I have no name for this help.
-Its ancient ancestors were birds. As they evolved, the ability to fly was lost and they began to glide, thus the feathers on the arms. Unfortunately, the as they became bigger and heavier, gliding too was lost, and so the feathers only use is now to attract mates.
-Slightly larger than a house cat, some of the largest reach knee-height.
-Front arms are very weak, however back legs are very strong. Although they are incredibly fast when running on all fours, they have low stamina and prefer to stalk their prey until the moment is right.
-Typically, they hunt alone, catching smaller prey. However, in groups even as small as 3, they grow in confidence and will hunt whatever comes along, with the size of the prey not being an issue.
-They cannot meow like cats, however communicate by chirps, purrs and hisses. They are fairly social, and bonding time in groups is important in order to build trust.
-Retractable claws in all four paws allow they to climb trees with ease, often to escape danger. They are also very flexible, allowing them to hide in tight spaces. They cannot see too well in the dark, but their whiskers allow them to feel-out spaces.
-They come in many colours and patterns. Unlike traditional raptors, these are more adapted to cooler environments due to their layer of fur, which gets longer during winter months.
