Tanor:
Howler
Height: Eight Feet
Weight: Half a ton
Color: Rust to white
These immense, predatory apes are theorized by some to be an offshoot of early hominids. Dangerous, crafty, and always hungry, these beasts are known to eat lost travelers.
Basilisk
Length: Twenty Feet+
Weight: Several Tons. It should be noted that one has never been captured and controlled long enough to be weighed as these beasts are immune to most toxins and are nigh impossible to kill with fire without, well, changing those results.
Color: Brown with red spots.
These vegetarian behemoths are the single most armored creature in the known cosmos, being immune even to most weapons.
Tree Python
Length:
Weight: Almost a ton.
Color: Bright Green with yellow eyes ringing most of the body and white patterns.
These actually aren't snakes at all, but a species of primal amphibian. With a mouth ringed with four, large fangs, and it's distinctive lack of any other facial features, or for that matter, a face, these beasts are thought to be the single most deadly predator to humans, after, of course, it's native rival, the Howler.
Tree Crab
Size: 4 feet from leg to leg.
Weight: 50 pounds.
Color: Brown with bright orange-purple spots.
These crabs are known to carry around moss on their bodies as a food reserve in case of a forest fire. They are mostly vegetarians, with the exception of the occasional lizard or fish. These crabs are a favorite food for the Tree Python.
Canix
Size: Three feet long; four with tail.
Height: Two feet from shoulder to claw.
Weight: 130 pounds
Color: Gray-green and brown.
These wolf-like creatures hunt in large packs. They prey off the Howlers and Tree Crabs. They are extremely adept at navigating the jungle and can even climb trees.
