Therolamna therophagus

Species name: Therolamna therophagus
Ancestor: T. Pelagicus
Zone(s): 4
Size: 2 ft in length and 10 lbs
Reproduction: they have evolved internal fertilization but lay the eggs roughly 2 weeks after fertilization. They have evolved this as a more effective way of fertilizing the eggs as there is no chance the Eggs won’t be fertilized due to currents. This happened when the females began to hold the eggs inside them longer and in order to fertilize them males developed a channel along their pelvic fins that they insert into the female to fertilize the eggs, this channel connects to the cloaca similarly to magnamandibula
Food/Sustenance: they eat the recent influx of marine muscals into zone 4 like H. Lepidoptera , D. Robustus, and H. Unguladontus but will not shy away from attacking larger prey like B. Mimicus and juvenile natans which are hunted by distracting them with one individual while the other rush in to bite it and then wait for it to bleed to death. smaller small things like H. rotundus,T pelagicus,C. Aquatillium, C. Communis, and other small muscals are usually hunted solo

General description: the dramatic increase in size from its ancestor is due to its focus on larger muscals than its ancestor, which require larger body size in order to effectively predate upon them as well as a simple form of cooperative hunting. this streamlined predator has an enlarged caudal fin that is lunate which allows for more efficient cruising as well as larger teeth than its ancestors. it’s teeth are adapted for tearing through flesh and became triangular with a smooth cutting edge along with 2 cusplets near the base instead of 1 to improve the grip of the tooth by having the main cusps be spaced out. they prey on larger prey in unorganized mobs of 3-5 depending on how much larger the prey is and they might hunt small muscals solo but will rejoin the clan once done
