Doberman gator

This article contains information about a non-canonical subject that, while official, is not part of the established Halo universe.

Part dog, part gator.

The "doberman gator" was a reptile-like animal that was cut out from Halo 2, but appeared in its Collector's Edition DVD.^[1]

Transcript[edit]

Robert McLees: "Hey!"
Marcus Lehto: "There you go, Rob."
Shi Kai Wang: "It's the... uh..."
Robert McLees: "Gator...?"
Shi Kai Wang: "Dog...?"
Robert McLees: "Doberman...?"
Marcus Lehto: "Doberman gator?"

Trivia[edit]

It appears from the transcript above that Bungie originally did not know what to name the creature, and simply fused "Doberman" and "Gator" together to form the label "doberman gator."
Its anatomy also slightly resembles that of the prehistoric Gorgonopsids which lived on Earth within the Permian. There are also similarities between it and Ambulocetus; an aquatic as well as terrestrial ancestor of Earth's Cetaceans which lived throughout the Eocene.
