Cerulean Capre
The Cerulean Capre is a hoofed ungulate of the family Brachiornis.
Basic Information
Anatomy
Cerulean Capre are strongly distinguished by their antlers, which are temporary and regularly regrown unlike the permanent horns of Choertaurus. Typical characteristics of Cerulean Capre include long, powerful legs, a long tail, a beak, and long ears.
Genetics and Reproduction
Nearly all Brachiornis are uniparental species meaning the young, known in most species as fawns, are only cared for by the mother, most often called a doe. A doe generally has one or two fawns at a time triplets, while not unknown, are uncommon. Mating season typically begins in early August and lasts until December. With some species mating until late March.
Growth Rate & Stages
Female fawns look the same in their adult stage aside from the dappling on their backs that disappears with age. Male fawns will grow in their antlers at 3 years olds. Both will reach sexual maturity at the age of 4.
Ecology and Habitats
Cerulean Capre's have been found around tropical climate in forests, around shoreline and few reports in swamps.
Dietary Needs and Habits
Cerulean Capre's are browsers that eat leaves, Shrubs, and trees with them usually choosing the soft foilage and young leaves. Cerulean Capre require large amount of minerals such as calcium and phosphate in order to support antler growth. There are have been few reports of Cerulean Capre engaging in carnivorous activity, such as eating dead Ŭrburthi along the oceanshore or depredating Roc eggs.
Biological Cycle
Stags start growing antlers and bright color feathers in spring and are shed each year, usually at the end of winter. During winter the stags will resemble does in colors but will lack feathers on their forearms.
Behaviour
Male Cerulean Capre usually stay in single-sex groups for most of the year. During the mating season, called the rut, mature stags compete for the attentions of does and will then try to defend the does they attract. Rival stags challenge opponents by belling, walking in parallel, and flaring their forearm feather. This allows combatants to assess each other's antlers, body size and fighting prowess.
