Possibly the cutest thing this franchise has given us yet! Just look at it!

Kulu-Ya-Ku is not only cute, but also quite interesting in terms of design. I dunno about you guys and gals, but this baby reminds me of a retro-style Oviraptor, with the way it snatches and holds rocks and eggs. So, a retro Oviraptor mixed with a dodo equals a fairly decent design. It also feels so... natural, for the lack of a better word. It genuinely looks like an actual prehistoric creature instead of a fictional chimera.

Of course, Kulu is hardly the strongest or most impressive monster in the New World, but still, it´s charming design and cute mannerisms make it stand out. My sole complaint is that we can´t keep it as a pet. I would much rather do that than either kill it or turn it into a live guinea pig for the researchers. Why can´t we befriend one by giving it a nice, juicy egg? Then we could ride it and make those egg delivery quests much more fun! Can you imagine being chased by a Rathian or by an herd of herbivores on the back of this goofy and loveable fellow?

Overall, Kulu is, by far, the most adorable monster in  the series so far, at least for me. Now give me a pet one!
