The Mastodon is a large terrestrial Tiberium lifeform that evolved from elephants. Initially found in it's natural habitats located in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, herds of it have been found moving further north, apparently attracted by the large quantities of Tiberium created from the Liquid Tiberium Eruption years ago. Known for it's temperance, resilience, and strength, the Guardians have taken to taming it and use it as a beast of burden. As the threat posed by CABAL and the Scrin ever increases, some of the more militant Guardians began using it as a war beast instead by strapping an old tank turret on it's back. It seemed ridiculous at first, but battles have shown it to be a very effective as an organic battle tank. It's tough hide can withstand conventional anti-tank weapons better and it can heal itself in Tiberium fields if injured. The dual 90mm cannons on it's back can make short work of most vehicles. Beastmasters can further enhance it's combat capability, making it a very serious threat. CABAL's encounters with this beast have led to him bolstering his forces with more Catalyst weapons, which are very effective against Tiberium lifeforms.
