Jakovasaurs are strange anthropomorphic duck-like creatures who appear in the Season Three episode "Jakovasaurs". They were thought to be extinct but were rediscovered by Eric Cartman while on a camping trip with the other boys. The Jakovasaurs had a short-lived sitcom.
Background[]
After the town aided the Jakovasaurs to successfully reproduce they realized just how annoying they really were and disposed of them by sending them with similar annoying, clumsy and loud people by placing them on a flight to France. The French enjoyed the clumsy antics of the Jakovasaurs and let them stay in their country. Cartman seems to be the only one in South Park who doesn’t find the Jakovasaurs to be annoying.
Appearance[]
Jakovasaurs are large lanky creatures resembling humanoid ducks with either pink or greenish blue lips. Male Jakovasaurs, such as Jakov, have green lips and females, such as Junjun, have pink lips. From what we can see of their offspring, they come in various colors independent of gender, such as yellow, fleshtone, green and orange. They have strands on hair on the tops of their head. They also have very thin necks and big heads. They speak incredibly loud and abrasively, similar to Officer Barbrady. When frightened or excited, they emit an odd scream, which rises in pitch: "D'uh-whoooOOOOOOO!!!!!" Adult females have breasts, and give birth by firing like a literal cannon. They have no genitals, which may be why the species went mostly extinct, so in order to make them reproduce, you would have to extract DNA from the male with a needle and syringe to inject into the female. The pregnancy is surprisingly fast. The offspring are roughly the height of human children, and are shown to be even more difficult to manage, as when they are shown in class with the human students, they couldn't seem to stop themselves from asking nonsensical questions and interrupting the entire lesson by chanting "School, school, I like school" in unison, failing to learn even a single thing while succeeding to prove a great nuisance to town.
Trivia[]
