    NOTES:
    - "Old World Raptor" and "New World Raptor" are names added by me. The Runner Wyverns are indeed split into three superfamilies, but officially, only the Dog Wyverns have a name for their family.
    - There is no reason to call the species Velociprey/Velocidrome "Veloci" besides that it makes more sense for me and is not contradicted in any official material. But be aware that canonically, the species is simply called "Velociprey/drome", "Genprey/Drome" etc.

      Honestly, I just refer to the preydromes by the first part of their name (ex. Veloci or Io). It makes more sense with the greats being the same thing, but with a better naming scheme.

    For small monsters, it's easy to forget that they're still pretty threatening for regular people. An average-sized Bullfango, for example, is a little larger than a real-world wild boar, and could easily kill a typical man with a single charge, even if they'd barely scratch a hunter.

    A pair of curiosities about birdies.
    Giaprey: The reason of the subespecies debate is because in first gen exists a subespecies of velociprey known as white velociprey that was identical to giaprey without ice (first gen doesn't have ice monsters or maps)
    Genprey: Gendromes are the only dromes that can be male or female, the other dromes are always male
    Ioprey: They are the least cooperative prey, to the point they are openly cannibal and will try to eat Iodrome if they show the minimum sign of weakness
    Velociprey: They hate Rathian to the point they will ignore hunters if a Rathian is in the area and will focus on the female wyvern. That also applies to jaggi.

    It is easy to think small monsters wouldn’t present a threat to a human, since they don’t do much damage to the hunter and are easily killed, but looking at the size of some of them you can clearly tell they could easily kill a human
    An aggravated Aptonoth could stomp on a human or kill it with a tail swipe
    And a single Velociprey could take down a man

    • @JanusHoW
      @JanusHoW Год назад +2

    Given every monster got some kind of long range attack in Rise (to prevent hunters from sitting on ledges), if they had brought back Velocidrome in the Jungle I bet it would have gotten a spit attack like Izuchi has. Making it more likely Giadromes are a subspecies since the Frost Sac and spit attack are a huge difference.

    Big monster suure threaten cities and villages, but small monster cannot be spotted that easily, so imagine the chaos if a Drome or just any lost smaller menber gets inside a village... It would be similar to a Velociraptor from jurassic park doing the same, less blood thirsty at least

    • @JanusHoW
      @JanusHoW Год назад

      Ironically, it's the lower ranking monsters - the Ear Birds, the Dromes, and the Greats of the Dog Wyverns - that are the most immediate and direct threat to people.
      The apexes - Raths, Tigrex, etc - would only choose to dine on people if they had absolutely no other options. If a Tigrex were to attack a merchant's cart, it would be to go after the Popo or Aptonoth pulling the cart, and they'd probably kill the poor driver without even noticing them.
      But a hungry Yian Kut-Ku would more than likely hunt a soft, juicy person all by their lonesome as a meal, especially if they were struggling to find Hornetaurs and Konchus that day.

But in the real world scenario in the game, Aptonoths is the Hadrosaurs/Stegosaurs of their world, with their herd mentality, offensive built in their tails, massive size and heads that could counter any other predators at a Rare occasion, just like how Antelopes can charge a Lion, they can defend themselves.
