Deinotherium
Deinotherium
(Creature)
Deinotheriums are relatives of elephants with a far shorter temper than their docile cousins. Despite being herbivores, they can attack with little provocation, giving them a false reputation as predators. They are not particularly social animals, unlike their elephant kin, and generally live in families consisting of a calf and its parents; the mother will defend the calf even once it is grown, but the father will leave to find a new mate once the calf has matured. A deinotherium stands 12 feet tall at the shoulder, measures 25 feet from trunk to tail and weighs 30,000 pounds.12
On Golarion
Some mammoth riders choose deinotheriums as animal companions and mounts,3 and some shamans of the mammoth spirit choose deinotheriums as spirit animals.4
