Earlier this month through some sort of miracle. A species thought to be long extinct was discovered in the Central part of Camel Eaters. The Achelousaurus was originally native to North America yet somehow migrated to Camel Eaters. These creatures are now being studied.

OOC: For those without a degree in Paleontology here's a link www.dinosaursinart.com/achelousaurus.htm

bump.

We will also be selling these creatures as military weapons/carriers/things with cannons on their back/food.

bump of a thousand bumps.

OOC: pretty cool. Have you ever read the Edgar Rice Burroughs Pelucidar books? He had a group of people in those books that rode and used Triceratops.

Have these creatures been effectively trained yet? Can they remain calm while the sounds of gunfire are near them? Can we purchase any without your cannons?


EDIT: Also, we will need training for handling the creatures as well as instruction on appropriate habitats and enclosures.

The major (only) Littlecity Zoo has announced interest in having some of these animals as exhibits in their zoos.

Meanwhile, President Fred Redwick has the following to say about using dinosaurs in war: "That sounds like a very stupid (but cool) idea. I mean, who wants a dinosaur when you can have a big, noisy, fuel-consuming tank instead? Not me, that's for sure."

Adj-Keristan how many would you like each Auchelousaurus will come with a trainer.

Littlecity We've found them very effective in war. But you may have one herd (30) Achelosaurs.

Hey, Camel Eaters, how's it going? I'd love to buy some of them. How much are they?

It's going good.

Hmm. One Auchelosaurus is 3000 dollars US. An entire herd consists of thirty creatures.

So, it'd be 90,000 for a herd, eh? Not bad. Not bad at all. I'll wire you the money immediately.

Awesome we have a deal. Enjoy the herd.

Thanks! :)

We refuse to sell to Sephiroth.

why

We don't like you and the Auchelosaurs would more than likely kill themselves than go to your country.

To: Leader of Camel Eaters

The Holy Nation of Shazbotdom would like the information on how these creatures, who were believed to be long extinct, wound up being alive. Any and all scientific information would be appreciated as we can update our scholastic material.

These creatures as hard as it is to believe were existing in a part of Camel Eaters that was previously uncolonized. Well it was colonized but very little only one settlement.

Letter from the Littlecity Grand Zoo:

"Hello!

We'd be mighty interested in buying two (one male and one female, if possible) of those dinosaur-creatures...what're they called...Uh, you didn't write that in the letter did you? No? Okay, here we go: two (one male and one female, if possible) of the Auchelosauruses. Did you spell that right? Let's see...Au...yep, you got it right. Okay, we'll send the money for the purchase, sincerely etcetera etcetera. Man, we're gonna make MILLIONS out of this. Have you stopped typing? No? Well, stop typing and send the letter, dammit!"

Umm. no Littlecity you already had some sent to your zoo. You can breed them there but if you sell them at huge prices then we will be forced to take action against you. Oh wait according to the law of supply and demand we have the higher amount for lower prices so you're not making any money.

OOC: Ooops, my bad. Erm...let's just say that that letter was the original order, okay? The Littlecity Grand Zoo now has 2 dinos, right?

You ordered like eight.

"Well" says the boss of Littlecity Grand Zoo as the helicopters arrive with the large containers each housing a Auchelosaurus. "I guess we'll have to find a bigger cage. But don't worry, what could POSSIBLY go wrong?"

They could fight and kill each other or you could drop the boxes.

OOC: The lost world theory eh? Not bad. But it doesn't say much for your sattalites.

A raptor in a black uniform walks into CE HQ, and hands a paper to the President.

Great, no slave labor on any 'intelligent dinosaurs, alright?

"No slave labor on any. Don't worry Mr. Frumpy Rumpy Raptor Boy." An obviously dumb eight year old said while ordering a Saspirilla.
