Shamos are Fanged Wyverns first introduced in Monster Hunter: World.
Physiology[]
Shamos has a wolf-like body shape with huge orange cat-like eyes. Though its body shape is akin to a wolf, Shamos' appearance is very similar to fish. Its cat-like face is covered in red scales while the rest of its body is covered in grayish-white splotches. Its limbs are navy blue in color. Shamos also has a small fin on its back like a fish.
Behavior and Abilities[]
Shamos has unusually large eyes that allow it to see in pure darkness. Shamos are aggressive hunters that will attack in small packs. They will often group together in order to scare off potential predators such as Tzitzi-Ya-Ku. They are blinded easily and will retreat most of the time when they are exposed to light sources, or if a hunter throws fire in their direction. Shamos dislike Tzitzi-Ya-Ku in particular due to its blinding flash.[1]
Habitat[]
Shamos can be found in dark spaces of the Coral Highlands during the day, emerging mostly at night. They can also be found in the coral section of the Guiding Lands.
