(I will be updating this story a lot more just focusing on other stuff

Another 6 months and it has officially been a year since the birth of Protoceratops herd and they were nearly fully grown at 1 m long they were already 1.8 meters tall and you could tell they were nearly fully grown because their tail bristles were coming in and started moving around more comfortably not being as scared as they used to be when they were little although still small Probably one of the few dinosaurs that were below human height even fully grown as Carlos mashup up the same blend and placed it in the tray it was clear they were getting to big for a single tray to share even though he enjoyed watching them eat it was time to release them but before that he had to set them up with what kind of plants to eat.
(Yes I know tail bristles weren't prominent on protoceratops depending on the continuity but in my opinion they probably did have tail bristles and used them to wipe the sand for dead roots and break open ant mounds and it does feel scientifically possible)
He proceeded to adventure out and uproot a wild fern an wild cranberry bush and shoots of wild grass Bring them back and placing them in the enclosure the protoceratops after a few minutes became extremely hungry and slightly aggressive eventually they checked out their options sniffing and checking over all 3 buck and bull liked The cranberry bush both the berries and the leaves but the females liked the ferns and grass it was quite interesting to see that they had different preferences as food immediately a few minutes later he heard bellows and the sound of crashing.
As he ran outside bull and buck were roughhousing charging up and running with their head down slamming into each other creating that crashing crack like sound as the continued bull and buck ran in going for another clash but bull overpowered buck knocking him over declaring himself the leader after having them get used to eating wild vegetation that grows around the area he Carlos waited another month just until they were 2 m long armed with the fact that they were basically already fully grown he opened the gate and after slight hesitation while making sure it was safe bull stepped out first sniffing the air it was damp and humid meet me at hard to smell anything it was specially foggy today although it was light enough that you could see through it at a certain point your vision couldn't tell what was real from fake.
As they stepped out together their herd instincts kicked in before bull was at the front after declaring himself the leader The others were naturally inclined to follow his lead buck was right behind him as The three females spread out around them making a rombus like shape as they continued forward they eventually went so far that they disappeared through the fog and the only thing you could hear were there roars Carlos was proud although there was no telling which predators were on this island at least if they were lucky they would maybe run into Fox's or wolfs.
Carlos turned around went back in his house and decided to go retrieve the beacons and place them somewhere else maybe if he was lucky he could find some more surface fossils but he decided that if he didn't he would work on his drill allowing it to dig deeper without breaking and purchase some better materials from the eco-pad
E.P:« congratulations host on raising your first prehistoric reptiles into adulthood you have received 110$ ecological dollars or E.D for sure good luck and don't forget to purchase new materials in the shop»
As Carlos was out placing the beacons somewhere out there the protoceratops stopped to eat and rest they had already traveled deep into the red wood wilderness as they ate vegetation and pine cones an wolf looking for an easy meal appeared staying with you believed it to be just out of sight from these new creatures bull noticed it's silhouette in the fog and started moving around positioning itself in front of the wolf path as it started positioning itself to charge forward bull turned sliding his left foot across the ground as he roared The Wolf charge forward but will also charge forward as the wolf lunch to pull ran straight forward pushing off the ground with his front legs slamming into the Wolf chest with unprecedented force as an crack rumble through the area of the other protoceratops huddled together As the wolf ran off with broken ribs.
