Anclosaarg

**Anclosaarg** are **Fanged Wyverns** with special tusks and long sticky tongues used to catch food.

## Physiology

They appear as Fanged Wyverns with a long body and a somewhat flat back which are colored bright red and their hides are fawn brown in color. They have dark red plates on their backs, commonly being pairs. They are also equipped with a tough brown flail with blunt spikes on it's sides and four long tusks. Their eyes are green and on the sides of their heads. They are also some of the smallest Fanged Wyverns, being larger than an Odogaron yet smaller than a Zinogre.

## Behavior

A somewhat docile and timid beast. It only really gets aggressive when it gets threatened, it's territory gets invaded by threatening foes or if it is interrupted by something from it's sleeping.

## Ecology

Anclosaarg are quite odd Fanged Wyverns. They are quite battle equipped and are able to survive well thanks to their tusks and tongue.

### Habitat Range

They are commonly found in areas with lots of fruits or insects for it to feed on. They are sometimes found in places where there's just one of the two available.

### Ecological Niche

Anclosaarg are found somewhere in the middle of the food chain. While they feed on fruits, they can also feed on Neoptreons such as Vespoid, Bnahabra, Hornetaur and even the likes of Seltas and Seltas Queen and Kouga-Koula. However it can be challenged or even preyed on by other larger monsters.

### Biological Adaptations

These Fanged Wyverns are protected by large spines or plates found on it's back. These protect it from aerial attacks and falling objects or just most attacks in general. It also has powerful hindlegs it can use to leap far or to reach targets easier. The monster also has a head made to catch targets. With it's tusks, it can catch large objects or prey such as giant fruits or large Neoptreons such as Seltas. It usually catches things using it's long stretchy and sticky tongue. It can catch almost anything, or simply reel foes towards itself. It's tail is the most muscular part of it's body and is equipped with a flail. This tail is very powerful. It can break apart rocks and tough shell alike. it is usually used to deter predators and other threats or to break apart tough shells of prey items. It can wield this with so much force that it can cause a large Brute Wyvern like Deviljho to fall over if it were hit. The Anclosaarg however does not have very good eyesight, so it has a better time smelling out scents. It is also why it is not active during night.
