Coral Pukei-Pukei is a subspecies of Pukei-Pukei that can be found inhabiting the Coral Highlands.
It feeds on various plants like its cousin, but it also eats the coral eggs found in its environment like Paolumu.
- It can sometimes be seen peacefully eating coral eggs with Raphinos and Paolumu.
While Pukei-Pukei uses poison, Coral Pukei-Pukei uses water. It stores large quantities of it inside of its body and uses it as a defense against predators. Much like Pukei-Pukei, it feeds on plants to alter the way it fires water out of its mouth and tail.
Coral Pukei-Pukei is known to drink from land coral found in lower parts of the Coral Highlands. Those parts of the area are home to packs of Shamos.
