Great burgundy flag-goose

The great burgundy flag-goose is part of a clade of grazing tapajarids originating in the eastern continent of the known world and spreading across the planet. Exploiting the now vacant niche of large terrestrial herbivore following the most recent mass extinction, the clade moved from omnivores and frugivores into bulk feeders, evolving into both the heaviest flying pterosaurs of Feorrlund and into a flightless clade. The flag-geese is a polyphyletic grouping of basal members, with Odontorostruvexilla and its relative evolving a cropping beak and psuedoteeth to feed on a variety of grasses, migrating between feeding grounds in vast flocks. Although never domesticated, their seasonal abundance plays a crucial role in a variety of cultures across multiple sophonts.
