Coelurus (sɪˈljʊərəs, "si-LURE-əs") is a genus of small coelurosaurian dinosaur from the Late Jurassic of North America.
Known for its lightweight build and long legs, it was likely a fast, agile predator or opportunistic scavenger.

Appearance

• Slender, lightweight body built for speed
• Long legs and narrow torso, giving it a "shadow-through-the-brush" silhouette
• Small head with sharp teeth suited for catching small prey
• In-game size: 3 blocks long and 2 blocks tall

Behavior

• Hostile (Requires 2): A single Coelurus will not attack the player; when two or more are present, they become aggressive and coordinate attacks
• Skittish when alone, bold in groups
• Prefers brushland, forest edges, and lightly wooded areas

Obtaining

Coelurus does not spawn naturally. To obtain one, you must:

1. Find Coelurus Remains or fossils
2. Use the fossil revival process to create a Coelurus
3. Hatch from an Alligator Egg type egg

Diet

• Carnivore: feeds on meat sources
• Hunts small animals and scavenges when necessary

Drops

• Coelurus Remains
• Coelurus Raw Meat

Mr. DNA's Fun Trivia

• The achievement "The Brushland Shadow" references Coelurus's stealthy appearance and preference for brushland habitats
• The name Coelurus means "hollow tail," referring to its lightweight, hollow-boned skeleton
• Coelurus's pack behavior mechanic adds strategic depth, as lone individuals are harmless but groups become dangerous
