design is mainly based on the gorgonopsid, crocodiles and lynx with inspirations from catfish, pterodons, dimetrodons and other predatory mammals. this is the male of their species, having a larger head crest and back spine as well as more saturated reds and oranges- the females being brown in color.

species name is Gorgonsuchus, but it was only meant to be a temporary title until i find a better name.

this species lives on the planet "loki" which is in perpetual ice storms except for temperate zones that frequently moves around the planet. the atmosphere is bright reds and oranges, making the sky red instead of blue. this species tends to stay in temperate zones hunting herbivores that also stay in those zones. though they can survive in the storms, when they spend enough time in the storm zones, their fur desaturates into a more white/orange color to match the snow and the sky boucing off the snow/
