Greetings Ma'am,

I'm Jorge Raymond, Senior Security Officer of OS&C, this subject was forward to me.

There aren't unusual request for OS&C Ma'am. Providing top end entertainment to our passengers require a level of availability uncomon in other companies.
Concerning your request, we have limited zoo facilities, however we may be able to obtain various diferent species, depending on what you are looking for.

With that in mind what kind of animals is DHC interested in?


Signed,

Jorge Raymond

Mr. Raymond,

we need:

- fast breeding animals
- dangerous to humans
- ground, not able to fly
- not bigger than roughly two meters tall

We require also knowledge of its original habitat, natural food sources.


Best regards,

Greetings Miss Richter,

After some research in our files and inquires i have found some species that could fulfill some items on your request, but not quite totally.

I need more information regarding the fast breeding.
What you meant by fast breeding?

An animal with the shortest gestation period.
An animal producing the most offspring in a given period.

Also, you prefer it to be Mammal, Insect or Reptile?


Signed,

Jorge Raymond

Mr. Raymond,

"What you meant by fast breeding?

An animal with the shortest gestation period.
An animal producing the most offspring in a given period."

Preferrably both, if you do have such a species.

After consultation, mammals seem to be worse fit for our task than reptiles or insectoids. Please concentrate on those two groups.

When can we expect some proposals, with species descriptions attached?


Best regards,

Hanna Richter DHC

Greetings Miss Richter,

Thank you for your response, with all the characteristics you ask for we reach the Eoten Spiðra.

The Eoten Spiðra is natural of Planet Carlisle in the Newcastle System, orbited by our Luxury Liner Shetland.

As you may know from orbit, planet Carlisle looks invitingly hospitable with deep oceans and vast continents, but in reality it's a tropical nightmare.
Temperatures at the equator never drop below 60 Celsius. The oceans, however, remain a pleasant 26C in temperature, even quite far to the north and south.
The lush greenery seen from orbit turns into dense, humid jungles and rain forest upon closer inspection, and there are several native creatures that consider humans to be good eating.
The natural food source of the Eoten Spiðra is smaller animals, like other mammals, insects and even youngling Eoten Spiðra

When full grown the Eoten Spiðra has around 2 meters in height

It's incredible deadly, by it's venom or by it's fangs

Females lay up to 3,000 eggs in one or more silk egg sacs, which maintain a fairly constant humidity level.
The males reaches sexual maturity only after about four years and females take a bit longer, up to seven years.

They usually live until 20 years.

This is a picture of the Eoten Spiðra on their natural habitat.





As for another option we got the Crocodylus porosus

The Crocodylus porosus is a formidable and opportunistic hypercarnivorous apex predator. Most prey are ambushed and then drowned or swallowed whole. It is capable of taking almost any animal that enters its territory, including other apex predators such as sharks, a variety of freshwater and marine fish, including pelagic species, invertebrates, such as crustaceans, various reptiles, birds and mammals, including humans. Due to their size, aggression and distribution, saltwater crocodiles are regarded as the most dangerous extant crocodilian to humans.

The Crocodylus porosus, is indigenous to Planet Baden Baben in the Stuttgart system
Like most crocodilians, Crocodylus porosus are not fastidious in their choice of food, and readily vary their prey selection according to availability, nor are they voracious, as they are able to survive on relatively little food for a prolonged period.

The female Crocodylus porosus typically lays from 40 to 60 eggs, but some clutches have included up to 90.
The young naturally start to disperse after around 8 months, and start to exhibit territorial behaviour at around 2.5-year-old. They are the most territorial of extant crocodilians and, due to their aggressiveness to conspecifics, from the dispersed immature stage on, they are never seen in concentrations or loose groups as are most other crocodilians. However, even females will not reach proper sexual maturity for another 10 years. Crocodylus porosus that survive to adulthood can attain a very long lifespan, with an estimated life expectancy upwards of 70 years, and some individuals possibly exceed 100 years, although no such extreme ages have been verified for any crocodilian.

