Extinct Antilocaprids in GURPS

North America was home to numerous extinct antilocaprids from the Miocene to Pleistocene. We know them only from fossils, so we lack a lot of evidence about their habits and physiology. To give them game stats, I had to make some assumptions and I assumed that those most closely related to pronghorns had similar capabilities but as we get to the more divergent species they become more "generic" ruminants, like other plains-dwelling deer and antelope. Of course, plains-dwelling deer and antelpe are still very diverse, a fact which is not reflected here. GMs should feel free to alter these templates to change aspects such as Ground Move, Increased/Reduced Endurance, FP, Enhanced Move, and especially behavioral traits (is Hexameryx Stubborn? Is Cosoryx Bad Tempered?).
