attempting to start combat, but will retreat when the other party moves a tail length away from the protected food source. 

• When solo or in a mix-herd with mid-tier or lower herbivores, Ampelosaurus are vocally aggressive towards ALL adult carnivores.
• When in a herd of 2 adult sub-apex or higher members, they are unbothered by all carnivores excluding solo or duo adult apex carnivores. 

• Non-aggressive unless scavengers are in hunting sized groups and juvi/adol Ampelosaurus and/or juvi/adol Amargasaurus are present in the group.  If these factors are met, they will mock attack scavengers and may attack if scavengers get within tail distance.

  Nomadic, cannot claim territories when in an Ampelosaurus only herd.  See territories for mix-herd options

Mated Pair - Dual Leadership    

Dawn and Noon activity.  When offspring are super young, they tend to stick to wooded areas and hunker down most of the time, not traveling long distances.  When being hunted they will put the young behind or in-between the adults and are vocally assertive, often using their size to intimidate the carnivore. 

4 Hours Passive Growth Time 

3000+ Combat Weight 

2 adults, 3 offspring (below sub-adult)  

 Camptosaurus, Citipati, Kentrosaurus, Lambeosaurus, Psittacosaurus, Struthiomimus, and Styracosaurus.  

○  Hydrophobic: Anodontosaurus will not swim after combat has started.  

○  Nomadic: When solo, or in an Anodontosaurus only herd, they are nomadic moving between at least 3 POIs before returning to the original area.  

○ Absent Guardian: Adult Anodontosaurus will not protect grouped juvi/adol Anodontosaurus if they are not within line of sight during combat.  Adults may protect the embattled juvi/adol Anodontosaurus if they return to line of sight.  

• When solo, aggressive to adult low-tier carnivores and above, thumping its tail to ward off potential threats.
• When in a herd, unbothered unless a carnivore is within tail swing range or there is an attempt to initiate combat by claw, tail, or bite attack on any herd member.

• When in an adult-only herd, Anodontosaurus do not perceive scavengers as a potential threat.
• When there is grouped juvi/adol Anodontosaurus in their herd and they are within line of sight, will be vocally aggressive to scavengers.

Nomadic, cannot claim territories when in an Anodontosaurus only herd.  See territories for mix-herd options 

Independent - Will think of their own personal benefit before others.     

When settled down into a claimed territory with a mix-herd, Anodontosaurus will shed its colors to match the new environment, shedding to various greens of the forest or browns and grays to match canyons and deserts.  Mainly day time travelers, they will prefer to travel to new locations at dawn and settle into a territory only during the night, specifically trying to find safe spots to sleep such as in caves or under overhangs.  They will mostly stick to forests as much as possible for food and water sources, avoiding the open and flat sands of the desert and the rocky terrains of the canyons, especially when deciding where to sleep for the night.

3 adults, 1 offspring (below adolescent) 

• Below adolescent, tolerant of Citipati, Lambeosaurus, and Struthiomimus.
• Once adolescent, can only group with Argentinosaurus.

○ Nomadic: When in an Argentinosaurus only herd, they are strictly nomadic, traveling across at least 3 POIs before returning to the original POI.  

○ Protective Parent: Adult Argentinosaurus are protective of grouped juvi/adol Argentinosaurus, becoming vocally aggressive towards sub-apex and apex carnivores within line of sight.  

○ Survivor: Juvi/Adol Argentinosaurus will avoid confrontation unless there is an attempt to initiate combat from a carnivore by bite, tail, or claw attack against any group members.  

• Adult Argentinosaurus, when solo or in an adult-only herd, are unbothered by mid-tier or lower-tier carnivores.  May become combat aggressive to adult sub-apex and apex carnivores if within tail striking distance.
• When juvi/adol Argentinosaurus are present, adult Argentinosaurus may be combat aggressive to all carnivores if within tail striking distance.

Note: An Argentinosaurus cannot purposefully force a carnivore within their trail striking distance in an attempt to initiate combat. 

• Adult Argentinosaurus do not perceive scavengers as a potential threat.
• When juvi/adol Argentinosaurus are present, will be vocally aggressive to grouped scavengers.

Nomadic, cannot claim territories when in an Argentinosaurus only herd.  See territories for mix-herd options 

Matriarchal - Female Dominant.    

When grazing in a territory, female Argentinosaurus become food-source aggressive toward herded male Argentinosaurus, unless bushes and flora are bountiful.  Argentinosaurus are particularly vocal while traveling or when they see other dinosaurs, announcing their arrival or presence to all within range to hear their calls.  If ever caught in combat, they will unknowingly trample smaller, harder to see dinosaurs within their direct path.  They enjoy splashing in water while crossing rivers or other manageable water sources.  They prefer to roam open areas like plains or savannahs, steering clear of rocky terrains and cluttered forests to avoid bumping their feet into sizable boulders and toppling young trees with their size.

Camptosaurus, Citipati, Edmontosaurus Annectens, Edmontosaurus Regalis, Iguanodon, Lambeosaurus, Parasaurolophus, Struthiomimus, and Tenontosaurus.   

