Pterowl Hazuku

Pterowl Hazuku (超竜獣オウルハズク, Chō Ryūjū Ōruhazuku, Super Dragon-Beast Owlhazuku) is a Floating/Behemoth variant of Owlbrow that appears in Event Stages and Enigma Stages.
==Enemy==
Even at 79 years old, this chimera of owl and pterosaur doesn't go down without a fight. Combining highly inconsistent Surges with stats on par with an Advent Boss, be prepared for anything too slow or long-ranged to enter Pterowl Hazuku's blind spot - which, ironically, is about the size of the regular Owlbrow's range - to suffer over 36k damage every ~5 seconds.
==Strategy==
Luckily, in all of Hazuku's appearances it barely has support or takes a long time to spawn (with the exception of Birth of True Man), making getting into its blind spot or rushing the enemies the best options. For getting into its blind spot, your best choices are Butterfly Cat, Can Can Cat (with Move Speed Up Talent), Maglev Cat, Awakened Bahamut Cat and similar units. Sadako Cat can also provide good support, and Courier Cat's Behemoth Slayer ability allows it to cripple both Pterowl Hazuku and any Wild Doges accompanying it. Radical Cat is great against it as well, thanks to his decent health, Surge immunity, Behemoth Slayer, and strength against Floating enemies. Likewise, Uber Rares specializing in melee and with enough speed also have no trouble getting within the blind spot. Pterowl Hazuku's Surge immunity matters little, as most Surge Attack Cats are completely unreliable against it anyways.

==Trivia==
*Pterowl is a portmanteau of pterosaur, a type of flying reptile from the Mesozoic Era that lived alongside dinosaurs, and owl.
*The name Hazuku is derived from Konohazuku (コノハズク), the Japanese name of the largest genus of owls, Otus.
*Pterowl Hazuku makes two different Monster Hunter references.
**It has a similar color scheme to Silver Rathalos and attacks by spitting a blue fireball born from anger, which Silver Rathalos is also known to do when enraged.
**Its design is somewhat similar to Nightcloak Malfestio, a monstrous owl with draconic wings.
*Owlbrow is stated to be 78 years old, while Pterowl Hazuku is 79.
**It can be inferred that its "years of pent-up anger" are from constantly being treated as a Floating enemy despite only walking.
