Ursig
An ursig is a giant wild boar that roams the Teluae Forests . Contrasting most creatures in the Teluae Forests bizarre or other worldly characteristics, the ursig is for all intents and purposes simply a massive boar, given the fierce and tough nature of boars this seems to be enough for the ursig to thrive in it's area of the forest.
Basic Information
Behaviour
An aggressive and bold animal that's smart enough to realize the realities of their situation, they will fight most anything fiercely, but in their habitat they have learned that fleeing is at times a necessity.
Additional Information
Perception and Sensory Capabilities
An extremely keen sense of smell, so precise that it has caused speculation that the ursig does in fact posess some supernatural capabilities.
Lifespan
12-14 years
Average Height
The average male ursig has a shoulder height of about 2.3-2.7 meters, with females typically being 1.9-2.1. The tallest spotted ursig was believed to be over 3.5 meters, though the source himself admits that he could've been mistaken. Given the nature of the teluae forests however, his estimate is not seen as unreasonable.
Average Weight
3000+ kg, no one has ever been foolish enough to attempt to weigh one of these creatures, getting one to cooperate while alive would be essentially impossible, and hunting them is an incredibly difficult task, which few survive. Dragging their bulk back to a safe place to measure it would take more manpower than can be logistically supported in most excursions into the forests, so no significant efforts have been made to attempt it.
Average Length
The average length of an ursig is around 5 meters for males and 4.8 for females
