Rhenoplos Ecology

Habitat range
Rhenoplos are seen in the scorching desert and the Volcanic zone.

Ecological niche
Rhenoplos serve as food for many monsters, including Deviljho, Agnaktor (Volcano), among others.

Biological adaptations
While the eyes of Rhenoplos are not particularly proficient, its hearing is. Rhenoplos charge blindly at whatever sound startles them. However, this obviously makes them easy to dodge and easy food for predators of any kind so they are near the bottom of the food chain, just like any other herbivore (with the obvious exceptions of Monoblos, Diablos and Kirin).

Behaviour
These creatures live in small groups and spend most of their days traversing their hot environments while foraging for shrubs and other plant matter. However, they are fiercely territorial, charging at hunters to defend their turf. They are highly protective of their eggs, which are prized by many carnivores, including Jaggi and Uroktor.
