Sportkiller

A "sportkiller" is an animal who kills other animals for a poor reason. While some carnivores have to hunt for food, other animals, both carnivore and herbivore will randomly go on a killing spree for their own entertainment.

Animals commonly used to sportkill are the African Lion, Cape Buffalo or Nile Crocodile due to having high health and strong attacks, though not all of these animals are sportkillers. Sometimes sportkillers team up, making them harder to get rid of.

The most common animal for sportkilling is the buffalo, because it has high health and can even kill crocodiles, and it has strong attacks and fast running speed. The second most common is the crocodile, as it's health is extremely high, and it's attacks can kill within a few hits. It lurks in a crowded pond, waits for an animal to walk near the surface, and then it will rush out and drag them into the pond, drowning them into their watery doom.

Reasons For KOSing/Sportkilling
Sportkillers must sportkill for a reason, they never truly kill for "no reason." Usually, for one of the following: The following reasons for attacking/killing do NOT make the attacker a sportkiller:
 * Boredom
 * "Trolling" - annoying other players and disrupting roleplaysfor their own entertainment
 * They think that because the game's genre is "fighting" it gives them the right to randomly attack everyone for no reason.
 * They hate a species of animal (Eg: Crocodiles are a commonly hated species due to their reputation for being aggressive) and want to wipe them out
 * Players have had an argument over something in the chat and are now resorting to fighting/mauling each other over and over in the game.
 * Killing weaker species (commonly impalas, gazelles and storks) just because they're there, and they're easy and satisfying to kill.
 * Overly-territorial animals - An animal might get attacked or even killed, even if they are innocent, just because they accidentally stepped onto someone's territory.
 * Killing someone who speaks a different language just for that reason - due to language barriers it can be hard to communicate so both parties will find it more difficult to trust each other, however this is where Google Translate and/or a person who knows both languages comes in handy. Be nice to foreigners!
 * Hunting for prey, due to hunger.
 * Fending hostile animals off
 * Attacking someone who has asked to be killed, usually so they can respawn as a different animal.
 * Accidentally attacking someone
 * Attacking/killing/chasing a player who is being rude in the chat.
