[QUOTE="Tonguez, post: 8089530, member: 1125"] Iirc palorchestes had a proboscis (like a tapir) and was at least semi-aquatic so a cultural memory of Palorchestes does make sense to me at least. Also in an eerie parallel the Palorchestes also defied description for a long time - when fossils were first discovered it was described by as the largest form of kangaroo, and museums even made displays of kangaroos with a proboscis. However by the 1940s people had started to depict it as a quadraped (a weird Kangaroo-Okapi looking thing with long forelimbs) but later evidence was gathered to show that Palorchestes was closer in form to a giant Wombat (where it currently sits with habits and form similar to a Ground sloth) Anyway I would love for your Bunyip to have a proboscis, I also think if probably needs an inherent fear effect and not just from the howl [/QUOTE]
