❑ Camptos are highly social and affectionate beings in their own herds, cooing, grooming and nuzzling one another to form strong familiar bonds. They can also be seen chasing each other around or playing friendly games of keep away or jumping over one another.
❑ Purely nomadic, Camptos perfer to roam around the region in search of their next meal or the perfect place to roll around and have a dirt bathe.
❑ These small creatures are highly skittish. At the first sounds of a branch snapping you can find them scattering in all directions, before rising up onto the hide legs to look around for the threat. When they are in larger groups of 10 or more, they are a bit more bold and will swam the threat if it is within their own size or close to it.
❑ Camptos like most of the herbivore species are known to adopt orphaned young, taking them into their protective group.
❑ This species makes a great 'watch dog' for other herbivores as they will instantly broadcast loudly with distressed calls when a threat is nearby, alerting other herbivores nearby. It is due to this that Camptos are often seen herding with other species in small groups, using the larger creatures as protection.

❑ Biome: this species has been seen living in all regions across the land.
