The Morellatops, also known by the nickname Camelsaurus, is one of the Creatures in Scorched Earth expansion pack.
Basic Info
Dossier
- Wild: Morellatops dromedarius seems to be a relative of both the Morelladon and Ceratops genuses, which in itself is rather strange. On top of that, it has developed to ability to store water in its humps like a camel. This makes it a critical part of the desert's food chain, as it provides predators with both food and hydration.
- Domesticated: When survivors discovered how to tap into the water in Morellatops humps without harming it, the docile creature became the desert's essential pack animal. Not only can it carry a good amount of weight, but it can provide survivors with a large, mobile water source that can mean the difference between life and death on any given journey.
- Known Information: Morellatops has limited options when it comes to self defense, so I would not recommend taking one into combat. However, so long as survivors don't forget to let Morellatops stop by a well every now and then, they will find the creature an invaluable companion.
Behavior
The Morellatops is a passive creature, but with at least one other specimen around they become defensive. A pack of Morellatops - if provoked - attacks until all members but one are dead, the last survivor will try to retreat.
Appearance
The Morellatops appears to have the hump of the Iguanodontid: Morelladon, and the face of a Ceratopsian dinosaur. It has ridges of protofeathers going down its sides, and also has bony lumps placed throughout the body. Note that this is not a real dinosaur so there is no scientifically accurate counterpart.

Roles
Water Tank: Morellatops has the unique ability to store 750 units of water, allowing a survivor to have a mobile water tank.
Water can be put inside into storage by collecting cactie using the Morellatops, or by drinking from water sources, such as Water Wells. They can fill up containers such as waterskins by placing them in the dino's inventory and clicking "remote use item."
Berry Gatherer: The Morellatops is a fairly easy tame, requiring only berries, and with an easy to craft saddle. This dinosaur could be an intermediate to tame more valuable dinosaurs such as the Ankylosaurus or the Doedicurus.

Notes/Trivia
- Players can acquire water from its sail-back when needed.
- It actually isn't a real dinosaur, but was invented by the developers, which the dossier said as combination of "Morelladon", an iguanodontian and "Ceratops", a ceratopsian, which are not closely related, this combination also form its generic name.
- Its specific name dromedarius refers to its resemblance to camel, specifically dromedary (one-humped) camel, which they share the same species name.
