Dylanus

Dylanuses are more man-like than any other mammals, with one species resembling a European human. Almost all of the dylanus species are omnivores, with 1 species herbivorous and the other one almost fully carnivorous. In evolution, dylanuses first evolved in 5 million years ago, 4 million years before the first humans evolved. Dylanuses are actually not primates at all, but part of the carnivoran mammal family that is closely related to meerkats, fossas, civets, hyenas, mongooses, binturongs, and genets. Their ancestors originally lived in North American forests in 30 mya as mongoose-like small mammals, which had migrated from Asia few million years earlier, but later in 18 mya, they evolved into lion-sized, cougar-like animals with hyena-like heads known as cetofelises. At about 5 mya, the few cetofelises had developed the bipedal locomotion, less carnivorous and more omnivorous diet, their tails disappearing, claws becoming nails, their brains grow larger and smarter, and they became almost hairless, thus evolving into dylanuses. While the surviving cetofelises died out, many species of dylanuses have survived.

These are the known dylanus species that are still alive today:


 * American Common Dylanus


 * American Killer Dylanus


 * Florida Running Dylanus


 * Asian Dylanus


 * European Dylanus


 * African Dylanus


 * New Zealand Giant Dylanus


 * Madagascar Giant Dylanus


 * Madagascar Trumpet-Nosed Dylanus

While the Indian Giant Dylanus was the largest of all dylanuses, about 18-19.5 feet tall and weighed 2.5 tons, even bigger than today's Madagascar giant dylanuses.
