| Wouldn't this be prey to the Tyrannical Vonnegona, a snoa specifically specialized to hunt big game? How would it defend itself against such a giant carnivore? |

| Does it have fewer toes now? |

Wrong species, I said the Tyrannical Vonnegona |

Oops! Well the scalemail-like quills should help protect it. I will add a part to the description. |

Will say the Tyrannical Vonnegona's main strategy is to establish a bite before wrestling the prey to the ground. One the prey is pinned down, it will use their sickle claw to cut open the underbelly to kill the target, so your tamow will need a way to avoid this. |

Ok added. Let me know what you think. |

| "full grown": "fully-grown". "should protect[...]" Do you mean to say that Giant Tamows' armor makes it difficult for Tyrannical Vonnegonas to attack compared to their other prey species, but it does not give Giant Tamows full protection? "on alter": What do you mean? Is this a stray word? While the hind right leg does suggest three toes, it's still not obvious. Both horses and ostriches are large animals which have fewer toes than their ancestors, although this could also be a cursorial adaptation. You could probably textually clarify toe number with a brief description of adaptations in its feet and legs for such an immense size. |

| If I may ask, does this feller still have fur or is it completely covered by the scale mail armor? If it still has fur, maybe the scale mail armor could have its color tweaked to better separate it from the fur? |
