==Biological Adaptations==
The Kama Orugaron utilize serveral adaptations to bring down prey and fight off competition. Kama Orugaron can fire a wind blast, much like winged wyverns, though it is still unclear on how they can use this. It is speculated that it has highly developed and strong pair of lungs to use the wind blast and its roar. Another way to kill prey is to fire their sharp hair spikes at a prey item, causing severe injury, if not death, to the animal. Jumping on top of a smaller, weaker prey item would give this beast an edge, delivering a fatal neck bite. Finally, with a 180 degrees bite, a combo forward lunge and a roar that only makes it stronger, this monster is a force to be reckoned with. Also its mate, Nono Orugaron, appears to share the same moves, and they simultaneously attack a target, making for an instant dinner, or a hunters worst nightmare.

In-Game Information

Taxonomy

The Kamu, and indeed, Nono Orugaron, are a one of a kind Pelagus. Its evolutionary patterns shows its evolved differently from regular Pelagus, as its body is wolf shaped. Its maw bares the traditional canine teeth set, as well as those of sabre toothed canines, suggesting that when feeding, it sheers off chunks of meat to avoid breaking the sabres.

Its behaviour is also very dog like, as it pants and hangs its tongue out much like a dog, and also howls like a wolf. It would appear that the Kamu has a highly developed set of lungs, as it can fire a wind blast similar to the Kushala Daora. This powerful set of lungs may be the reason why hunters are sent flying backwards as it howls. This howl can also amplify its partner's attack, as well as its own. Its howl alone is a very serious threat to hunters.

The Kamu's second interesting ability is that its mohawk at first glance may seem to be simple spiked up hairs going along its back. In reality, these hairs are razor sharp and can be ejected from the Kamu's back via a strong series of muscles that line its spinal cord in which the spines are seated. In order for this to be aimed properly the Kamu must resort to flipping over the prey and firing its spikes out when its back is facing the enemy. This shows that Kamu has a great deal of agility to spare, so much so that when the Kamu performs a wind blast, hints of red energy emit from its mouth.

Habitat Range

The Kamu and Nono Orugaron are a rare species living only in the near stable environment of the swamp, where most of its competitors are slower and more docile. As the Kamu's colouration is black, it blends quite easily into the cave systems, and indeed with the floor, which may fool any Wyverns or Elder Dragons flying overhead. Of course, living in this habitat has given it a certain resilience to poison, but not in high concentrations (such as those found only in hunter weapons or throwing knives). Despite these factors, it is very outgoing along with its partner the Nono Orugaron, as most likely its brain operates on the idea that there is "strength in numbers".

Ecological Niche

It is probably one of the top predators, feeding on Bullfangos, Aptonoths, Kelbi, Genprey, and Ioprey. It also probably feeds on Bulldromes, Iodromes, and even a Yian-Kut-Ku.

It really does not have huge competition because the Gravios that can be found here mostly eat minerals. Only Gypceros with their poison, and the rare Teostra or Chameleos with their power would be a threat.

Biological Adaptations

The Kama Orugaron utilize serveral adaptations to bring down prey and fight off competition. Kama Orugaron can fire a wind blast, much like winged wyverns, though it is still unclear on how they can use this. It is speculated that it has highly developed and strong pair of lungs to use the wind blast and its roar. Another way to kill prey is to fire their sharp hair spikes at another monster or even a hunter, causing severe injury, if not death, to the animal. Jumping on top of a smaller, weaker prey item would give this beast an edge, delivering a fatal neck bite. Finally, with a 180 degrees bite, a combo forward lunge and a roar that only makes it stronger, this monster is a force to be reckoned with. Also its mate, Nono Orugaron, appears to share the same moves, and they simultaneously attack a target, making for an instant dinner, or a hunters worst nightmare.
