The "bush-antlered deer" and "cave lion" already have those names in their description, so I'm happy with them as-is.Any objections to the following:Agriotherium (Savannah Bear)Agriotherium is not a true bear, but rather a hemicyonid, close relatives of bears built for running. They prefer open terrain, so are sometimes called "savannah bears". Rather than the omnivory of most bears, Agriotherium is a true carnivore, feeding mostly on the flesh of elephants, rhinos and other huge beasts, although it can and will scavenge and feed on fruits, grubs and honey. Agriotherium hunts in pairs or in small packs, and these groupings are very territorial--they are likely to view intrusions of humanoids into their ranges as a threat. Amebelodon (Shovel-Tusked Mastodon)The amebelodon is a mastodon-sized proboscidean adapted to life in swamps and rivers. It uses its shovel-like tusks to scoop up water plants which make up the bulk of its diet or to scrape bark from trees. Bear, Short-Faced (Bulldog Bear)This immense, long-legged bear has a face resembling a bulldog or mastiff. It rears up on its hind legs, standing as tall as a fire giant, and lets out a mighty roar.Sarkastodon (Long-Tailed Bear)Although it superficially resembles a long-tailed bear or heavyset cat, Sarkastodon is a creodont, a seperate lineage of carnivorous mammal. One of the largest carnivorous mammals ever to live, Sarkastodon specializes on hunting enormous prey, such as brontotheres and Indricotherium. Its bite can crush bone and its stomach is acidic enough to digest it, leaving little left for the scavengers.</blockquote>