○ Tactical Retreat: If next to a crossable body of water when combat starts, solo Barsboldia will cross that body of water instead of engaging-in or continuing combat. 

• Note: If semi-aquatic or aquatic carnivores are within line of sight or visible in the water, Barsboldia does not have to cross and may fight for their life.

○ Territorial: When in their claimed territory, Barsboldia will be vocally aggressive to adult sub-apex or below carnivores and mock attack.  

○ Protective Parent: When juvi/adol hadrosaurs are present, adult Barsboldia will use their bodies to shield and protect their young from the sight and the attacks of all carnivores.  

• When in a Barsboldia-only herd, they are unbothered by carnivores unless there is an attempt to initiate combat by the carnivores’ attacks on any herd member.
• When solo or in a group of only two, Barsboldia are vocally aggressive towards adult low or mid-tier carnivores and will attempt to flee from sub-apex and apex carnivores, unless cornered or exhausted.
• When juvi/adol hadrosaurs are present in their herd, adult Barsboldia will be vocally aggressive towards adult mid-tier or lower carnivores.  If after 3 threat calls or 3 mock attacks a carnivore(s) does not visibly attempt to flee away from the Barsboldia or its herd, an adult Barsboldia may become combat aggressive until the carnivore successfully flees the POI.  

• In an adult-only herd, Barsboldia do not perceive scavengers as a potential threat.
• When juvi/adol hadrosaurs are present, adult Barsboldia will be vocally aggressive towards grouped scavengers.

Large - Can claim as a solo adult or Barsboldia group See territories for mix-herd options 

   Leading Bull - Male Dominant.   

Bull Barsboldia tend to be more vocal amongst themselves than their female counterparts, creating miniature bachelor groups within the herd while cows will watch over and graze with their young.  During the harsh sunlight hours, Barsboldia groups will congregate underneath the shade of trees or bathe in nearby streams to stay cool.  Bulls will battle for dominance over the herd, sometimes exiling the losing bull.  When confronted by a carnivore, cows will put their young first, often matching their pace while a singular bull attempts to lead the carnivore away.

○ Safety in Numbers: While in a Camptosaurus-only group, they will fight back against scavenger packs.  When solo, Campto will flee from all scavengers.  

○ Territorial:  When in a mixed-herd with territory, Camptosaurus will act as a scout, alerting the herd of any intruders.  

○ Survivor: Juvi/Adol Camptosaurus will attempt to flee from all carnivores and hide.  

Ceratopsian herds (those made up of Albertaceratops, Eotriceratops, Nasutoceratops, or Styracosaurus) often engage in herbi-on-herbi combat with each other.  When low-tier herbivores, such as Camptosaurus, Citipati, Dryosaurus, Pachycephalosaurus, Psittacosaurus, Struthiomimus, and Tenontosaurus are in those herds, the low-tier dinosaurs may not engage in combat between the ceratopsians.  Instead, the low-tiers must flee from combat. 

   None; will run to hide from low-tier or above carnivores.  

  Vocally aggressive to scavengers unless solo.  Will not initiate combat on scavengers 

Nomadic, cannot claim territories when in a Camptosaurus only herd.  See territories for mix-herd options 

 Swarm Mind - Mimic Behavior/Group Thought.  

Will seek dense undergrowth and forests to live in.  Will stick with its group when traveling, but will leave anyone behind when in danger.  Most active at dawn and noon.  It’s a very social and vocal  dinosaur and can be seen hanging around near other herbivores and try to get itself into a herd if given the chance.

○ Loud & Proud: When any juvies/adols are present in a mixed herd, adult Citipati will be vocally aggressive toward all carnivores.  

○ Territorial: When in a mixed herd's claimed territory, will vocally alert the herd to all carnivores.  

○ Decoy: When in a Citipati-only flock, if attacked, adults will attempt to lead danger away or fight until gravely injured and death is likely, to protect their offspring.

Ceratopsian herds (those made up of Albertaceratops, Eotriceratops, Nasutoceratops, or Styracosaurus) often engage in herbi-on-herbi combat with each other.  When low-tier herbivores, such as Camptosaurus, Citipati, Dryosaurus, Pachycephalosaurus, Psittacosaurus, Struthiomimus, and Tenontosaurus are in those herds, the low-tier dinosaurs may not engage in combat between the ceratopsians.  Instead, the low-tiers must flee from combat. 

• When solo, Citipati will avoid adult mid-tier or higher carnivores.  Will still defend themselves if there is an attempt to initiate combat from a carnivore by claw or bite attack.
• When in a herd, Citipati are vocally aggressive to all adult carnivores.  Will defend the herd from any tier carnivore attacks.  

   Does Not Tolerate

• In a mixed herd, Citipati will be vocally aggressive toward all scavengers, regardless of pack size.  They will become combat aggressive after 3 threat calls only if the scavengers clearly do not attempt to flee away from the herd.  If the scavengers attack first, Citipati may chase them out of the POI.

