Enoboya

Overview

The Enoboya are found in the mountainous regions of Inanta. They are prized for their hairy fur, which can be used in potions, to make magical thread, and weaved into magical cloth.  A few citizens from Volary have domesticated the Enoboya and started breeding them for their fur.  They treat them like sheep and sheer them once a year. Enoboya fur is very expensive.

Basic Information

Anatomy

The Enoboya are small, hairy, upright-walking, ape-like or humanoid creatures that live in mountainous regions.  They tend to run 2-3 feet tall and weigh between 100 to 200 lbs.  Their long-haired fur comes in black, brown, red, and white.  They have two arms and two legs.

Genetics and Reproduction

The Enoboya have both a male and female sex.  They reproduce through sexual intercourse.  Enoboya reach sexual maturity at approximately 5 years old.  Each female has four heats per year.  The heat cycle last for 100 days with each heat lasting 20-30 days at the end of the cycle, where she will attract the males of the species.  If she is impregnated during the heat, the pregnancy will last for approximately 80 days from ovulation.  Each pregnancy will produce one to three offspring, rarely more.  After a pregnancy, the female Enoboya will not start a heat cycle again until the Enoboya pups are weaned, usually 120 days.

Growth Rate & Stages

Enoboya take 5 years to reach sexual maturity.

• Birth to 3 Months: Taking nutrition from mom
• 4 Months to 6 Months: Gain teeth, Gain weight quickly, Lose baby fur and gain real fur, Immunity Gap*
• 6 Months to 1 Year: Gains half their adult weight, Needs double their adult nutritional requirements
• 1 Year to 4 Years: Mostly skeletal growth, Weight gain slows down

Enoboya female heats run every 100 days for the next 15-18 years until the body starts losing the ability to process the hormones needed for heats and pregnancy.  

*Immunity Gap - From 4-6 months, when the Enoboya pup is no longer taking nutrients from the mom, there is a time where their immunity is not able to compensate for itself.  Take special care that the pup doesn't get sick during this time period.
