TRABASAUR: Any one of a number of species of work animal designed, genetically engineered, and bred for use in heavy labor. Trabasaurs distinguish themselves from other animals in that they can operate in diverse harsh environments without modification, and survive on minimal food and water. Superficially, trabasaurs often resemble dinosaurs, although this is purely cosmetic; trabasaurs are not genetically related to them.
