How Did They Domesticate Them? - Tumblr Posts

If you asked me to envision a burdenbeast, my first guess would have been cow. Then horse; after all, people milk horses. Afterwards, I’d have started wracking my brain, trying to think of all the different animals people have used for pulling heavy loads, riding, and dairy, with the assumption that maybe we didn’t use them for all three of those tasks but the people of Terra did. Then I’d imagine some sort of fantasy animal.

Needless to say…

…megacerops was not in my list of possibilities. In fact, if you sat me down and told me I had to guess what a burdenbeast was to leave, I’d probably die in that seat.

Definitely not complaining, though. It’s a wonderful idea.
