The Black Tigrex is a Pseudowyvern. It has few differences from the [[Tigrex|normal variation]], other than coloration and habitat. Some of its differences include its habitat of preference, volcanoes, which contrasts to that of the regular Tigrex (which inhabits the [[Snowy Mountains]]). Despite these differing adaptations, both subspecies are able to survive in the [[Sandy Plains]]. This subspecies of Tigrex boasts more powerful and more swift attacks and, also the ability to cause Fireblight. Black Tigrex also has an improved version of a normal Tigrex's "wail".

Brute Tigrex have been seen in the [[Volcano (3rd)]], [[Volcanic Hollow]], [[Sandy Plains]], [[Everwood]], [[Dunes]], [[Primal Forest]], [[Elder's Recess]], and [[Guiding Lands]].
This dark-colored wyvern is found exclusively in volcanic areas, which would imply that the Black Tigrex is better suited to much hotter environments than the normal Tigrex. It has also adapted its pattern of attacks to better utilise its surroundings, like its thrust, which will send waves of magma that cause fireblight. It can also use strata from the volcanic grounds as hurling stones. As it is capable of charging through lava, it is considered in theory that its scales have adapted to be resistant to the extreme heat of lava.

Black Tigrex's role as top predator is no different than that of Tigrex. Its only known competitors include [[Agnaktor]], [[Rathalos]], [[Bracchidios]], [[Deviljho]] (which occasionally ventures into the volcano). A fully-grown [[Uragaan]] may also present a threat to a Black Tigrex, although a confrontation between the two would seem unlikely, due to the lack of competition between them. Since food is scarce in the volcano, the Black Tigrex may occasionally be forced to hunt an immature Uragaan. Unlike the Tigrex, Black Tigrex doesn't seem to travel to temperate areas to prey on [[Popo]], so it definitely needs to make the most of all prey at the volcano. It may hunt [[Rhenoplos]], [[Rangurotora]], [[Zuwaroposu]], [[Uroktor]], immature Uragaan, and the [[Furogi]] and [[Dosufurogi]] that live in the lower levels of the Volcano. It is quite territorial, attacking anything that it has set in sight its boundary, especially hunters.

Just as Tigrex has coloration suited to both tropical sandy deserts and freezing snowy landscape, the Black Tigrex has just the right coloration to blend in with the Volcano's cliffs and crevices. Recent research has confirmed that this altered coloration is the result of extreme heat causing volcanic ash and other such impurities to fuse to the Tigrex's shell. However, the presence of this ash seems to make its shell less effective at insulating heat, leaving the Black Tigrex vulnerable to cold temperatures as well as ice-based weaponry.

Being extremely aggresive, it will even challenge, and possibly kill, a Rathalos if confronted or challenged for territory. It will fiercely attack hunters on sight. It is also quite stubborn, recklessly attacking like a stampede, even when it's extremely wounded by its foe. It would appear that it is more intelligent in attacking than its normal counterpart, making it quite a challenge to hunters. The heat of the volcanic region might contribute to its reckless behaviour, as the heat would allow it to maintain its body temperature without wasting its own energy doing so. It is assumed that they require more food to survive than an ordinary Tigrex due to a less efficient digestive system, hence the increased aggression.

In-Game Information

MH4-Brute Tigrex Icon

"A subspecies of Tigrex, these beasts are as brutal as they are ravenous. They prefer volcanic regions, but can be found in a range of areas. Their howls are even more piercing than standard Tigrex roars and send shockwaves far and wide."

Taxonomy

  • Order: Saurischia
  • Suborder: Wyvern Feet
  • Family: Rex

The Brute Tigrex is a Flying Wyvern. Its closest relatives are Tigrex, Molten Tigrex, Dyuragaua, and Mi Ru.

Habitat Range

Brute Tigrex have been seen in the Volcano (3rd), Volcanic Hollow, Sandy Plains, EverwoodDunes, Primal Forest, Elder's Recess, and Guiding Lands.

Ecological Niche

Brute Tigrex's role as a top predator is no different than that of Tigrex. It may hunt Rhenoplos, Volvidon, Slagtoth, Uroktor, and the Wroggi and Great Wroggi that live in the lower levels of the volcano. Brute Tigrex are also well known to attack other Tigrex on sight.

Biological Adaptations

Just as Tigrex has coloration suited to both sandy deserts and freezing snowy landscape, the Brute Tigrex has just the right coloration to blend in with the volcano's cliffs and crevices. It is confirmed that this altered coloration is the result of extreme heat causing volcanic ash, and other such impurities, fusing to this Tigrex's shell. These impurities have made Brute Tigrex's hide stronger, while also giving it better resistance to the Thunder Element. Due to living in the harsher volcano, Brute Tigrex's roar has become stronger compared to a normal Tigrex. This is due to the Brute Tigrex's roar not easily being heard in the harsher volcanic environments.

Behavior

Brute Tigrex appear much more aggressive and more maniacal in attacking in comparison to Tigrex. Brute Tigrex has been found to have a high metabolism, which could explain its aggressive nature.
