Croaking Morogodo(Anurodion Artiodata)
 
Having some resemblances with the Antilope, the Morogodo also belongs to the herbivore family.
It's an animal that roams alone through the forests in Pantagonia. Living in such an environment alone, the Morogodo almost lost all their hearing, but in counterpart they developed some habilities as their ancestor ,the chameleon, having eyes that can survey the area while feeding, aswell as the extensive tongue, that enables them to eat the highest juicy leaf's.
Having the lack of numbers to resist predators attemps, Morogodo is equiped with strong forepaws with big claws.
This particular species during the mating season, echoes their calls through the forest in order to captivate the female, filling up the pouch with air and showing off it's vivid colors.

Cliffhanger Hornbill (Anthraceros Falandis)
 
The Cliffhanger Hornbill species is found mostly at the base of the Fish River Canyon, Namibia. The closest relative to this species is the Ostrich, and like the Ostrich, the Cliffhanger Hornbill can't use their wings to fly. To survive in the Canyon this species learned how to climb the canyon walls by making use of their strong legs and opposable thumbs. They also climb in nesting season due to the fact that their nest's are made between the major cracks on the canyon wall's, to protect the babies from predators.
Very territorial, the males usually end up in battles of strength, banging the knife shaped horns against each other, to see who is the strongest.
