Sokoju

Sokoju (that comes from the words Soko Ju in japanese that mean armored beast) is a zinogre sized fanged wyvern that looks like an armadillo. It is first introduced in MHD.

Intro
''The hunter is walking in the desert and spots a large, dark figure on the horizon. The hunter steps further to examine more closely before the figure rolls towards the hunter viciously (Sokoju theme starts). It then rears up ready to pounce on the hunter. Thus the fight begins.''

Ecology
Sokoju are found in large, desolate areas such as deserts and Volcanoes. The sokoju resemble a large, jakal like armadillo. They have a grainy dirty coloration and feed on neopterons. These beasts are known to travel alone unless mating in which the male and female make nest underground. Sokoju cubs, as there're called are very docile ,when recovered from a nesting ground, and will become a trustworthy companion throughout your monster hunting journey.

Attacks
These creatures are docile when mating but when alone are not a foe to be under-estimated. They will roll, swing their tail and anything in their power to cart you silly. They even risk their dinner to defeat you by throwing angry Bnahabra, Vespoid and altaroth to keep you off their land. Sokoju also are very social and when another Sokoju is nearby they will help their comrade in anyway they can.
