Goragoru

Goragoru is a Fanged Beast appearing in Monster Hunter Venture.

Physiology
Goragoru has the standard primate-like build seen in many Fanged Beasts. It particularly resembles a Lowland Gorilla, although it has several features that differentiate it from one. Its torso is much larger and wider than any gorilla, and the fur on its back is golden rather than silver. Its arms and are also very thick and muscular, and its knuckles are covered in golden metal-like plating. Goragoru's chest sports this same plating, and around its waist it has a small band of it as well that resembles a wrestling belt. Its head is similar to a gorilla's in appearance, but its chin and jaws are much larger and its bottom canines are longer and sharper and jut out of the mouth when it is closed. Goragoru also has noticable pads on its face like a male Bornean Orangutan, and also sports a small beard and a crest of spiky gold hair on its forehead.

Abilities
Unlike many monsters, Goragoru lacks any elemental attacks or toxins, and uses its intelligence, the environment around it, and its own brute strength to gain an advantage in fights. It can use its powerful muscles to leap large distances, and it has been observed to leap from trees and rocks in order to launch an airborne assault on predators. It also has massive arm muscles and strong hands and fingers which it uses to punch, grab, slap, and shake opponents. Goragoru is also known to throw large boulders and logs at its enemies for a form of ranged combat, and it has been seen grabbing smaller opponents and throwing them in several complex maneuvers. This indicates that Goragoru is an intelligent creature despite its brutish appearance.
