Biological Adaptations
Bullfango's possess a tough furry coat. This fur is insulating enough to keep them warm in the mountains and other cold environments. Bullfango also have a powerful nose. Their snout is able to smell out any potential threat, be it human or wyvern, from great distances. Bullfango are most known for their tusks. These tusks are elongated incisors that continually grow as the beast ages. They are present in both male and female, with their practical purposes being defense and a digging tool when searching for food. Bullfango tusks are much larger in males. Once a Bullfango male reaches a certain size and tusk length, it is officially referred to as a Bulldrome.
