Things You May Not Know About Felyne and Melynx(Info Comes From MHF1, MHFU, MH3U, MH4U, Hunter's Encyclopedia)

Felyne
 * They can be looked at as weak though only by human standards.
 * Felyne are looked at as their own culture due to their intelligence, life style, and groups.
 * Felyne have an appearance similar to a cat though the cat paw pattern on their chest separates them from actual cats along with being almost humanoid.
 * Felyne are a lot more agile and smarter than an average cat. The Felyne are even able to walk upright like a human and even build tools with both hands before using the tools.
 * It is hard to tell what gender a Felyne is since they are known to almost always talk in first person. People have to speak and get to the know the Felyne better to figure that out.
 * With enough time and practice Felyne can learn how to talk in the same languages as other cultures, including the human language and the Wyverian language. Felyne can even show and express emotions very much like humans can.
 * Every Felyne is different in their own way. Some are aggressive while some are calm. If attacked, however, they'll attack with just about anything in their hand, even going as far as to bomb themselves to protect themselves from attacks. If the battle starts looking bad, they'll dig a hole and travel somewhere safe.
 * Felyne are known to form villages in secluded areas where most monsters wouldn't dare to venture too.
 * Their axes are made from tree branches and stones.
 * Felyne in the wild are known to have tribal exchanges with not just other Felyne but also other cultures.
 * Commonly, Felyne are seen working in all sorts human establishments or settlements. They've been seen being farmers, traders, adventurers, etc. Some Felyne known as Palicoe are even hunters.
 * Seems as though Felyne have an obsession with fire. Felyne tribes are well known for dancing around fire.
 * Pawprint Stamps have are letters left behind by Felyne. These letters are in the Felyne language, making them very hard to read.
 * The gems hunters are known to get from them are actually hairballs that were mistakenly swallowed by them.
 * Acorns are a special part of their culture.

Melynx
 * Melynx are a subspecies of Felyne with a black coat.
 * Melynx are treated and are very much like Felyne.
 * They do pretty much all the same things a Felyne does but there is some differences.
 * The Melynx's pouch is grass woven together by grass.
 * Melynx are known to wear a scarf over their mouth and a pouch on their back while carrying a stick in shape of a cat paw. The scarf is used to hide their face so no one can identified them easily.
 * Melynx are considered to be quite curious, mischievous, and active. If a hunter passes by them than they'll immediately attempt to steal an item away from them before running away and digging to a safe place. Once secluded, they'll look at the item and consider if its valuable or not. If it is valuable they'll either sell it, trade it, or give it away to another Lynian tribe. If it isn't valuable they may just intentionally leave it behind somewhere random.
 * Melynx are even known to raid villages, cities, and other settlements.
 * When about to raid a settlement, they'll actually cover themselves in flour or sand in order to impersonate a Felyne so they can easily steal what they want.
 * Very few Melynx can be found living in human society, unlike Felyne.
