Introducing Nothosaurus!
This is my first fan-made dossier for Nothosaurus!
Common name: Nothosaurus
Time: Early Triassic
Diet: Carnivore
Temperament: Agressive

Wild:
Nothosaurus raabi is one of the more aggressive creatures I have encountered in the rivers and coastal waters of the island. Smaller in size than either Kaprosuchus and Sarcosuchus it has trouble competing for food with the larger crocodiles. It has one small advantage over the Kaprosuchus and Sarcosuchus, its ability to go into the oceans. This ability it uses to the fullest. It is found more commonly in the coastal shallows than the rivers to prevent competition with other semi-aquatic predators.
Usually preying on fish and small dinosaurs that wander to close to the water it manages to sustain itself. Being one of the smaller animals in the vast oceans it is not uncommon to see Nothosaurus hunting in groups of 2 or 3.
Although Nothosaurus is primarily a creature of the water I have seen it lounging around on the beaches of the island, but when a large land carnivore comes it is quick to slide back into the water where it is not as vulnerable.

Domesticated:
Nothosaurus is commonly used to quickly explore the ocean using its long tail as propulsion. Some survivors question its uses but when they see its smooth agility they soon attempt to get one for themselves. The Nothosaurus it seems to be able to dodge 1 in 3 attacks by such predators as Meglodon and Mosasaurus. Many survivors use this to their advantage when in need of an escape.

I hope you liked this dossier tell me if its too op or anything and things that i can do better next time!
Thanks!

I think it's nice but if anything it needs to be as different from the Sarco, Kapro and Baryonyx as possible otherwise it has no use and wont get added.
