Gwaurbo

Gwaurbos are a very strong, very solid creature. They are roughly the height of an average sized Gemclops and are the weight of about a full ton. They have large horns of about a foot around and two feet long. They have a thin and course layer of fur on their bodies, ranging in color from brown to black, and can even be a dark blue. Their tails are about two feet long, and are only really used to swat bugs away. These beasts are the strongest known to the planet, and they are used accordingly.
The Gemclops species has used the Gwaurbos to transport heavy items, such as metal and wood coming from and going to blacksmiths and workshops. These animals are often found in front of a carriage or cart carrying heavy items in large loads. These animals are known for carrying cargo up to their own weight of one ton.
Gwaurbos are often found on farms and at markets, being the first choice when it comes to pulling heavy objects. They’re not often found in the wild, usually found in herds when they are, and never near largely populated areas. Their diet consists mainly of grasses and smaller plants, with the occasional fruit or vegetable mixed in. They have no natural predators. Gwaurbos reach a maximum of 10 miles an hour while running, and average 5 miles an hour walking.

Basic Information

Anatomy

Gwaurbos have long horns that can grow up to two feet in length and one foot around. They stand to be about five feet tall, and eight feet long, not including their tail. They have tails of up to two feet mainly used to swat bugs away.

Genetics and Reproduction

The males and females will pair off and mate with one another in the spring. Over the summer, the female carries the young in the womb until it’s born. When the young are born, the male leaves the female to take care of the newborn on her own. The newborns can typically walk after a day, and start having balance after about a week. It takes about 4 months for a female to carry the child before it’s born, and then another year for it to mature.
