Order: Elder Dragon - Suborder: Steel Dragon - Family: Kushala

Rusted Kushala Daora is a Kushala Daora that has began to rust due to oxidation with the air. Like Kushala Daora, it is classified as an Elder Dragon.

Habitat Range
Rusted Kushala Daora has been seen attacking the Town, Interceptor's Base, Polar Field, and Battlequarters.

Ecological Niche
Kushala Daora are rare top predators, and fear almost nothing. However, it is occasionally threatened by the large, fast and aggressive Tigrex and the rare powerful Rajang. They can compete with other elder dragons, especially Chameleos in the Jungle. When in the Desert these dragons may prey on the local Apceros, Genprey, Cephalos, and Cephadrome. However they have to be wary of Kuarusepusu, fellow elder dragons Teostra, Lunastra, Rukodiora and Harudomerugu along with the extremely large and powerful flightless wyvern Odibatorasu as these behemoths are more than a match for even the strongest Kushala Daora. There are reports of Kushala Daora eating mineral deposits, this may show how they manage to have a metal rust-able skin.

Biological Adaptions
Rusted Kushala Daora has the same adaptions as a normal Kushala Daora though has some minor differences. Rusted Kushala Daora's skin has rusted due to oxidation, making its skin much harder than before.

Behavior
Rusted Kushala Daora are far more aggressive than a normal Kushala Daora due to them searching for a secluded area to shed their skin.
