Dhuragaua (デュラガウア) is an Ice-element Flying Wyvern featured in the Monster Hunter Frontier Season 8.0. The Dhuragaua was discovered making a nest in the Old Tower ruins, suggesting it may have avoided human contact for a long time. It is only because of the recent discovery of its Nest Hole that Dhuragaua was forced out of hiding.
Physiology
Dhuragaua has the typical body structure of a "Pseudowyvern," and is most likely related to similar monsters such as the Tigrex and Nargacuga. Its iridescent hide is covered with cyan and turqoise scales, with deep orange ridges, spikes, claws and horns. The tail terminates in a "club" covered with rounded bumps or knobs in a staggered pattern.
When enraged, Dhuragaua's tail, arms, and face will be clad in ice. Sharp icy spikes will also protrude out of its tail. When it uses ice attacks, it can inflict a new status effect called "Frostbite" (凍傷). It can do a flip attack which smashes its tail into the ground, causing a shock-wave of Sleep. The tail cannot be cut, but the spikes on it can be broken (only in rage).
Other Non-Subspecies Forms
Hard Core (HC) Dhuragaua
Able to first be hunted at SR22.
HC Dhuragaua has more vibrant colors, larger claws, longer horns and longer spikes.
Its attacks are mostly Gou Dhuragaua attacks like triple beams, double twisters and combo attacks now speed up plus a new attack where it sticks its claws in the ground then scratch's across the ground dragging its claws making twisters spin off in a circle.
Another feature that make HC Dhuragaua unique is its ability to side step evade flash bombs much like a hunter can evade a flash from a Gypceros.

Notes
General Notes
- In a Monster Hunter Frontier benchmark released by Capcom, Dhuragaua is seen attacking a hunter and Berukyurosu at the Gorge. [1].
- Dhuragaua is based on the japanese fox spirit known as a Kitsune.
- When a Dhuragaua jumps back with its tail in the air and postured with one arm ahead of it, it will wait for someone to attack it first to do a counter attack that causes KO making hunters fall on their knees.
