The great megalaukjaw replaced its ancestor, the megalaukjaw and has furthered its development in becoming an advanced land predator. The number of spikes on its back has increased drastically to protect themselves while hunting. Their brains further develop in complexity. Their stomachs developed further to digest meat.
The great megalaukjaw being in such a prey rich environment does not have to spend all its time hunting for food. If they are not out roaming the plains for food they are resting under the trees saving their energy for when they are hunting. They now live and hunt in packs of 4 to 8. They hunt like Earth's lions, the young fast ones restrain the prey while the bigger stronger ones come in for the kill. They will sometimes use their tail grasper to grasp their prey.
During the spring, male great megalaukjaws will brawl with each other to have a right to mate with a female. After mating the parents will build a dirt nest surrounded by protective plants. At birth, the offspring look like premature versions of their parents. They're born with a coat of spikes that cover their entire body that they shed when they grow older. Both the mother and the father will hunt food for their offspring and teach they how to hunt themselves. They mature at the age of 20. Young ones are known to play.
They communicate by making sounds with their nostrils and share the same language as their ancestors and can communicate with other related species.
