Towerhorn

The towerhorn split from its ancestor the dashrack. It made its way to the savanna and scublands where it discovered the savanna orbipalm to eat. It grew taller and taller in order to reach the leaves of the tree. Its tail became a third leg to support its long neck. The butt-nostril which is on the end of the tail split into 6 holes, which can now be found on the sides of each of the tripod-like "toes" of the tail. On each "toe" the spikes turned into hoofs. Its "wings" and front arms have completely disappeared as well. On its long neck its crest now flows down like a mane and its horn has become lighter so it can hold its head up.

It is still a fast runner but not as fas as it ancestor anymore. The towerhorns lives in large herds that travel seasonally across the scrub and savanna, feeding on trees. When encountered by predators they run in a single direction grouping and regrouping, using their leg stripes to confuse predators. If cornered, the towerhorn can use powerful kicks as well as head-butting. At night several sentries use their keen eyesight at the edges of the herd to spot night predators.

The towerhorn is led by several dominant males and females. The dominant ones don't have sole mating rights, but they do have control over where the herd goes. The dominant males and females have more brightly colored horns and neck manes than the rest of the herd. All members of the herd can mate and both sexes use head thrashing and head bobbing, showing off bright colors. Males fight over females by locking their horns and trying to push the other over.