Here you have a picture of the Crocodylus porosus




Best regards

Jorge Raymond

Mr. Raymond,

thank you for these presentations. Our Board has few questions related to them:

- how fast are these animals? Are they faster than human beings?
- how long it takes for them from the moment they are born to become dangerous to human beings?
- is it possible to sterilize them after they are born?
- if not, is it possible to control their population levels in another way, that you know of?
- are they immune to small arms fire? We're talking both energy-based and solid projectile weapons.
- how would they fare in a desert climate? Could they survive? How would it influence the level of danger they normally pose to human beings?


Best regards,

Hanna Richter DHC

Greetings Miss Richter,

Starting from your last question, some smaller crocodiles are believed to survive in desert like conditions, with low levels of water, primarly from rainfall but when the water evaporates, the crocodiles estivate, or pass the summer in a kind of torpor. It's a kind of dry-season hibernation. They don't eat and they keep movement down to a minimum, they sometimes come out at night and lie on the rocks outside their burrows or caves. But Crocodylus porosus does not survive in those conditions.

On the other hand, in the water they are stealthy and faster than human beings, but slower on land.

They become dangerous to human beings after the first year.

It's not possible to steralize them, but it's easy to control their population. The Crocodylus porosus is very territorial, and in a small habitat with not many food choices they canabilize each other, so they control their own population. Another method is to egg control, meaning destroying the eggs in the nest.

Finally the Crocodylus porosus skin is very hard, you will need high calibre guns to wound them, so small fire arms won't hurt them, only enraged them more.


As for the Eoten Spiðra it prefers the tropical rainforest of Planet Carslile, so it won't be able to survive in a desert scenario.

They are fast, faster than an human being and achieve adulthood around 2 years of age.

Like the Crocodylus porosus the Eoten Spiðra is uncapable to be sterilized, but can be controled by destoying their eggs.

They are also very resistance to small arms fire, excepet in some small soft spots, like eyes or the joints of their exoskeleton


We at OS&C have an animal that could be exactly what you are looking for, besides this two.
I haven't mentioned it yet, because we still don't have it on display, it's under study by our research teams and it's extremly dangerous.

Would you like to know more ?

Best regards


Jorge Raymond

Greetings Miss Richter,

Looks like i sparkled your curiosity

We at Orbital Spa & Cruise proud ourselfs of bringing the most exquisite and exotic flora, fauna and locations to our customers. To achieve this goals our survey teams are constantly surveying new systems and planets.

What i'm about to tell you is considered highly sensitive information

In one of our incursions into Galia systems, more precisely into the Orkney system, we start suveying Planet Rousay. The initial scans showed no life signs but our 3D surface mapping showed some interesting caverns entrances.

Using 3D computed tomography we were able to detect a vast network of tunnels that runned for miles. We thought this could be very interesting to OSC as it could give us different things to show to our customers.

This was one of te first 3D mapping we got



Months later we sent the first ground teams to investigated the caverns and what they found was trully amazing as it was scary.
They found on that arid world with no life signs, a strange arachnid species, who lived underground in those caverns. First they thought they would be harmless, but soon they discovered how wrong they were. They were completly slaughtered.

I was on that first survey team providing security, i barely maneged to escape with my life.

A week later we return to the planet with one mission only, capture one of the arachnids. We were successful but at a great cost, 4 of my man died in the process.
At the moment we have been researching the species and so far we can provided you with the following information

It survives in desert conditions, Planet Rousay is completly barren, with no life signs whatsoever in the surface
Is about 2 meters tall
We still don't know how they reproduce, we are still to find females
Are extremly aggressive, fast and deadly
Are completly imune to small arms fire

They behave like a swarm, much like bees, giving the idea to our research team that there should be a Queen of some sort.

Here's what their warriors look like
We called them Tarasque




We also managed to capture one that for what we have been able to observe, are workers



This ones weren't agressive, they even runned away from our team.
However in the mist of this workers we found some bigger ones, more agressive but vulnerable to smal fire arms
We guessed they are some kind of security for the worker force




Is this what you looking for?

Best regards,

Jorge Raymond
