Ecology: Another mammal-like predator, Gladiodon will take both herbivores (such as Bifurcatops and Chaly-Tops), but also other carnivores. Male Gladiodon are also known for their courtship displays, shaking their large dorsal crests as they strut and yawn, exhibiting large saber teeth, while the females pick the one who most impresses them.

Personality/Motivation: Typical animal motivations.

Powers/Tactics: Ambush predators, Gladiodon will pounce on prey, delivering a savage bite with their saber teeth. The animal will then leap away and let blood loss do in its prey, following at a safe distance.

Appearance: Measuring 8 to 18 feet in length, Gladiodon is a huge mammal-like reptile, with grayish skin, red stripes, and a large dorsal fan (of crest) running down its back.

Designer's Notes: Gladiodon was created by blending together elements from various World of Kong character sheets I'd already written. It didn't appear in King Kong.
