NOTES:
– Avepoda is simply called "Bird Feet" in most translations.
– "Old World Raptors" and "New World Raptors" are not named as such in the official phylogeny, but they are classified in groups as shown in the video.
– All species names are made up.
– Whenever I say "native tongue", I mean the original japanese names and terms.
– Boggi wasn't included because a) we don't know where he'd go yet (probably Dog Wyvern) and b) he has no large monster equivalent. I didn't include Barnos/Mernos in the Flying Wyverns video either for that same reason.

Love the new video !! Just one question where's the love for the new boggi?? But in all seriousness where would it fit in the family??
I am so excited! Bird Wyverns are my favorite group of monsters especially the Raptors! They may not be apex predators but they often do a great job as mesopredators and due to their higher population are arguably more successful than most other monster groups.
I would love to see Leviathans next!
Gosh, I knew the Iodrome and Ioprey had poison, but I never knew they had poison on their skin and bones.
Great izuchi are actually larger than great baggi
I never understood why they were called bird wyverns considering 90% of them a raptors
It's was really interesting to look at phylogenetic tree of bird wyverns
Awesome video. Glad you mentioned the translation differences between the -dromes and the greats in a believable way to the Monster Hunter story.
Bring back the Wroggi armor
7:06 no they have not. This fan theory that Yian Garuga is a brood parasite has zero evidence behind it and doesn't even make any sense. Especially since Yian Garuga are also found in areas where Yian Kut-Ku are nowhere to be seen.
"Ear birds poses weaker fire sac compared to flying wyverns"
burned by scarred yian garuga flame machine gun
FINALLYYYYYY
YESSSSS, I love these types of videos sm
So Gia and Veloci are basically convergent evolutions
Something I am curious about is the extreme morphologic variation in flyings bird wyverns such as the 4 completely different types of wings, being 1st gen wings, 3rd gen wings, 4th gen wings and redesigned 1st gen wings. I personally would like to see future and old flying bird wyverns unified in the 4th gen malfestian morphology with broad tails and feathered wings. They have updated the designs of flying bird wyverns before, with world giving Yian Garuga getting the redesigned 1st gen wings.
I noticed a lot of convergent evolution between the runner wyverns. I'm guessing this is a result of their flightlessness not allowing a single species to occupy similar environments at the other side of the continent. Thus the local species evolve to fill the niche
I bet they’re hiding great boggi for the next monster hunter, he’s too strong for us rn 🗿
Let’s go, finally a video on the best class of wyvern
I think jaggia and pukei-pukei are cute.
Awesome!
I wonder if you’ll do a documentary on leviathans in Monster Hunter.
species endemic to the new world should have been kept to the new world
rise breaks too many rules with this. Not saying rise is bad it's just really confusing that so many things from the new world suddenly appeared in the old world.
Yeah Boggi doesn't exist, they are only in our fantasy XD
Thanks!
I kinda miss Great Jaggi to be honest. He was a punching bag but he was THE punching bag. Also it makes no sense for other games to have jaggis and jaggia but no great jaggi. Same for stuff like velociprey and no velocidrome
If through the bird wyvern family is considered to be the weakest family of monster (not include herbivores and bugs), i consider them also the most versatile one, that can be found eny where. Every biome got 1 or 2 bird wyverns as basis, and sometimes even some big shots like garuga or malfestio. Also liked the part when not all got the same strategy, some got bigger numbers some got better team work, some just go chaotic ape-shit(maccao and garuga xd). I wish for some true bird wyvern that fly as a pack, and some big lone raptors for high/master rank.
Thanks for watching?! Thank you for making these vids
Jaggi time bby let's go
Why are they called "Dog" Wyverns??
Bro… the craziest documentary in terms of sheer length and information to break down would be either a flying Wyvern one or an Elder Dragon one.
Either way one of those documentaries would be godsend to listen too.
I’m currently in college and I actually listen to these while I’m at work or working on an assignment.
Great video as always 🙂
Just a quick note though, `Superfamily` seems to be mis-spelled in the individual species block. Not a huge deal, but now that I've noticed it, it kind of sticks out.
14:41 Django Dodgebolt spotted! He's as beautiful as the day we lost him
What about the dog face one that's located in citadel
One interesting thing is the Wroggis weakness to ice.
The cold would cause the liquid poison in their poison sacs to freeze, which could cause internal damage or could even have a Wroggis repsiratory system blocked, making them suffocate.
There’s not mention for the Jaggia?
Thanks.
I love that nod to the Japanese naming conventions for the dog wyverns! It would make sense in universe with how many different cultural groups there are who likely have their own linguistic paths and the way communication isn't exactly instant between major guild centers and these villages.
As a bonus fact, Korean translations still call them Dos(u) too, I got a kick out of it when I was playing 4u on my Korean cart.
In which family does Great Girros, Royal Ludroth and Great Jagras fall?
5:24 Why do you treat "kut-ku" and "garuga" as genuses when they aren't properly capitalized in their scientific names? Why did you use "Yian" as the genus for those cases instead?
17:24 Same goes for here: why use "Ya-ku" as the genus in the scientific name, despite what is said above it?
18:33 Ok, now you're just confusing species name with genus. Seriously, these taxonomic naming errors need to be checked.
I never noticed that the Izuchi snuggle😊
I wish that we will get something similar to macao in the future but with more inspirations from tree kangaroos.
21:05 I thought you said they had no scales?
