Pyrobob: Well, mostly because I felt like it, and also, wouldn't it be nice if the animals showed what kind of vertebrae they are.
(The groups of vertebrae are: Mammals, Birds, Reptiles, Amphibians, and Fish.)
The system is kinda like the subtypes for humanoids (Ex: Humans, Elf, Dwarf, Goblinoid, ect. ect.)
Ferret: 'The really wild show', Thats the one with Michaela Straken right? And why in damnation do you think that I have the stats for the achidna?