• When running Scavenger Diet and solo, or in a Citipati only herd, Citipati can hunt scavengers of any group size within the same POI.  Citipati cannot continue to chase once scavengers leave a POI.
• Must still follow herbivore aggression rules against other carnivores; Citipati cannot claim bodies and must give them up if contested.
• When in a mix-herd, Citipati will not run Scavenger Diet, preferring to eat bushes, insects, and flora.

Nomadic, cannot claim territories when in a Citipati only herd.  See territories for mix-herd options 

  Mated Pair - Dual Leadership.

Citipati are natural caregivers; caring for their sick and hurt herd members or protecting their young under their plumage.  They enjoy vocalizing during the daylight hours, socializing by singing songs to each other or when looking for other lost members of their herd.  In the evenings, Citipati will splash and bathe in the cool waters of a nearby water source, cleaning their feathers before resting for the night.  Young Citipati tend to be curious and when physically able to leave the nest, will often wander off to explore, requiring their parents to search and carry them back to the nest.  Males will often adorn striking colors, dancing and flashing their vibrant plumage at females in an attempt of courtship; females will sync their dances if they accept.

○ Territorial: When 2 adults are present in a same-species herd, Deinocheirus becomes vocally aggressive toward other adult Deinocheirus.  After 3 threatening calls, Deinocheirus may become combat aggressive until other Deinocheirus’ attempt to flee from their herd.  

○ Territorial: When in their same-species claimed territory, Deinocheirus will be vocally aggressive if 3 or more adult sub-apex or lower carnivores are drinking from their water source; they will not pursue the carnivore(s) further than approximately 1 Deinocheirus length away from the water.  

○ Survivor: Juvi/Adol Deinocheirus will flee from all carnivores.   

• Deinocheirus will be vocally aggressive to all approaching carnivores.  If after 3 threat calls or 3 mock attacks, carnivore(s) do not visibly attempt to flee away from the Deinocheirus or its herd, Deinocheirus may become combat aggressive and chase them out of the POI.

• Deinocheirus will only be vocally aggressive to grouped scavengers.
• Deinocheirus are unbothered by duo or solo scavengers. 

Large - Can claim only lakes or ponds as a solo adult or Deinocheirus group See territories for mix-herd options 

 Mated Pair - Dual Leadership.  

Often unconcerned with other dinosaurs, Deinocheirus will often migrate from water source to water source until they find a suitable spot to raise their young.  They prefer to travel during rainy weather, but will migrate if danger lurks within their current water source.  Female Deinocheirus are very protective of their young and will actively chase out unrelated male Deinocheirus from their claimed water source.  They will sometimes be found pruning their feathers at the shores of their claimed lakes and ponds.

○ Survivor: When solo or in a Dryosaurus-only herd, they will flee from any carnivore above low-tier.  

○ Territorial: When in their mixed herd's claimed territory, Dryosaurus will vocally alert other herd members to potentially threatening carnivores.  

○ Survivor: Juvi/Adol Dryosaurus will flee from any carnivore.  

Ceratopsian herds (those made up of Albertaceratops, Eotriceratops, Nasutoceratops, or Styracosaurus) often engage in herbi-on-herbi combat with each other.  When low-tier herbivores, such as Camptosaurus, Citipati, Dryosaurus, Pachycephalosaurus, Psittacosaurus, Struthiomimus, and Tenontosaurus are in those herds, the low-tier dinosaurs may not engage in combat between the ceratopsians.  Instead, the low-tiers must flee from combat. 

• While solo, or in a Dryosaurus-only herd, avoids adult carnivores above low-tier; will only become combat aggressive towards adult low-tier and scavengers if there is an attempt to initiate combat by the carnivore(s).  Will attempt to flee from adult mid-tier or higher carnivores.
• When in a mixed herd, adult Dryosaurus will become combat aggressive against mid-tier and lower  carnivores once the herd is attacked.
• When in a mixed herd, non-aggressive toward sub-apex and apex carnivores, but will be vocal to alert the rest of the herd to danger.

•  Vocally aggressive towards all scavengers.  Will fight back if attacked.  

 Nomadic, cannot claim territories when in a Dryosaurus only herd.  See territories for mix-herd options 

 Matriarchal - Female Dominant  

 Within a herd, Dryosaurus females can oftentimes be found nipping at one another as they compete to provide for their young; whether it's for burrowing caves or food resources.  Dryosaurus groups will stick to densely forested areas for coverage as they raise their young, eventually moving to the bushes and tall grass of the grasslands once they're old enough.  They prefer to graze at the times of dawn and dusk as to avoid the sight of potential predators, retreating to their burrows and caves during the intense daylight hours when they could be most vulnerable.  Young Dryosaurus will avoid detection at all costs, hiding from predators in bushes and tall grass or losing line of sight of them behind rocks or over hillsides.  

Will ONLY eat bushes and flora FIRST 

Will NOT scavenge off player bodies 

Will NOT eat meat unless starving to death [taking damage] - Will ONLY eat from AI Corpses or Burrows if starving to death
