Jocol

The Jockol is a tall breed that resembles a Coyote.

Description
Jocols are smaller than Lupins yet larger than Kits. They have narrow, elongated ears that help them pinpoint hidden prey and act as a temperature regulator. Being highly adaptive, they can have thick or thin coats, depending on the surrounding environment. They typically weigh between 20 and 45 pounds and stand 24 to 40 inches tall at the shoulder. Though not as fast as Lupins during shorter sprints, Jocols can actually out-run their larger cousins over a long distance.

Behavior
Jocols are an incredibly imaginative breed. They have fanciful yet ingenious ideas about how to improve the world and often embark on long, rigorous journeys of study. They are generally a very social breed and open to friendly outsiders, though they aren’t afraid to defend themselves when provoked. Jocols are also remarkably vocal. They can produce a wide range of noises and often prefer sing-song conversation rather than just talking. Melody and song is interwoven with the stories they pass down through the generations, allowing them to store and recall a vast amount of information.

When facing a difficult situation, Jocols tend to find a creative way to solve it. They are able to escape seemingly impossible dilemmas with relative ease. Other creatures consider them to be incredibly lucky, but Jocols attribute their good fortune to resourcefulness and imagination.
