Brumpshkrump
The Brumpshkrump is otherwise known as Brumpikus Shkrumpdidlyicious was discovered by professor R.J. Bordejeaux in 1998 in the small town of Manchster, Washington.



Description
A fully grown male Brumpshkrump is typically around 8 feet tall and 10 feet long and weighs about 1500 lbs. This is quite surprising for something that lives in trees. These animals are best left alone, for they will bite if you get too close. The fur on this creature is thick and bushy, which helps to hold heat in the damp northwest winter.

Classification
The Brumpshkrump is a mammal. The male of the species has a beard; the females and young do not. The Brumpshkrump in professor Bordejeaux's picture as you can see is a male.

Habitat
These creatures primarily inhabit the Pacific Northwest in Washington State. They are mostly found living in wooded areas but you can sometimes find young Brumpshkrump (known as Brumpshkrimp) braving the ocean waters in search of bullhead kelp.

The Brumpshkrump build nests in the tallest trees. These nests are similar to those built by Bald Eagles, only about five times as large.

Predators
The main predators of the Brumpshkrump are Bears and Sasquatch. The Brumpskrumps only defence, besides its formidable buck teeth, is a tail full of porcupine-like quills. Occasional reports of Sasquatch howling in the wilderness are likely a result of a failed Brumpshkrump hunt.

Diet
Brumpshkrump are herbivores. It's primary diet consists of berries, nuts, and leaves. When it can find it, it also eats honey.

Behavior
This animal is shy and usually lives in peace but can become aggressive when provoked. Adult Brumpshkrump cannot swim (they have forgotten how), but are known for swinging gracefully from branch to branch.
